Many family factors can predispose adolescents to be at risk of falling into one of the three categories listed above that influence school dropout. Certainly, students who drop out of high school typically come from homes with a weaker educational support system, in which there are low expectations for their children's schooling, a lack of supervision, and a careless parenting style (Strom & Boster, 2007). .Having expectations encourages people to meet them. Adolescent students whose parents had low expectations of their academic performance were much more likely to drop out (Blondal and Adalbjarnardottir, 2009). Mutual and ingrained expectations in families for a good education can provide sufficiently supportive communication to prevent any predisposition to school dropout. Strom and Boster (2007) showed that “an increase in supportive communication between parents and students decreases students' academic stress and influences their academic success and college completion (p. 436). » Through interaction, a child can learn about his parents' attitude towards the importance of education and its implications. By realizing that education is imperative to their parents, the student's approach to school can generate positive reinforcement due to the supportive communication expected at home. Parental involvement in supervising their child's homework and in activities where the parent has a relationship with the teacher reduces the risk of dropping out of school (Blondal & Adalbjarnardottir, 2009). However, it is important to note that Blondal and Adalbjarnardottir (2009) also found indications that parental involvement "reduced the likelihood of school dropout within an authoritative family......in the middle of the article ...... Beyond the loss of earnings and the loss of income, the social costs of dropping out of school are even higher. As Rumbeger (1987) documented, "high school dropouts are more likely to need a wide range of social services, including welfare, medical assistance, and unemployment assistance...they have poorer health, have lower rates of intergenerational mobility and lower rates of political participation. (p.115).” These unfortunates increasingly rely on the government and others to provide for their needs and miss out on the beauty of self-dependence. There are also other psychological implications related to dropping out of school. First, unlike other groups, dropouts were more likely to have used all forms of drugs and to report current moderate or heavy drug use (Beauvais et al., 1996). Additionally, surprisingly, 68% of state prison inmates have not earned a high school diploma..
