Abstract

Background: This study investigates the influence of parenting styles on tantrum incidence among toddlers in the work area of Labuhan Ruku Public Health Center. Using a descriptive-analytic method with a cross-sectional design, the study involved 40 respondents. The results indicate that neglectful parenting was the most prevalent style, while distress tantrums were the most common type. A significant association (p = 0.005) was found between parenting styles and tantrum types. These findings highlight the need for parenting interventions to reduce tantrum behavior in toddlers.
