ABSTRACT
The purpose of the study was to investigate how home variables affect maladjusted behavior among adolescents in secondary schools. The objectives of the study were to investigate the influence of parental level of education on discipline, investigate the influence of parental economic status on discipline, and to investigate the parenting style used at home to correct unbecoming behavior and their effect on general discipline at school. The study was a descriptive research. The main method of acquiring data was through administration of questionnaires. The target population of this study was approximately 1420 students from the 18 secondary schools. This comprised the students from secondary schools in Isolo Local Government Area. The data was analyzed descriptively by use of SPSS and the findings presented in figures and tables. The study indicated that parental economic status and their level of education were variables that significantly affected the level of discipline in a student at school. Therefore, the study recommended that the government should educate parents through civil education and encourage them to further their studies. Another recommendation was that teachers should work hand in hand with both parents and students to improve discipline in schools. Lastly, similar studies should be done in other areas to enable comparison and contrasting of home variables influence on student discipline in the country.
