Abstract

The relationship of parenting skills and practices to children's school achievement has been the subject of much research in the last decade (Bee et al., 1982; Bradley & Caldwell, 1980; Bradley, Caldwell, & Rock, 1988; Estrada, Arsenic, Hess, & Holloway, 1987; Hess, Holloway, Dickson, & Price, 1984; Ramey, Farran, & Campbell, 1979). The research has indicated that the foundation for children's school achievement begins with factors pertaining to the parents' education, home environment, availability of play materials, and socioeconomic status (Wadsworth, 1986).
