Who else does my teenager trust to hear a difficult concern?

The analysis considers school support and self-esteem alongside harsh parenting and serious distress, rather than reducing risk to a single relationship.

Who was studied?

Four thousand one hundred and eighty-nine Chinese adolescents completing school and family measures.

Age / stage: Adolescence

Read with three questions

  1. What can a single survey establish about the order of harsh discipline and distress?
  2. Whose perspective is represented by the ratings, and whose perspective is missing?
  3. Who else does my teenager trust to hear a difficult concern?
