| Abstract | ||
| Background: Adolescence is a time of transition involving multi-dimensional changes: biological, psychological (including cognitive) and social. Biologically, adolescents are experiencing pubertal changes, changes in brain structure and sexual interest, as a start. Psychologically, adolescents’ cognitive capacities are maturing. They are experiencing social changes through school and other transitions and roles they are assumed to play in family, community and school. During adolescence, many unhealthy behaviors often begin and pose significant public health challenges. Substance used disorder has a significant impact on individuals, families and communities, as its effects are cumulative, contributing to increased health and social problems and severely affecting mental health. The nature of the relationship between mental disorders and substance used disorder is complex and multifaceted. Evidence suggests that negative emotional states and stress related to the urge to take drugs create an emotional disturbance for individuals who use drugs. A change in policy levels will be necessary to make the most of vital neurological explorations so that these results can be used to improve the lives of individuals with comorbidity. Objective: This review article aims to detect the parenting attitudes in adolescents with substance use disorders and correlate between the severity of substance abused and the parenting attitudes as risk factors. Conclusions: There is a direct relationship between the severity of addiction and parenting attitudes. The study also showed that the most commonly used drugs by adolescents are synthetic cannabis.cocaine/crack consumption. | ||
