<![CDATA[This study was motivated by the important role of parents in supporting the achievement of adolescents’ social developmental tasks. Social behavior in the community needs to be instilled from an early age through parental role modeling to prevent social problems in society. This study aims to examine the role of parents in supporting the achievement of adolescents’ social developmental tasks in Simpang Ayam Village and to identify the factors that influence it. This study employed a descriptive qualitative method. The primary informants were parents who had children aged 16–21 years in Simpang Ayam Village, while supporting informants consisted of the village head, traditional leaders, religious leaders, and neighbors. Data were collected through observation, interviews, and documentation. Data analysis techniques included classification, reduction, description, data presentation, and conclusion drawing. The results showed that parents played a role in shaping adolescents’ social behavior through habituation, role modeling, advice, rewards, and punishment. However, these roles had not been implemented optimally, resulting in the achievement of adolescents’ social developmental tasks not being fully optimal. Factors contributing to the less optimal role of parents included economic limitations, the large number of siblings in the family, and the low educational level of parents.]]>
