Summary/Abstract: The perception of high school adolescents towards parental assistance and conduct is manifested through a remarkable variety, contingent on multiple dimensions, including the particular parent-child bond, the domestic context, cultural and social principles, along with the individual characteristics of the adolescent. However, certain patterns and influential factors can be distinguished that shape how adolescents perceive parental assistance and behavior. These students particularly value parents who actively listen, are open to dialogue about their dilemmas, and offer advice or support. Parental involvement in the adolescent's educational development and in the wider school context is also valued. Participation in school activities, interest in academic results and progress, as well as assistance in choosing a professional path are significant elements. Emotional support proves to be fundamental, with adolescents needing trust and encouragement from parents to cultivate self-efficacy and navigate age-specific challenges. Also, teenagers value parents who approach them with respect and give them a considerable degree of autonomy. Allocating trust in adolescents' ability to make decisions and manage responsibilities favors the strengthening of a balanced parental relationship. Parents who promote perseverance and support learning from negative experiences are perceived in a favorable light.
