This study qualitatively described the lived experiences of the research participants' parental involvement in their child's education. The study used a qualitative approach utilizing a phenomenological approach. Additionally, the participants of this study were the selected parents of Adelina Tuardon Recto Elementary School in Glan 4 District, whose learners were currently enrolled during SY 2023-2024. Based on the results of the study, seven (7) emergent themes were formulated under the participants’ understanding of their parental roles, and these were parental provision, instill values, support children, education as an invaluable legacy, parental task supervision, parental civic duty, and support can be financial. On the other hand, five (5) emergent themes were formed on the difficulties they have encountered, resulting in non-involvement. These were difficult to assist complex tasks, work fatigue, financial constraint, health issues, and work-related reasons. On the impact of parental involvement, four (4) emergent themes were formulated: elevating attendance rate, increasing motivation and participation, academic inclination, and leading children towards success.
