The study encompassed parents living in the city. Sample size: considering the population, 157 subjects were selected using stratified random sampling method. Data were collected by a standardized questionnaire. A conclusion was driven out of the findings of the first hypothesis, that is, there was a difference in marital satisfaction between the families of addicts and non-addicts. The mean of responses indicated that marital satisfaction among addicts was lower than that of non-addicts. According to the findings of the second question, parenting style of addicts and non-addicts was different for permissive and authoritative styles, and there was no difference for the authoritative style among them. The mean of responses indicated that addicts employed authoritarian and permissive styles more than non-addicts did.
