Abstract

Digital media plays a crucial role as a primary source of information, reference, and inspiration in shaping parenting communication styles, particularly among younger parents such as Generation Z. Gen Z parents actively access social media content to gain insights into more empathetic and adaptive communication patterns for their children's needs. This study aims to understand how digital media consumption, particularly through the Instagram account @talkparenting, influences the parenting communication styles of Gen Z parents aged 23–28. This study employed a descriptive qualitative approach with data collection techniques through in-depth interviews and digital documentation of eight purposively selected informants. The results indicate that social media is not only a source of information but also functions as an agent of socialization of new values and norms in family communication practices. Gen Z parents tend to adopt an affective communication style—which emphasizes empathy, emotional validation, and acceptance—and an adaptive directive, a parenting approach that remains directive yet flexible and supportive of children's development. The educational content on the @talkparenting account serves as a primary reference in shaping their understanding of positive communication, conflict resolution, and emotional regulation in parent-child relationships. These findings support Kaplan and Haenlein's (2010) theory regarding the role of social media as an interactive platform that facilitates social learning and the transformation of interpersonal communication styles. This study highlights the importance of improving digital literacy among young parents, as well as the need to develop positive, educational, and relevant parenting content to support the formation of healthy communication patterns within the family. Thus, social media has great potential to become a strategic partner in supporting more conscious, reflective, and value-based parenting practices. Keywords: Communication Styles, Gen Z, Digital Media, Parenting, Communication Theory.

Abstract

The rapid development of digital technology has brought significant changes to the dynamics of interpersonal communication between parents and adolescents. The presence of digital media in family life has not only shifted interaction patterns from face-to-face communication to technology-mediated communication, but has also generated various challenges, including conflict, differences in perception, and the need for communication adjustment between parents and adolescents. This article aims to analyze the dynamics of parent–adolescent interpersonal communication in the digital era through a literature review approach. This study employs a qualitative descriptive literature review method. Data are collected from relevant scholarly sources, including national and international journal articles, academic books, and scientific publications that discuss family communication and adolescent digital media use. Data analysis is conducted using content analysis to identify major themes related to changes in communication patterns, parent–adolescent conflict, negotiation processes, and the maintenance of emotional closeness within families. The findings indicate that digital media plays an ambivalent role in family communication. Poorly managed digital media use may intensify conflict between parents and adolescents, while adaptive and dialogic interpersonal communication can strengthen emotional closeness. Therefore, the quality of interpersonal communication remains a key factor in maintaining harmonious parent–adolescent relationships in the digital era.
