"Externalizing problems were much better predicted by familial and extrafamilial factors than by the individual characteristics of the adolescent."
"The quality of attachment to parents is strongly related to adolescent's well-being and depression. Because parents provide support for conventional behavior and sanctions against conduct problems, positive bonding to parents seems to function as a protection against antisocial behavior and delinquency. In addition to parental bonding, parental ability to supervise their child and parental monitoring of the child's daily activities increases the likelihood that the adolescent will be deterred from problem behaviors. Parental monitoring decreases unsupervised time and narrows the range of negative social influences."
Dekovic, 1999
