Abstract

This study aims to describe the role of the family environment with democratic parenting in stimulating children's receptive language skills and to identify the obstacles faced by parents. This research employed a qualitative approach with a phenomenological method. The participants consisted of five parents who have children aged 4-5 years at RA Asrorul Huda, Bekasi. Data were collected through in-depth interviews, participatory observation, and documentation. Data validity was ensured through source triangulation and technique triangulation. Data analysis used the Miles and Huberman model, including data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing. The findings revealed that parents applied democratic parenting through two-way communication, providing children with opportunities to express opinions, giving consistent guidance, and assisting them in daily activities. Receptive language stimulation was carried out through storytelling, daily conversations, giving clear age-appropriate instructions, and creating a language-rich environment. Parents faced challenges including limited time, environmental influences, and gadget use. This research concludes that the family environment with democratic parenting plays an important role in stimulating young children's receptive language skills.
