Results: The common aspects of all the studies involved in meta-synthesis are that the democratic parental attitudes are achieved in a way that positively affects children’s social skills and that other parental attitudes are adversely affected. Together with the studies indicating that there is a low level of relationship between behavioral problems and parental attitudes and that there is no relationship, when the sub -dimensions of the studies are examined, it is seen that the attitudes of the parents are influential on the behaviors of the children. Conclusion: Parental involvement has a significant influence on the children’s social development and behavior, and there are many variables that affect the relationship between the child and the parent.
