Purpose: This study aims to analyze the relationship and the influence of parental parenting on students' PIU levels.

Method: Correlational research with an explanatory design was chosen to answer the formulation of the research problem. A total of 121 junior high schools (SMP) students in Malang City were respondents to the study using random sampling. The research data was collected using two instruments, namely generalized problematic Internet Use Scale 2 (GPIUS2) and the Parenting Questionnaire in Alabama. The collected data were analyzed using multiple regression.

Result: The results showed that inconsistent discipline, poor monitoring/supervision, and corporal punishment are variables that predict an increase in student PIU. Thus, it can be concluded that parental parenting is related and has an effect on the high and low levels of PIU.

Implication: Therefore, parents need to adjust parenting by helping students in improving self-control during a pandemic that uses more internet access.

Originality: This research is a study that focuses on analyzing problems that arise in the pandemic era related to problematic internet use (PIU) and parental parenting models.
