Description

Abstract: Parents  are the most responsible persons in the upbringing of the children.  Positive  parenting  supports  a  child  to  become  good  person  and citizen. We always think  seriously about the value-based education, formation and  training  given  to  the  children  to  be  effective  citizens  of  the  society. However,  we  think  less  of  the  formation  and  education  given  to  the  parents who have to mould the behaviour and character of the children. In the modern society where the challenges to family life are more, where the parents struggle to meet the expectations of the children, a parent should be equipped to handle the  responsibility  of  parenting  with  proper  knowledge,  attitude,  aptitude  and skills.  If  so,  parents  need  proper training  and  education. Mixed  methodology is used for the study. The result of this study shows that majority of the parents do  not have  any  orientation  or training in  preparation to their marital life  or parental  responsibility.  Hence,  the  study  comes  out  with  the  most  important suggestion  of  need  and  importance  of  parenting  education  in  the  modern society
