At this stage, children are in a phase of development that is very sensitive to stimuli from their environment, especially the family environment. Parents, as teachers at home, have a strategic role in shaping children's attitudes, behaviors, and basic values, including independence and self-confidence. The parenting patterns applied by parents influence the process of internalizing the values instilled in children. This study aims to examine the dynamics of parenting patterns in internalizing the values of independence and self-confidence in children. This study uses a qualitative approach and a case study research design. The research subjects include five parents, one classroom teacher, and fifteen children. Data collection techniques include in-depth interviews, participatory observation, and documentation. Data analysis techniques use the interactive model of Miles and Huberman, which includes three stages: data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion drawing. Data validity testing uses source and method triangulation techniques. The results of the study show that: First, democratic parenting is the most dominant form practiced by parents in class A1, which is characterized by a balance between giving freedom and applying positive discipline. Second, democratic parenting has a positive effect on the development of children's independence and self-confidence, as seen in their ability to make simple decisions, dare to try new things, and show self-confidence. Third, factors that influence the dynamics of independence and self-confidence, such as parents' education level, type of work, and intensity of interaction with children, affect the parenting style applied. In addition, collaboration between parents and teachers in school activities strengthens the process of internalizing children's character values.649.1 Pola Asuh/Parenting2026-05-11UIN SUNAN KALIJAGA YOGYAKARTA;FAKULTAS ILMU TARBIYAH DAN KEGURUANThesis
