The study investigated the relationship between perceptions of parental punitive discipline and involvement in non-illegal and minor-illegal delinquent behaviours among selected secondary school students in Nairobi County, Kenya. A correlational survey design was employed and the participants comprised 219 females and 191 male students selected by use of stratified and simple random sampling methods. Data was collected using a questionnaire. The study reported that there is a statistically significant positive relationship between parental corporal punishment and adolescents’ non-illegal delinquent behaviours. However, parental corporal punishment did not significantly relate to adolescents’ involvement in minor- illegal delinquent behaviours. The study recommended that parents should avoid use of punitive disciplining strategies which influenced adolescents’ non-illegal delinquent behaviours. DOI: 10.5901/jesr.2015.v5n1p329
