Abstract

In the family, parenting style directly affects children's behavior. Few researches supported the correlation between parenting style and children's behavioral problems. The purpose of the study was to assess the relationship between perceived parenting style and behavior problems among school age children. A Descriptive correlational design was used to achieve the purpose of this study. Setting: primary schools in Qaliubiya Governorate, which are affiliated to the Ministry of Education. Subject: Multistage random sample of 600 students were selected from primary schools in Qaliubiya Governorate. Instruments of data collection:  Two instruments were used; one instrument was used to assess perceived parenting styles. Another instrument was used to assess behavior problems among school age children. Results: Lying was highly present between 32.3% of children, harassment and teasing was moderately present between 31.2% of them and stealing was moderately found between 27% of children. There was highly significant negative correlation between parents' total parenting style pattern and behavior problems among students at p < 0.0001. Conclusion: The most commonly perceived parenting styles were acceptance, tolerance, equilibrium, caring and equality were negatively correlated with harassment, rebellion and disobedience, lying, aggression, stealing and truancy. Neglectful parenting is correlated with sharp increases in children's behavior problems. Recommendations:The study recommended that educational program should be given to the parents focused on providing acceptance, tolerance, equilibrium, caring and equality when dealing with children.
