I also know ppl that had good parents, that grew up to be idiots that made a ton of bad decisions. It all comes from the person. YES, good parenting is important but it only goes so far.. I dont agree with blaming the parents for the dumb things their teens do.
I think I have amazing parents and I think they did a very good job at raising me and my brother. I made a couple dumb choices in my early 20s.. nothing to crazy but if I was as famous as Bieber, it would have been on the news lol. I would never in a million years blame my parents for my choices.

Of course there are exceptions to every type of statement. But if you poll social workers, psychologists, etc, they would all say having a strong parental environment would produce greater odds the kid is going to grow up "normal". Kids always want to test boundaries and if parents are not around to set those boundaries, the kid is going to think they can get away with anything.
