Abstract
This research aimed to explore the relationship of psychological characteristics and parenting style of illegitimate children. The results show that parents of the illegitimate children perceived that they are authoritative parental, illegitimate children perceived their parents with a neglectful parenting style. They are extroverts, with low conscientiousness, emotional stability and openness. They also have a severely low self-esteem, rarely satisfied in in terms of their life; lack in motivating oneself and managing their emotions. There is significant difference between the respondents and their parent's assessment on the authoritative parenting style. There is a direct significant correlation between the perceived neglectful parenting style of the respondents and personality (extroversion) of the respondents and a direct significant correlation between the perceived neglectful parenting style of the respondents and personality (emotional stability) of the respondents. Likewise, there is inverse significant correlation between perceived neglectful parenting style of the respondents and emotional intelligence (managing emotions) of the respondents.
