Objective: In this research, we investigate the effects of parent‐youth developmental relationships on 15 psychological and social‐emotional outcomes for 633 matched pairs of adolescents and parents (50% low‐income), including 176 who met the criteria for being high‐stress families. Background: Family stress and childhood adversity have a significant negative impact on youth development, but positive family relationships can ameliorate those effects. Previous research has primarily focused on the affective and discipline domains, with a reliance on retrospective recall of childhood adversity and family stress. Method: This paper engaged adolescents and parents in paper‐and‐pen and online surveys. Analyses are completed using logistic regression. Results: Youth from high‐stress families who had strong developmental relationships with parents were 7 to 33 times more likely to report positive developmental outcomes in comparison to youth from high‐stress families with weaker developmental relationships with parents. By including a wide range of 15 psychological and social–emotional positive youth development outcomes, our current study illuminates a breadth of positive development that is promoted when families are able to construct strong developmental relationships, despite experiencing significant life stresses. Conclusion: Parent–child developmental relationships can ameliorate potential negative effects of childhood adversity and family stress on positive youth development. Implications: Program and resource supports for strengthening parent–child developmental relationships are a necessary and critical part of the needed comprehensive response to adverse childhood experiences and family stress.
