Abstract

The main objective of this study was to compare the level of moral development and academic achievement of the children of graduate and undergraduate mothers. There were 1351 7th grade students studying in thirty eight (38) Boys’ elementary schools situated in Tehsil Dera Ghazi khan. 306 students were selected as a sample of this study through Stratified random sampling technique. A moral development scale was used in order to check the level of moral development in the children of graduate and undergraduate mothers. Similarly, the academic achievement of the children was computed on the basis of their previous results. The results showed that the level of moral- development of the children of graduate mothers was poor but with better academic achievement. On the other way the undergraduate mothers’ children were showing better moral development level but with low academic achievement. The study recommended both types of mothers to keep balance while advocating their children about these personas.
