In the intricate dance of adolescent development, the family takes center stage, impacting an individual’s path to maturity. I delved into parent-adolescent dynamics, scrutinizing psychological control as a variable. The study also examined the consequences of these relationships through the lenses of self-esteem and substance use. In this cross-sectional exploration, 80 adolescents from diverse backgrounds unveiled their perception.
