Abstract

Limited time among mothers working in the industrial sector can pose challenges in providing attentive parenting and support for children’s development of discipline and learning motivation. Mindful parenting is a parenting approach that emphasizes full presence, self-control, acceptance, and positive communication in interactions with children. This study aimed to analyze the effect of mindful parenting on children’s discipline and learning motivation among mothers working in the industrial sector. This study employed a quantitative approach with an ex post facto design. The population consisted of 709 mothers working in the industrial sector who had children aged 2.5–6 years, with a sample of 120 mothers. Data were collected using questionnaires and analyzed using descriptive statistics and simple linear regression. The results showed that mindful parenting had a positive and significant effect on children’s discipline, with a calculated t-value of 2.794 > the t-table value of 1.658 and a significance value of < 0.001. Mindful parenting also had a positive and significant effect on children’s learning motivation, with a calculated t-value of 1.706 > the t-table value of 1.658 and a significance value of 0.016. The study concludes that mindful parenting plays a role in supporting children’s discipline and learning motivation among mothers working in the industrial sector. The findings imply that the implementation of mindful parenting through attentive presence, positive communication, consistent guidance, and emotional support can serve as a parenting approach to strengthen children’s discipline and learning motivation.
