Parental mistake is defined as parental behavior, which may have negative effect on child development. Emotional competence is a child’s ability to manage emotions so that they are relevant to a situation. The studyinvolved 80 parents and 80 children aged 6 to 10 years old. Parents completed a questionnaire on the mistakes committed by them. Children also assessed the severity of the parental mistakes. Teachers evaluated the children’s level of emotional competence. The analyzes were performed using three algorithms of artificial intelligence: a) k-mean cluster analysis, b) artificial neural networks, and c) algorithm Classification & Regression Tree (C&RT), which linked the levels of child’s emotional competence with the severity of parental mistakes. The results reveal that low severity of mistakes: aggression, rigor, constraining the activity of the child, indifference, parent’s self-accentuation, and the idealization of the child is associated with higher levels of emotional competence of children. There are some inconsistencies in the results, which relate to mistakes of pandering to the child, doing things for the child and mistake of inconsistency.
