Abstract
Structural equation modeling was used to test the mediational roles of mothers' supportive parenting and inconsistent discipline in the parent problem drinking-child mental health relationship. Data were collected from 303 families with young adolescent children. Parent problem drinking was related to higher levels of negative life events which in turn were related to less supportive parenting and more inconsistent discipline. Supportive parenting was related to better child mental health. Inconsistent discipline was related to higher levels of depression only for children of the non-hispanic mothers.

Results indicated that parental alcoholism in addition to creating an adverse family environment had an effect on the relative risk for maladjustment in the offspring (as measured by scores on the Child Behavior Checklist), suggesting that the effects of parental alcoholism on children ages 4 to 16 may not be different from the consequences of parental mental illness per se.
