Abstract Gratitude, the appreciation of positive life experiences, is essential for young adults' well-being. The state of young adulthood associated with emerging adulthood and the shift in adult development makes it possible to cultivate gratitude. Parenting practices refer to the temper and discipline of families that have been shown to affect young adults. This research examines parenting styles and their link to gratitude in young adults. The sample comprised 134 participants aged 18-21 years and their parenting style as well as gratitude was established using the Adolescent Parenting Attitude Four Factor Questionnaire and the gratitude questionnaire respectively. There were found statistically significant relationships between parenting styles and gratitude. Authoritative parenting demonstrated a small positive relationship, while the other three parenting styles demonstrated negative relationships. The outcomes of this study understand the significance of parenting strategies concerning young adults’ emotional-social development and augment the notion that authoritative parenting best predicts gratitude.
