In this era of development, becoming successful is more important in life as well as in education. Prioritizing the needs new curriculum was launched, where everyone is concerned about the development of child personality, the two parties are involved in cognitive development (Teachers and parents) both are playing prominent role on the psychology of the child. accountability on the both sections but in this context, we want to emphasize more on the parenting of the child because more of the time child spend with the parents so if the need of the child was underestimated by parents as child has emotional bond with them. Carelessness in choosing the right practice will lead the child directionless. Adolescence is a developmental stage for personality shaping. According to Hartley and Somerville (2015) greater autonomy is much needed in this phase of adolescence.

For the better future of the child every parent is worried but the equal importance should be provided to the mental stability of the child. Good parenting can lead to constructive future, bad parenting can destroy a child. Parenting is super important for how your career turns out. The word 'parenting' comes from a Latin word that means 'to bring up, teach, or care for.' It's basically all the things parents do to help their kids grow up well. According to Hoghughi in 2004, parenting is about parents purposefully doing things to make sure their kids stay safe and grow up happy and healthy.

Understanding how parenting works is like exploring a big, diverse garden. Different cultures have different ways of doing things. This affects how kids are raised and what they aim for in life. It's like how some plants need lots of sun and others need more water. Learning about these differences helps us see how parents influence what their kids want to do when they grow up.
