Article Main Content

Starting from the fact that the role of parents in creating work habits and a positive attitude towards school is of great benefit for the development of students. The aim of this empirical research is to determine the involvement of parents in the performance of school obligations of children of younger school age. The research was conducted on a sample of one hundred and sixty-five parents of children of younger school age. Parents are of the opinion that children are overloaded with school materials, and that teachers are not too demanding in working with students. In addition to obstacles, such as overwork, fatigue, ignorance of the material, parents set aside a certain amount of time every day (between 45 minutes and 60 and 120 minutes) for learning with children and fulfilling school obligations. Although the modern age imposes many endeavors, the views of parents are positively directed towards involvement and commitment in the process of learning and working with children at home.
