Abstract:
Background: ADHD affects 7.8% of the school-aged population, making it one of the most common childhood brain illnesses. It is characterized by abnormally high levels of inattention, activity, and impulsivity at a young age. Being a parent of a child with ADHD is a real challenge, as the parents tend to be more disapproving, critical, and provide more impulse control directions such parenting style can have an impact on the illnesses course, accentuate its signs and symptoms, and lead to secondary development co-morbid psychiatric and behavioral problems. This makes the parent-child effect a matter of clinical importance that needs to be carefully carefully assessed and managed. We aimed to estimate the sociodemographic and clinical correlates of parenting attitudes among parents having ADHD children. This cross-sectional study included 48 ADHD children from both sexes, aged from 6–12 years old and their parents. In our study , We applied the Stanford-Binet intelligence scale 5th edition ,the Conner’s Parent Rating Scale-revised, the Parenting style as perceived by children questionnaire and Fahmy and El-Sherbini questionnaire for measurement of socioeconomic status. Results: Mothers of ADHD children had significantly lower scores of over-protections parenting style than the fathers; the current study showed a significant increase in total parenting scores, warmth/support in mild ADHD cases there than in moderate and severe ones, there is a significant increase in mother positive parenting style toward ADHD children with lower levels of social problems, mild cases, and older age. There is a significant increase of positive parenting style toward ADHD children exerted by post graduated, professionally working, and high social class fathers, and by working mothers, among rural residents, and high social class mothers. There is a positive correlation between IQ and a mother’s warmth/support
