This study investigates how Internet-based technologies shape parental communication patterns and influence the quality of parent-child relationships in Türkiye. Employing a qualitative research design, the study draws on semi-structured interviews with 21 parents (13 mothers and 8 fathers) of children aged 2–12 years. Thematic analysis revealed three key themes: (a) Navigating the risks associated with Internet-based technologies, (b) Parental strategies for regulating children's technology use, and (c) Fostering resilience and recovery through digital parenting practices. Findings suggest that conversation- and conformity-oriented communication patterns play a critical role in shaping children's digital resilience and well-being. By highlighting both the challenges and opportunities presented by Internet-based technologies, this study provides valuable insights for parents, educators, and policymakers aiming to foster healthier family interactions in an increasingly digital world. Highlights: This study explores how Internet-based technologies influence parent-child interactions in the cultural context of Türkiye. It identifies key themes, including digital risks, parental regulation strategies, and fostering resilience through parenting. Findings highlight the role of conversation- and conformity-oriented communication in shaping children's digital well-being. It emphasizes the need for parental awareness and strategies to balance technology use and healthy family communication. The study provides insights for policymakers, educators, and parents to enhance digital parenting practices and child well-being. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: Article src: R language: English refInfo: copyright: @attributes: flag: N holdings: @attributes: islocal: N |
