This study aims to analyze the effect of parental bonding on self-esteem in adolescent children. This study used a cross-sectional design and an associative quantitative approach. Data collection be done in 2022 in the Jakarta area. Respondents in this study were 81 adolescents who were selected using a purposive sampling technique. This study collected data on respondent characteristics, parental bonding, and self-esteem. The research variable measurement instrument comprised 25 parental bonding items and ten self-esteem items variables. Each statement has four response options: strongly agree, agree, disagree, and strongly disagree. Data processing uses descriptive statistics and simple linear regression tests. The study results show that adolescent self-esteem is in the medium category. Adolescents also have a level of closeness with their parents in the medium category. The simple linear regression test results show that parental bonding significantly affects adolescent self-esteem (β=0.763, p<0.01). Based on these results, parental bonding can increase self-esteem in adolescents. The closer the relationship between parents and adolescents, the better the adolescent's self-esteem. Thus, increasing the closeness between parents and children can be a solution to increase self-esteem in children, especially adolescents.
