Researches supported that parenting is one of the perspectives which make an individual self-critical. Parents as primary caregivers significantly influence children's lifestyles. Such as humble, well-being, distress, and self-criticism. We conducted a systematic review to evaluate the relationship between parenting and self-criticism.
