This study aims to determine the relationship between authoritarian parenting and the self-esteem of Generation Alpha students at SMP Negeri 3 Medan in the 2026/2027 academic year. The study employed a quantitative approach with a correlational design. The population consisted of all 340 eighth-grade students, and the sample comprised 184 students determined using the Slovin formula with a 5% margin of error and proportionate stratified random sampling. Data were collected using four-point Likert-scale questionnaires: an authoritarian parenting questionnaire based on Baumrind's (1967) theory, consisting of 35 valid items (α = 0,947), and a self-esteem questionnaire based on the theories of Rosenberg (1965) and Coopersmith (1967), consisting of 36 valid items (α = 0,952). The data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, normality and linearity tests, and Pearson Product Moment correlation with IBM SPSS Statistics 25. The results showed that authoritarian parenting was mostly in the moderate category (126 students; 68.5%), as was students' self-esteem (137 students; 74.5%). The correlation test yielded a coefficient of 0,099 with a significance value of 0,179 (p > 0,05); therefore, H₀ was accepted and H₁ was rejected. Thus, there is no significant relationship between authoritarian parenting and the self-esteem of Generation Alpha students at SMP Negeri 3 Medan. The coefficient of determination of 0,98% indicates that students' self-esteem is more likely related to factors other than authoritarian parenting.
