Method and Materials: A total number of 738 mothers were enrolled in a retrospective comparative causal relationship study. They were mothers of 7 to 12 year old boy students (386 normal students and 352 exceptional ones) who had been selected through randomized multi-stage cluster sampling in Qom city primary schools. Data were collected using Abedin`s Parenting Stress Index (short form) and analysed by multivariate analysis of variance (MANOVA). Findings: Mean total score of Parenting stress in ECMs was significantly higher than that of NCMs. Considering the subscales, ECMs had significantly higher scores on subscales of parental distress, parent-child dysfunctional interaction and difficult child characteristics when compared with NCMs. Conclusions: ECMs experience higher levels of parenting stress than NCMs do.
