The goal of the study is to pinpoint the bad parenting practices that may have an impact on the social and physical development of their families. A pre-tested questionnaire was used to collect data for this descriptive-cross-sectional study, including 192 respondents and examined how parents' behaviors and practices affect the health of their families. Data were interpreted using the statistical package for social sciences, version 26. The results clarified the parents multifaceted impact on the health of their family. Regarding cognitive functioning, 85% of participants indicated that having supportive parents is essential for the growth of social and cognitive well-being in families. About 90% of participants agreed, in terms of conduct, that a parent's behavior can influence their family's behavior. On the social side, 50% of the participants agreed that there is a strong relationship between the absence of a parent and some effects on the social health of their families. The study made clear there is a strong correlation between parents' lack of literacy and their capacity to support their families, demonstrating that most participants believed that the presence of supportive parents is essential for the development of a family's mental and social health.
