MPMartin PinquartTDTeolina Dzhuvanova

Key Points

  • To evaluate the relationship between substance-specific parenting practices and substance use in children and adolescents.
  • Conducted a meta-analysis of existing literature on parenting and substance use.
  • Examined various parental behaviors related to substance-specific practices.
  • Evaluated both parent-focused and offspring-focused intervention strategies.
  • Found a significant association between substance-specific parenting and reduced substance use in offspring.
  • Indicated that addressing multiple parental behaviors leads to better outcomes.
  • Suggested that combined interventions for parents and children are more effective.

Abstract

We conclude that substance-specific parenting is a relevant target for prevention and intervention. However, to optimize outcomes, more than one parental behavior should be addressed, and parent-focused interventions may be combined with offspring-focused interventions.
