Research has shown that mindful parenting improves parent well-being, parent satisfaction, and improves overall family function. This quantitative study examined whether the practice of mindfulness is related to single mothers' level of stress and the quality of parent-teen relationships. A survey was offered to single mothers raising one or more teenagers. A total of 74 single mothers participated in the study. Data were collected using the Mindfulness in Parenting Questionnaire (MIPQ), Parental Stress Scale (PSS), and Child-Parent Relationship Scale Short Form (CPRS-SF) questionnaire to measure mindfulness skill, parenting stress, and the parent-child relationship. Linear regression analysis was carried out for variables (parenting stress and teen-parent relationship). Mindful parenting scores ranged between 32 and 112, with a mean of 81.68 (SD = 21.296). Parenting stress scores ranged between 17 to 76 with a mean of 43.320 (SD = 13.749). Teen-parent relationships ranged between 28 to 72 with a mean of 50.18 (SD = 13.079). The study results indicated that mindful parenting was associated with high levels of parent-teen relationships and lower levels of parenting stress. The primary conclusion of this study was that mindfulness in parenting might help improve parent-teen bonds. Future research should duplicate the study with a larger sample size because it would allow generalization in the single-parent population and add to the scientific knowledge base of mindfulness-based interventions. Also, future studies should examine the specific linkage between parenting stress and mindful parenting in phenomenological or case studies to help interpret the meaning of experience (parenting stress).
