Parents have an influence on the sexual and reproductive health of adolescents, but evidence from Sub-Saharan Africa is limited. A better understanding of the relationship between different dimensions of parenting and recent sexual activity and contraceptive use is in the region. Data were collected in 2004 in nationally representative survey of 12-19 year-old in Burkina Faso, Ghana, Malawi and Uganda. Bivariate analysis compared gender differences for two outcomes among unmarried 15-19 year olds having had sexual intercourse in the last 12 months, and among those who had had sex in this period, contraceptive use at last sex. Multivariate logistic regression analysis identified associations between these outcomes and coresidence with parents or parent figures, parental monitoring and parent child communication.
