This study explored the profiles of elementary-school-aged children’s Internet use in relation to their emotional and behavioral problems. Participating in this cross-sectional study were 877 child–parent dyads from Latvia, Lithuania, and Taiwan. Children (8–10 years old) provided information on three variables: the amount of time they spent online, frequency of online activities, and knowledge of how to do things online. Latent profile analysis including these three variables provided a four-class solution for child Internet use. A comparison between Latvia, Lithuania, and Taiwan on the percentage of the sample distribution in each class showed that there was no difference between sites for the high class (high ratings on all three variables). The largest differences were for the low and average classes (low and average ratings on all three variables, namely, time online, frequency, and knowledge): the Lithuanian and Taiwanese samples were similar in that a higher percentage of each sample was in the low class, whereas the Latvian sample had children equally distributed between the low class and the average class. Analysis of the data from the entire sample for differences in parent-reported child behavioral difficulties suggested that children in the high class had an elevated level of behavioral problems and compulsive Internet use.

When teenagers are going through this stage they often have emotional problems, which, if they are taken care of on time and with the appropriate support of parents, can easily be overcome and not trigger problems in other areas of life such as academic performance. The object of study is to know the relationship between emotional and behavioral problems and the support they receive from their parents with learning. The final test was applied to 80 subjects of second grade of secondary school. An instrument was used with four nominal variables and 60 simple variables integrated in 3 sections of 20 variables per axis, which were: emotional problems, family support and learning. The data were processed in the statistical programs, and the statistical levels of frequencies and percentages, factorial integrational, relational level were obtained. Main results: when there is support, help and cooperation from parents to their children, they have a better academic performance and accept themselves, so they do not present emotional problems and when parents are involved in the integral development of their children , these do not present emotional problems and dedication to their studies is facilitated. The main conclusions were that the student who accepts himself as a person, if he receives the necessary support from his parents, attains the necessary knowledge and has a good academic performance.
