This study examines the relationship between adolescents’ home environments and their punctuality in Chhattisgarh, India. The study examines how different family structures and genders affect time management practices and domestic experiences among 100 secondary school students. The results indicate significant differences in the punctuality patterns of adolescents from nuclear and joint family systems, as well as between boys and girls. Additionally, the study finds differences in how these demographic groups perceive their homes. While the analysis indicates that gender and family structure have a significant impact on both punctuality and home environment, these two factors appear to function independently of one another. The findings demonstrate the intricate relationship that exists between adolescent family dynamics and personal development. These observations can inform the development of instructional strategies and parenting techniques designed to assist young students in developing time management and responsibility skills. The study underscores the importance of considering environmental and personal factors when supporting adolescent development.
