Abstract: Objective: We examined the directionality among child routines, noncompliance, parental stress, and harshness using a cross‐lagged model. Background: Child routines foster development and are associated with lower noncompliance and parenting stress, correlating with less harsh discipline. Transactional parent–child interactions imply bidirectional associations warranting thorough analysis. Method: The study used data from Years 3 and 5 of the Future of Families and Child Wellbeing Study (N = 2,353; 48% female). Child routines, noncompliance, parenting stress, and harsh parenting were reported by mothers. Results: Child routines at 3 years old predicted a decrease in noncompliance at 5 years old (β = −.04, p <.001), but not the reverse (β = −.01, p =.54). Noncompliance at 3 years old predicted parenting stress at 5 years old (β =.05, p =.007), and parenting stress at 3 years old predicted harsh parenting at 5 years old (β =.07, p <.001). Parenting stress (β = −.06, p <.001) and harsh parenting (β = −.05, p <.05) at 3 years old predicted fewer routines at 5 years old, but routines did not predict stress or harsh parenting. Conclusion: Promoting child routines at a young age may be associated with improved compliance behaviors in children. Reduced compliance issues may lower parenting stress, which can decrease the use of harsh parenting practices. Implications: The findings suggest that interventions promoting child routines could foster positive behavior and reduce parenting stress, ultimately contributing to healthier parent–child relationships and better developmental outcomes for preschoolers.
