Is There a Link Between Overprotective Parents and Substance Abuse?

Question by M.: Is there a link between overprotective parents and substance abuse?
Overprotective parents try and monitor all aspects of their children’s lives. But that’s not possible.

It would make sense that teenagers with overprotective parents would try to rebel when their parents aren’t around. A way of rebelling would be taking drugs and smoking and drinking.

Are there any statistics, reports, or studies anywhere that would suggest a link between overprotective parents and substance abuse? Thanks!

That’s a very harsh position. The problem I see is that a certain percentage, however low, are innocent. That means your policy amounts to murder. As we have it, the biggest law our government is breaking is false imprisonment.
