Managing emotions wisely makes adolescents more focused and productive. Good emotional care can reduce the tendency of adolescents to engage in risky behaviors, such as drug abuse, smoking, bullying or aggressive behavior. A few adolescents were also found to receive less love, attention, feeling alone, less appreciated and less trusted by their parents. Therefore, this study was conducted to identify the emotional development methods that have been practiced by parents towards their adolescents in families. The design of this study is a quantitative survey study through the distribution of questionnaires to 523 respondents among adolescents in Malaysia and Indonesia. The data was analyzed descriptively using SPSS. As a result, the study provides input on effective parenting methods so that adolescents become more mature, balanced individuals, and prepared to face life’s challenges. This study can also be utilized by stakeholders in efforts to promote parenting education and guidance based on the guidance of the Quran, Sunnah and the recommendations of Islamic scholars towards developing quality human capital in adolescents as well as prosperous families and societies.
