The present study investigated the parental involvement of the Filipino mothers and fathers on their child's school-related behaviors. The study made use of Tan's (1989) typology of fathers (procreator, dillitante, determinative, and generative) and Umali-Razon's (1981) typology of mothers (permissive, loving, controlling, and autonomy).
