Child-to-parent violence (CPV) is a social problem with important consequences for the mental health of those who suffer from it. The increase in research on CPV has been supported by the increase in the number of reported cases and the severity of their consequences. The objective of this research is to analyze whether the application of an intervention program based on acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) modifies frustration tolerance, self-esteem, self-efficacy, emotional intelligence, depression, and anxiety in teenagers. The participants were 231 individuals who were recruited at a center specializing in adolescents who practice CPV. An acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) intervention group and a control group were established, measuring the variables before the intervention and after 3 months. The results suggest the appropriateness of including ACT interventions in treating CPV, but more research and interventions are needed with adolescents and their families to help them regain control of their lives.
