Abstrakt: This article is based on the field data collected for a PhD work on the socio-economic impacts of overseas labour export. These impacts also included the impacts of the overseas labour induced absence of fathers from families resulting in delinquency of male children. Associated with affluence and abrupt heavy remittance to the family, the male children in particular astray the norms. Data was collected from children of the overseas workers, mostly working in Malaysia. Sociologist and psychologists are of the opinion that there is a definite relationship between absence of the patriarch from the family for a long time and defective socialization and disciplining of the adolescent's male children in particular.
