The instrument used for thepurposes of the research was the Parental Behavior Questionnaire URP29.Results: The research showed that there was a statistically significant difference in intrusiveness between fathers and mothers. Mothers showed significantly more intrusive behavior compared to fathers, but on the other hand, no statistically significant difference in punishment was found due to parents' gender. No statistically significant difference was found in warmth, autonomy and parental knowledge with respect to the level of education, while a statistically significant difference was found in inductive reasoning with respect to the level of education. Parents with a secondary education level showed significantly more inductive reasoning compared to parents with a higher educationlevel. No statistically significant difference was found between the other groups.Conclusion: Mothers have more control over their behavior and the imposition of it, while fathers are more flexible in raising their children. Parents with secondary education level provide their children with greater support and the possibility of choice. Parental education that is full of care and love will enable the healthy development of children.Keywords: connection, parental behavior, upbringing of children, elementary school
