The advancement of digital technology has driven early adults to be more active in seeking information, including about parenting. Social media emerges as a primary source due to its fast, varied, and need-based accessibility. Along with increasing awareness of the importance of preparation before becoming a parent, the demand for parenting information also rises. The individual's emotional and psychological readiness closely influences this information search, in addition to the desire to learn. One of the most significant factors is the unresolved inner child condition, which triggers the urge to seek healthy parenting patterns and avoid repeating past parenting styles. This study aims to explore how early adults interact with and interpret parenting information from social media. Using a qualitative method with a phenomenological approach, data were collected through semi-structured interviews involving 12 informants aged 21–40 years with diverse marital backgrounds. The findings reveal six main themes: (1) initial dynamics in consuming parenting information; (2) social media as a source and engagement space; (3) strategies for evaluating information quality and validity; (4) psychological impacts of information; (5) transformation in parenting perspectives and practices; and (6) influence on relational orientation and family planning. The findings of this research indicate that the interaction of early adults with parenting information not only expands cognitive knowledge but also influences their perspectives and attitudes towards parenting, encourages self-reflection processes, and shapes their views on building relationships and planning family life.
