AB - The lack of social skills of disabled students has been considered as the major obstacle to the inclusive education. It should be noted that, however, the lack of social skills of non-disabled students, mainly resulted from the overprotection of their parents, is also a great hindrance to successful inclusion. In this context, using attachment theory, this study tries to determine the negative effects of overprotective parenting on children’s exploratory behavior, and suggest an alternative parenting for the effective inclusive education. It also shows that with secure attachment the children could enjoy greater exploration, which enhanced their interpersonal competence and that parents’ overprotection could suppress the development of exploratory behavior. As a conclusion, it suggests the need for the parent education both in individual and community level to promote the exploration ability of non-disabled students as well as disabled students. In this way, inclusive education can be achieved more effectively.
