Abstract: Across the cultures, parenting or child-rearing practices are considered as the concrete behaviors towards the developmental process of rearing or socialization of the children. The study splits the conception of parenting practices among two domains as parental acceptance and parental rejection, depending on the behavioural outcomes under investigation. The cross sectional research was conducted on young males attending colleges in Lahore, Pakistan to understand that how parental rejection dimensions of parenting manifest the violent behavioral outcome among male college students. The research within the Pakistani indigenous culture on parenting practices and its inter-relationship between youth violent behavioural outcomes provide stems from the theoretical anchorage in the socio-psychological works. The sample of 816 male students from public colleges of Lahore was included to collect the responses through self-administered questionnaire as a tool of the study. The results indicated that measures of perceived parental rejection accounts variations in the violent behavioural outcomes of the young male students for 26.2% (R2 = 0.262). The study suggests that positive parenting interventions may cause to reduce the risk factors (i.e. violent behavioral practices) among youth.
