According to this article, authoritative parenting is related to bad academic outcomes like

school attendance, ambition, and accomplishment, while parental involvement is connected

to good academic results like school engagement, encouragement, and accomplishment.

However, just a few research look in depth at boys' and girls' perceptions of mothers ’ and

fathers stress and strain. It may be especially important when it comes to girls' and boys'

performance in
STEM topics, since boys and girls may benefit differentially from family pressure/support in

STEM courses, and likewise .This research attempted to throw information on the subject by

evaluating possible within-student and over-time connections among children' perceptions of

parental pressure/support and results in math and science. This was used to develop

multigroup cross-lagged models with self-report information from 1,088 eighth graders at T1

(Mage = 13.70, SD = 0.53, 54 percent girls) in Brandenburg, Germany. The findings show

that there have been gender disparities in the interaction of pupils' scores in math and science,

as well as their perceptions of pressure from parents and support. While maternal support is

positively related with girls' STEM accomplishment and other parental factors over time, it is

inversely connected with boys' mathematics overall performance. Within-time connections

demonstrate that males, unlike girls, do not get any parental encouragement for their

achievement in mathematics or biology. Finally, the findings indicate that the link between

teenage STEM success and parental pressure/support is more one-way than bi-directional

over time. The study indicates the ways in which parents treat boys and girls differently and

put pressure on children’s on the basis of their gender and discriminate between them. I find

this research useful because it helped me to know about things going on in society and how

children’s suffer due to pressure on them by their own parents and what can be done to make

this situation better and decrease gender discrimination and pressure on children’s. This study

gave me opportunity to learn further about pressure on children’s on different basis.
