Adolescence is a transitional age when rapid physiological, emotional and psychological changes occur. All these developments need to be taken into consideration as it creates a strong foundation before entering adulthood. It can help individuals live a life with positive well-being resulting in self-actualization. This research is aimed to study the relationship between parenting styles, emotional intelligence and birth order. The population consisted of 178 parents and 313 adolescents. The results stated that parenting styles do have an impact on emotional intelligence. Moreover, birth order also affects the emotional capabilities of children even though they were raised by the same parents. The present study revealed that among all the adolescents who were raised authoritively, second borns possessed more emotional intelligence. Between single children, first borns and second borns who were raised by authoritarian parents, second borns again scored high E.I. scores. Lastly, among all the adolescents who were raised using permissive parenting style, firstborns had more emotional capabilities than the single children and second borns.
