Sumario:In this article, the authors move beyond an interactional perspective on the relationship between delinquency and parenting by examining the mediating effects of legal sanctions. Structural equation modeling was employed to test hypothesized relationships. Three waves of data from a sample of 407 Midwestern adolescents and their parents were used.

The findings suggest that official labeling helps account for both continuity in antisocial activities and disruptions in parenting practices
