摘要：The phenomenon of child neglect has been escalating rapidly with the transformation in family structure, evolution of single parental families, increasing number of working women and low socio-economic status of the parents. Educational neglect by the parents brings serious modifications in personality development and behavioral patterns of their children. Due to educational neglect by parents, the children become psychologically and emotionally demoralized and they are at the greater risk of cognitive impairment and behavioral fluctuations that result in their personality distortions. Cross sectional survey research design was used by the researcher to accumulate the data from 201 respondents through multistage sampling technique. The researcher applied t-test on the quantitative data to evaluate the difference between two means (responses of the male and female students). The researcher instituted that there were numerous factors which aggravate the parental neglection towards their children education. Such factors included parental remarriage, single parental families and financial stress on parents. After revering the analysis the researcher concluded that low grade attainment, frequent absenteeism from school, squat self esteem and personality distortion are the major outcomes of child neglect. In addition to this other behavior modifications such as social isolation, drug usage, antisocial behavior and recurrent depression are also pervasive behavioral modifications in neglected children. Enhancing parental involvement, increasing parental awareness as well as launching various family network and family assistance projects are the foremost remedies that can facilitate to prevail over the issue.
