<![CDATA[This study is a qualitative research aimed at analyzing the communication patterns between parents and adolescents experiencing depression using the theory proposed by Diana Baumrind.

The study revealed that the authoritarian communication pattern applied by parents can exert pressure on adolescents, causing them to feel unsafe in expressing their feelings.
