This study aims to examine the dynamics of resilience among children with disabilities and to formulate a culturally responsive parenting model based on the Javanese value of Nrimo ing Pandum. The study employed a qualitative approach using a narrative literature review method by analyzing relevant books, scientific articles, journals, and conference proceedings. The findings indicate that children with disabilities face various psychological and social barriers that may undermine their self confidence, resilience, and self concept. Parenting and family support play important roles in strengthening resilience, self concept, and children’s capacity to develop their potential. The value of Nrimo ing Pandum, which emphasizes acceptance, gratitude, patience, and adaptive responses to life circumstances, provides a culturally relevant foundation for developing a parenting approach that integrates acceptance with empowerment. Based on these findings, this study proposes the Nrimo ing Pandum based Democratic Empowering Parenting model as a culturally responsive parenting approach that may support resilience, independence, and positive developmental outcomes among children with disabilities. This proposition is theoretically grounded in the alignment between the values of Nrimo ing Pandum and democratic and empowering parenting principles that foster autonomy, participation, and adaptive development. Further empirical research is needed to develop, validate, and examine the effectiveness of the proposed model.
