Abstract

Adolescents’ self-disclosure to their parents is used as a place to build closeness between adolescents and parents. To carry out this self-disclosure requires trust and closeness between adolescents and parents. Teenagers will easily express themselves to their parents if they have emotional closeness, a trustworthy relationship, and parents with an authoritative, responsive, and accepting pattern. This research aims to describe the description of adolescents’ self-disclosure regarding family conflicts on social media and to find out what factors influence adolescents’ self-disclosure regarding family conflicts on social media. The research method used is a qualitative method with a phenomenological approach; the data analysis technique is interactive using the Miles and Huberman model. This research shows that the family conflicts experienced by respondents include conflicts of intimacy, identity, and rejection. Internal factors that influence the self-disclosure of adolescents with family conflicts are the need for affiliation, lack of family social support, friendship intimacy, and trust. Meanwhile, the external factor is the social environment. The respondents were able to express themselves about the family conflicts they experienced through their two social media accounts.
