The purpose of this study is to investigate how mothers and their children are related to mother`s education involvement among the 3rd, 5th, and 9th grade students. The participants of this study consist of 327 students in 3rd grade, 302 students in 5th grade, and 250 students in 9th grade and their 879 mothers in the Daejeon area. To analyze the mother`s education involvement type and the mother`s education involvement type perceived by their children, we used the statistic program called SPSS 12.0. On the basis of the findings, we can conclude that most mothers and the students are related in three categories of education involvement types: self control-regulation type, regulation-self control type, and self control type. In addition, most mothers are interested in the betterment of their children`s academic learning achievement. In future research, if it can be included more students and their mothers in many different regions throughout South Korea, it would be more effective on analysis of mother`s education involvement type.
