Parental interpretational schemes and skills in the process of parenting are critical to the healthy development of children. The present study aims to determine whether the Early Maladaptive Schemas (EMS) and Social Educational Skills (P-SES) differ between father and mother. This is a cross-sectional study of comparative type, which was attended by 154 parents (46 fathers and 108 mothers) who were included for having at least one child aged between seven and 11 years. The parents answered a questionnaire on sociodemographic data, the Jeffrey Young Schema Inventory (YQS-S3) and the Social Educational Skills Inventory for parents of Del Prette and Del Prette. The mothers presented higher scores in the EMS of dependence / incompetence, entanglement, failure and self-sacrifice, and also were more skilled than the fathers in the total P-SES factor, in establishing limits and in communication with their children. Although mothers have shown themselves to be more skillful in educational practices, the identified schemes interfered with distorted interpretations of facts, which in motherhood may influence the ability of mothers to educate and stimulate their children. Results support researchers and clinicians with preventive measures, providing a further interpretation in educational practices that differentiate fathers and mothers.
