Chapter 1: Introduction
A. Background of the Study
Parental support is one of the greatest factors that impact the academic
performance of a child’s education which are closely associated to
emotional, financial and educational support. Academic performance of a
child is not only solely and totally linked to its grade’s totality, it also
encompasses in how and what kind of home environment they are in.
Situations wherein a parental financial support is in a huge deficit could
greatly affect to school activities where money is necessarily needed.
Parental support and the academic performance of student are fundamentally

interdependent. In a country wherein close family ties are absolutely and
always practiced, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that these factors are
closely linked to each other. Especially to catholic schools such as SPUD
which caters family oriented discipline and etiquette through the holy 5 C’s.
Academic support is defined as the provision of the facilities needed by the

child and the resources needed for their socialization. Emotional support in
the form of encouragement and assistance in homework of the child is also a
part of academic support (Birch and Ladd 1996).
A parental guidance and support is absolutely necessary to create a child

leading in advance academic performance with its unwavering maximum
potential. The researchers believe that without such precious ingredient to
nurture a child, it could be a perilous advent to achieve such massive feat.

Review of Related Literature
A significant interaction between perceived social support and household income: perceived
social support was negatively associated with parent’s reports of positive behavior, but mainly
when income was low. (Patricia Y hashima, Paul R amato, child development 65(2), 394-403,
1994)
Students experienced a significant decline in grade point average across the transition from
elementary to middle school. Students who felt more academically efficacious had higher grade
point averages across the transition than did their peers. Significant interactions were found
between family and school factors. These suggest rather than focusing exclusively on either
parental involvement or the school environment, the combination of both families and school
factors may be most effective in supporting the academic achievements of poor students (the role
of protective factors in supporting the academic achievements, 29(2), 223-224, 2000)
No significant relationship between parenting styles and enrollment in honors courses. However,
the results indicated that father's education level and two parent family structures are positive
predictors of grade point average (GPA) and father's expectations is a negative predictor of GPA.
(Erik M Hines, Cheryl holcomb-Mccoy, journal of counseling and development 91(1), 68-
77,2013)
The importance of parental involvement, emphasizing the areas of mandated parental

involvement, achievement/behavior, and empowerment will be discussed. Factors contributing to
the lack of parental support as well as recommendations for increasing the levels of parental
support will be presented. (Michelle Franzier Trotman, Journal of negro education 70(4), 275-
285, 2001)
The author tested a model hypothesizing those students self perceived academic support from
parents is related to their own perceived academic engagement (Jennifer Jun-Li Chen, Genetic,
Social, and general psychology monographs 131(2), 77-127, 2005)
With regards to those skills critical for academic success, research has revealed that multiple
interacting factors in the child home contribute to children's literacy, numeracy, language, and
social, skills starting early in life and continuing throughout the school years (Morrison,
Bachman, & Conner, 2005)
