The purpose of the study was to examine the influence of parents on the academic behaviour of children in the state of Nagaland, India. The samples consisted of 35 male residences of three-rehabilitation centers of Dimapur district, Nagaland. The samples were drawn by using random sampling method. A self-constructed questionnaire was employed to collect the data. The data were analyzed and converted into percentage to obtain the results. The findings of the study suggested that there was an imbalance in the parenting method applied by the parents. Inconsistency in the home environment was also found to be another cause of children’s behavioral deviation. Further findings of the study revealed that parental substance abuse was not directly related to children’s substance abuse.
