Globalization brings new stresses, new challenges and new opportunities. In spite of the benefits of globalization in distributing technology, globalization has negative aspects in the form of mass media. However, on another side, Indonesian parents also complain that they find it difficult to understand their children, especially when they discuss about technology and modern issues. The aims of the study are: (a) to investigate whether parents aware of globalization and its effect to their area in Indonesia (b) to analyze the condition of adolescent misbehaviour that occurred at favorite schools in Indonesia (c) to find how parents control and warmth over students in favorite school. Due to the increase in risks caused by globalization, parental control and parental warmth are still necessary in deterring risky behaviors through this ambiguous period. Burt C.
