Abstract:

It is necessary to study how parental relationships can have lasting effects on children. When relationships between adults and children struggle, there can be subsequent effects on the children subject to this behavior. One study concluded that interpersonal violence had a direct effect on bullying, another found that 97% of the bullies were also victims themselves indicating a clear correlation between the victim becoming the perpetrator. This statistical analysis will examine the relationship that parental neglect can have on adolescents to see if there are any similarities.
