Risk and Protective Roles of Parenting in Predicting Adolescent Aggression, Delinquency, Weapon Use, and Offending
In four large samples, diverse in terms of youths’ ethnicity and risk level, we examine the role of parent attitudes and parenting strategies as risk and protective factors for adolescent antisocial behavior, weapon use, and offending. Findings support the need for family-based interventions in early and later developmental periods.
