Self-concept and level of aspiration of adolescent girls

Adolescence is a time that is accompanied by numerous emotional upheavals and strange physiological “developments”, which could colour this period in the life of individual negatively. The importance of home in the development of an individual is very significant. When both parents are alive and they provide a good environment for the child, the personality of the child grows well. Healthy home cast healthy impact on the growing body, mind and heart of the child. The attitude of parents towards the children affects their behaviour towards other. Loving parents produce loving children, where as hostile parents produce hostile children. There is a positive relationship between rejection by parents and lack of internal control and aggression in children. Families are believed to be the first, the closest and most influential social group in the child’s life.
