379

Abstract

The article presents the analysis of national and foreign studies of the role of parental behavior in the development of self-regulation in adolescents. The role of fathers and mothers in the development of self-regulation in adolescents, the interdependence of the behavior of children and parents are the main points of interest. In the article, the characteristics of the types of parental control and data on the reduction of problem behavior in adolescents in case of awareness and involvement on the part of parents are introduced. We also consider the consequences of negative parental practices for the formation of self-regulation and self-control in adolescents. The articles discusses the role of parenting styles in the development of self-regulation in children with the focus on the heterogeneity of data and the ambiguity of the negative impact of authoritarian upbringing It also emphasizes the relevance of the issue of the possibilities of supporting self-regulation of adolescents by parents, which was confirmed during the pandemic and thus encourages further research for reasons of current conditions of high social uncertainty.
