ABSTRACT:- The study examined the influence of parents on children’s emotional adjustment in selected secondary schools in Lagos State. The descriptive survey research design was used in this study in order to assess the opinions of the respondents using the questionnaire. A total of three hundred and twenty (320) samples were used in this study to represent the entire population of the respondents. Four (4) null hypotheses were tested in this study using t-test statistical tool at 0.05 level of significance while one was tested using the chi-square statistical tool. The following results were obtained:
1. The role of parents affect their children’s emotional adjustment in school.
2. Difference exists between intact/single parents and their influence on emotional adjustment of students.
3. There is a significant gender difference in emotional adjustment of students due to parental discipline.
4. There is a significant difference between the emotional adjustment of students who are brought up by parental discipline and those who were not.
5. There is a significant difference between the social adjustment of students who are brought up by parental discipline and those without parental discipline.
At the end of the study, it is recommended that parents should rear up their children with good discipline and not leave them to behave as they like. Parents should not spare the rod, in order not to spoil the child. Rather, children should be taught the proper way they should behave and then, it will be difficult for them to depart from those expected values and norms they were taught by their own parents.
