The presence of children with special needs, as intellectual disability, will affect various aspects of life in the family. For parents of the children with intellectual disability, responsibilities as parents and negative view of the community are a challenge. This condition certainly would affect subjective well-being of the parents and the children. This research is focused on scrutinizing subjective well-being on the parents of children with intellectual disability associated with parents' ability regarding self regulation which is reflected in self-compassion and their ability to use coping strategies. The research was conducted on 136 parents of children with intellectual disability in Jakarta and South Tangerang with the accidental sampling method. The validity of instrument used technique confirmatory factor analysis (CFA). The data analysis used model path analysis using software M-Plus 7.4. The research results found that self compassion as variable moderator between PFC and EFC to SWB were fit of the data. PFC was significant effect to SWB both direct effect (r=0.272; p=0.023<0,05) and indirect effect (r=0.168; p=0.005<0.05). On the other hand, EFC was significant to SWB only on direct effect (r= -0.250; p=0.033<0.05) but it was not significant on indirect effect (r=-0.098, p=0,078>0,05). This outcome indicates that parents need to have self-compassion and coping strategies focusing on the problem for it to be subjective well-being they maintained well.
