Owing to its clinical significance, a large body of research has been conducted on family relationships. However, most studies have focused on mother-child relationships, and few have explored father-child relationships. As the nature of family is changing in today’s society, it is important to investigate the different aspects of clinical support and intervention. In this study, we examined the relationship between parents' self-esteem and children's depression, autonomy, and career consciousness to determine the mediating effect of parenting behaviors. To this end, a sample of 136 middle school students and their parents was used to build empirical evidence on parent-child relationships, which included fathers. The results of structural equation modeling suggest that parents' "respect for intension" and "positive responsiveness" mediated the relationship between parents' self-esteem and children's depression, autonomy, and career consciousness. In other words, when parents’ behavior was respectful of children's intentions and autonomy, and responded positively and empathetically to children's actions and requests, children's depression would be reduced and their autonomy and career consciousness would increase. These results are meaningful in that they may support the effectiveness of clinical interventions such as training parents to improve their behavioral patterns.
