The aim of this research is to examine whether the Internet family style changes according to age and gender. The study was based on quantitative cross-sectional survey design. The participants of the study were randomly sampled from among secondary and high school students. A total of 1839 children participated in this study. As a result of research, it was seen that parental control and parental warmth were high in both females and males in the 10–11 age group. This shows that families maintained high levels of control and warmth with regard to the Internet at younger ages and that this situation continued to diminish in both males and females in later ages. Considering gender, in males, parental control and parental warmth with regard to the Internet was seen to decline substantially at the age of 12. In females, parental control and warmth for the use of Internet decline substantially at the age of 14. Moreover, when compared to males, this decline occurs two years far ahead.
