Fleming, Charles B.; Brewer, Devon D.; Gainey, Randy R.; Haggerty, Kevin P.; Catalano, Richard F.

Journal of Child and Adolescent Substance Abuse, v6 n4 p75-86 1997

Using longitudinal analysis, examines the interactive relationship among parent drug use, bonding to parents, and child substance use in families (N=150) headed by substance abusers. Results indicate that substance use prevention in children of substance abusers should focus both on reducing parent drug use and on promoting bonding to abstinent parents. (RJM)
