The present study focuses on aggressive behavior of school going children of working and nonworking mothers in relation to their self-esteem (SE), self-home perception (SHP), and student-teacher relationship (STR). This study has been conducted on 100 aggressive students from seven schools in the Ludhiana district (Punjab), India, as identified by the teachers. Self-constructed tools and Rosenberg's test for SE was used for data collection. Significant differences are observed based on different investigated factors for aggressive children of working and non−working mothers. Both SHP and SE were found to be higher in aggressive children of working mothers as compared to those of non−working mothers. Self-home perception and student−teacher relationships have been found to be significantly correlated with each other for aggressive children of both working as well as non−working mothers.
