The study is based on the analysis of the processes of bilingual and multilingual upbringing of children from families living in Baku and the suburbs of Baku, whose mother tongue is Azerbaijani. The study examined the influence of the current environment on the mental and social development of children. The information obtained after the survey, interview, and observation is the basis of the study. The study aimed to shed light on the positive and negative effects of bilingual and multilingual parenting processes on children and laid the groundwork for larger-scale research in the future.
