Abstract
The present study examined impact of parenting and child abuse on maternal wellbeing. A sample size of 200 pregnant women was selected from the hospital settings by purposive sampling technique. Flourishing Scale, the Alabama Parenting Questionnaire Parent Form (APQ-P) and ISPCAN Child Abuse Screening Tool—Parent version (ICAST-P)were used. The results indicated that there is a significant negative relation and impact between maternal well-being and child abuse. The relationship of maternal wellbeing is significantly positive and predictable with involvement, positive parenting and inconsistent discipline. However, maternal wellbeing is significantly negatively associated and predicted with poor monitoring and corporate punishment. The interpretation of quantitative content analysis revealed parenting techniques mothers used as appropriate means to discipline their children.
