The study’s purpose was to analyze the mediating role of coping strategies between parenting daily hassles (PDH), and quality of life (QoL) in a sample of Kurdish parents of children with neurodevelopmental disorders (NDDs). A non-experimental research design with a quantitative type, a correlative research strategy, and a purposive sampling technique was used to recruit a sample of 206 parents. Three self-report questionnaires were used to collect data, PDH, Brief-Cope, and WHOQOL brief. Independent-Samples t-test, and Process macro procedure were used to analyze the data. Results showed that “problem-focused coping” (PFC), and “avoidant coping” (AC) partially mediated the relationship between PDH, and QoL, while Emotion-focused coping (EFC) didn`t mediate the relationship. As it gathered in the conclusion, two types of coping, PFC and AC strategies were partially mediated the relationship between PDH and parents’ QoL. PFC positively mediated the relationship, while AC negatively mediated the relationship. It means that the more the PFC will be used, the lesser hassles and the better QoL will be perceived, whereas the reverse is true for AC strategy.
