Gratitude and Perception of Parental Contribution among Emerging Adults

Abstract

The major goal is to understand the interaction of parents and adults. It is extremely necessary to understand how, parents perceive, understand their children needs, problems, priorities and career decisions at this adulthood stage. The objective of my study is to analyze how children perceive their parents' financial, emotional, and other type of support, and how much it means to them. (Steinberg, 2001). It will also instill a sense of responsibility in children, making them aware of the sacrifices and efforts their parents make for them. (Furman & Buhrmester, 1992). It plays a key role in teaching moral values, toughness, and self-worth, which shape behavior and coping strategies in adult life (Amato, 2010). Examining this association in terms of cultural norms, family dynamics, and social expectations can play a part in developing effective interventions for the promotion of healthy individual and family development (Chou et al., 2021).
