Introduction The media, parents, and friends have a big influence on teenagers’ lives. Teenage romance has been associated with negative outcomes such as dropping out among teenagers, teenage pregnancy, poor grades, and sexually transmitted infections (STIs). At puberty, teenagers begin to show interest in dating. However, their casual attitude towards relationships and romance makes them unable to cope with challenges related to romantic relationships. These challenges affect their academic performance and self-esteem.

In addition, substance abuse among teenagers can be prevented through intimate parent-child relationships. Parental involvement has been shown to improve the teenagers’ academic performance. It entails monitoring or supervising the child’s academic and social development or directly participating in a child’s academic affairs.
