description This study examines the influence of parents on children regarding intergroup relations. For this purpose, the study focuses on the similarities children have with their parents in terms of social relations between migrant and Turkish children in Türkiye. The theoretical frameworks guiding the study involve Allport’s prejudice model and Bandura’s social learning theory, as well as other field studies. Due to the relations between majority and minority groups often being based on an asymmetrical power relationship, this study has adopted a critical perspective. For this reason, the study uses the critical ethnography approach, a qualitative research design. The study discusses its findings within the scope of the themes of young children’s group awareness and preferences, learning prejudice, sensitivity to implicit (non-verbal) behaviors, and parent-child similarities in intergroup friendships. As a result, the research shows that parents have a deep influence on children regarding intergroup relationships, with similarities existing between a parent and child. On this basis, the study concludes the need to consider parental effects and plan possible interventions accordingly in order to positively support the course of relations between the two groups.
