Agent-based modeling is a new technique used to understand social processes facing in the social sciences. The agent-based model is a model in which agents are used to represent the actors of the social world. When simulations of models for social sciences are performed, information about social processes is obtained and future outcomes of those processes are anticipated by using agents. Agent based modeling has also become increasingly popular in the education domain. It is possible to represent students' interactions with each other and their teachers where the teacher and students are programmed as agents in a simulation environment. In the present study, the school environment is represented in a simulation environment and students having undesired behaviors and their interactions with classmates are observed in this environment in order to investigate the relationship between the attitudes of parents and the undesired behaviors of primary school students. If there are students having undesired behaviors in the class environment, it is needed to examine the cause of undesired behaviors. Solving problems in the classroom mostly depends on the families.
