Inconsistent parenting and poor monitoring can increase the likelihood of substance abuse as children may have more opportunities to engage in risky behaviors without consequences. Parental expectations and knowledge about the risks can act as protective factors against substance abuse. Parental overinvolvement may also have some negative impacts on children, but it is not directly linked to an increased risk of substance abuse.
