dc.description.abstractObjectives. Child-to-parent violence (CPV) is gradually attracting interest all over the world. Therefore, it is becoming a social problem. It has severe effects on the parents and the children. This study observed the socio-demographic causes of CPV in Ilorin metropolis of Kwara State. The study examines the association between the offender’s religion and engagement in nancial CPV. Also, there is an interest in the association between offender’s age and involvement in psychological violence. Finally, there is an interest in the association between offender’s gender and engagement in physical CPV. Material and methods. In 2018, data were retrieved using a questionnaire with 258 copies found to be valid. The respondents were selected using multistage sampling, entailing cluster, simple random and purposive stages of sampling. In terms of gender, 57% of the respondents were male with 43% being female. In terms of age, 2% of the respondent were aged 18 and below; 25% aged 19-29; 33% aged 30-40, 32% aged 41-51, and 8% aged 52 and above. Results. Offender’s religion is not related to engagement in nancial CPV, [C (1, N=258) = 0.59, ² p=0.44]. Offender’s age is related to involvement in psychological violence [C (1, N=258) = ² 18.4, p=0.001]. Offender’s gender is related to engagement in physical CPV [C (1, N=258) = ² 32.1, p=0.001]. Conclusions. The study revealed that religion is not a signi cant factor in uencing CPV. Age and gender on the other hand are signi cant factors. Grounded on this, the study recommends that non-governmental organizations could be established to educate the general public on the issue of CPV and its dangers.
