Many children participate in extracurricular activities such as music lessons and sports club activities, which have instructors who teach and support them. Since these instructors are involved with children, local parents and children may be familiar to them. In this study, first, we clarified the actual status of child-rearing support behaviors of 300 community instructors for under15. Second, a logistic regression analysis was conducted to examine the relationship between the parenting support behaviors of the instructors and "social interest." The results showed that instructors engaged in more community child-rearing support activities than the general community residents. The factors that increased local child-rearing support were a sense of belonging and trust in the social interest had some effect. This study suggests the way to foster a sense of trust and belongingness should be examined.
