The aim of this paper is to analyse the relevance of parents’
active and restrictive mediation of children’s online
behaviour. The data collected in 2018 in the EU Kids
Online survey in Serbia on a nationally representative
sample of children aged 9 to 17 years (N = 1,150) were
used. The SEM model is used to test the possible
relationships between parental strategies and excessive
internet use (EIU) by examining the paths from
active/restrictive practices to EIU (1) through limiting the
time spent online and (2) through increasing digital skills.
The analysis has shown that both active and restrictive
parenting lowers EIU by reducing the time spent online.
Restrictive mediation is more strongly related to lowering
the time spent online, but, unlike active parenting, it
decreases children’s digital skills as well
