Abstract |
This study aims to understand how digital media influences parenting styles in Malaysia. It examines Malaysian parents' perceptions of the risks associated with their children's use of digital media. Additionally, the study analyzes the digital parenting styles currently practiced by Malaysian parents, identifies the skills and knowledge needed for digital parenting, and suggests educational modules to support Malaysian parents in becoming digital enablers. Recognizing that parents are often reluctant to engage in conventional training, this study proposes making digital parenting education more flexible and accessible through inclusive online learning platforms. |
