Every parent must have the desire to have a child. The child that parents expect is a perfect child without the slightest flaws. Parents also do not want their child to be born with abnormalities or defects in their bodies. The birth of a child who has special needs also does not know whether he is from a wealthy family, a family with a higher education, a poor family, or even a family that is devout in religion or not. So that parents are unable to refuse the birth of a child with special needs. The purpose of this study was to find out how much influence self regulation has on subjective well-being in parents who have children with special needs.
