Abstract:
Parentification is a hot topic of psychological research abroad and in Taiwan, China in recent
years, which shows a distorted family relationship: parents expect their children to act as their own parents
in this relationship to assume responsibilities beyond their age. This article introduces the historical
origin and current research status of parenting from five aspects: its concept, manifestation, formation
and development, influencing factors, and impact on children’s development. Finally, it expounds the
development and prospects for future parenting research, with a view to providing assistance for future
research on parenting localization.
