their children. Nevertheless, almost half of them do that every day and one third of them do that once or twice a week. It has been found that there is a
significant difference between income state and frequency of pocket-money.

of the parents have not replied the question about this topic. The obstacles
which caused parent participation shall be determined by the school
administration and these obstacles should be eliminated. More than half of
the parents have stated that mothers attend the parents’ meeting. This result

fathers. A great majority of parents remark that they play game with their
children. This is positive in terms of instrumental social support. Because, it

social support. Because, allocated time to television and parents involvement
which have direct or indirect effects are variables in student achievement.
