This study explores the impact of parent-child relationships on the development of teenagers' personalities and self-esteem. Using a sample size of 160 participants, including parents and children aged 10 to 19, correlations were analyzed using Pearson's product-moment method in SPSS. The findings reveal significant associations between certain personality traits and parent-child interactions, such as the negative link between neuroticism and conscientiousness and the positive correlation between neuroticism and conflicts. Additionally, traits like conscientiousness and neuroticism exhibit relationships with extraversion, while agreeableness correlates positively with dependence and negatively with neuroticism. Notably, conflicts and aspects of parent-child relationships such as dependency and closeness are positively associated with self-esteem. These results underscore the substantial influence of parent-child connections on the formation of teenage personalities and self-esteem.
