Abstract

The Covid-19 pandemic situation has changed many aspects of people’s daily lives. Conditions that are not ideal make the practice of parenting more challenging, especially for parents with elementary-aged children. Hence, parents have a greater risk of experiencing parental burnout. One of the inhibiting factors for parental burnout is self-compassion. This study was conducted to determine the relationship between self-compassion and parental burnout. Correlational quantitative research was conducted by involving 108 respondents of mothers with elementary school-aged children in Yogyakarta. The data were analyzed using the Spearman Rho analysis technique. It shows a negative relationship between self-compassion and parental burnout (p = 0.000). In addition, through additional testing, it was found that parental burnout was also related to the number of children (p = 0.040). Unlike previous studies, it doesn’t show any correlation between parental burnout and the mother’s employment status or family income.
