Social support is a range of interpersonal relationships that have an impact on the individual's functioning and generally includes support satisfaction.

The present study was conducted in Hisar city of Haryana state andUdaipur city of Rajasthan state. From Hisar and Udaipur cities, two schools, one affiliated to CBSE and one affiliated to state education board, were selected at random. From each school 60 students including 30 boys and 30 girls in the age group of 13-16 years were selected randomly. So, the total sample constituted of 240 students, 120 from Hisar city and 120 from Udaipur city equally representing male and female respondents. Parental encouragement was assessed by using Parental Encouragement Scale by Sharma (1997). Educational aspiration was assessed by Educational Aspiration scale by Sharma and Gupta (2015). The results elucidated that there were significant positive correlation between parental encouragement and educational aspirations of children. Children with low educational aspirations received low level of parental encouragement; while children with high educational aspirations received high level of parental encouragement. The regression results confirmed that parental encouragement was strong predictor of educational aspiration of high school children.Keywords
