The paper includes the psychological aspect of the Impact of Parenting style as related to the individual personality of parents and compares it with children’s social behavior. The reasoning of this study is to empirically analyze the associations among different types of personality traits and the influence of parent’s teaching styles on their children by comparing their social behavior. Design/Approach: A total of 150 responses were taken from both the variables, that is, first for the parenting style and then comparing that with the children’s social behavior. The age that was selected for social behavior was between (16 - 22). The sample was grouped based on age, gender, and experience. The questionnaire that addressed the variables’ particular characteristics was adjusted to match the instrument used to evaluate them. Parents and the children were informed about the purpose of the study, and prior consent was taken. The Likert scale is used to measure the scores of both variables for measuring different variables like behavioral problems, social vulnerability, authoritative, permissive, etc [1]. The test was given to both groups to complete in each period.
