Parent child relationship and home environment among teenagers

Parents are among the most important people in the lives of young
children. From birth, children are learning and rely on mothers and
fathers, as well as other caregivers acting in the parenting role, to
protect and care for them and to chart a trajectory that promotes their
overall well-being. While parents generally are filed with anticipation
about their children's unfolding personalities, many also lack
knowledge about how best to provide for them.
Many different relationships people form over the course of the life
span, the relationship between parent and child is among the most
important. The quality of the parent-child relationship is affected by
the parent's age, experience and self-confidence, the stability of the
parent's marriage and the unique characteristics of the child compared
with those of the parent.
At the same time this study was fundamentally informed by
recognition that the task of ensuring children, s healthy development
does not rest solely with parents or families.
