Substance misuse is a major problem affecting young people of all races, globally and in South Africa. This article focuses on the coping strategies of parents living with adolescents misusing substances. It is based on a study that received an in-depth understanding of the experiences, challenges, and coping strategies of parents living with adolescents abusing chemical substances in the community of Ramotse in Hammanskraal, Gauteng. A qualitative research approach with purposive and snowball sampling was used. Data was collected through semi-structured interviews and analysed using Tesch's eight steps. Data verification was conducted using Guba's model. The findings showed that most parents living with adolescents misusing substances are struggling to cope with their day-to-day lives. The findings highlighted the following themes which were: Parents avoided talking to adolescents to avoid pain and hurt, parents received comfort in their religion by praying or going to church, parents get spiritual support from the church and their pastors, parents opted to give the adolescents money and finally parents shared that they still have hope that their adolescent child's behaviour will change.
