The purpose of the study was to examine the relationship between parental acceptance-rejection and interpersonal relationship problems of alcohol consuming young adults between the ages of 18-25 years.  An inferential statistics-based study was carried out and the data was drawn from an online survey of 150 young adults who consume alcohol. The tools that were used in the study were Adult PARQ-Khaleque and Rohner (2002), FIAT-Q SF (Glenn M. Callaghan,2014) and AUDIT(WHO) to screen the level of alcohol consumption. The results indicated that there is a significant relationship between Maternal warmth, Maternal Hostility/aggression, Maternal Indifference/neglect, Maternal undifferentiated rejection, Paternal warmth and Paternal Indifference on interpersonal relationships problems.
