EFFECT OF PARENTING AGAINST MORAL DEVELOPMENT OF CHILDREN AGED 4-10 YEARS
Abstract
Children's moral development has become an interesting issue lately to be the center of research attention. Many aspects
are variables that can affect a child's moral development, one of which is parenting. To analyze which type of parenting
gives the biggest contribution to children's moral development, a study was conducted by taking a sample of 308 parents
who have children between 6-10 years in Patumbak District. Data retrieval is done using the Google-form platform with
a questionnaire designed and tested for validity. The collected data is then analyzed using multiple linear regression
techniques. The results showed that permissive parenting had the most dominant influence on children's moral
development followed by democratic parenting, while authoritarian parenting did not significantly influence.
