The aim of the study was to investigate the impact of parental personality, coping, and the child's quality of life on the well‐being of parents of children treated for cancer. The study included 99 parents (63 mothers and 36 fathers), 41 parents during child's intensive treatment, 23 parents whose child completed intensive treatment, and 25 parents of children who completed treatment at least five years ago. The results of multivariate study have confirmed the predictive role of parental personality (especially Neuroticism); emotion‐focused coping styles, and the child's quality of life (especially physical functioning) on parental well‐being. About 60% of the variance in parental well‐being can be attributed to the predictors. Assessing parental personality functioning and coping styles can help us identify those parents who are less emotionally stable, more prone to emotionally focused coping styles, and most likely to experience poorer well‐being. Improved assessment may contribute to the development of further psychological interventions
