In Islamic social responsibility, the contribution of parents on juvenile delinquency problems has become a byword in the community and even the country. Most of the juvenile delinquency is caused by the lack of contribution of qualified parenting pattern to their children, like Newton’s proverb, that is, ‘apple does not fall far from the tree’. In this article, the author identified the parenting pattern on the juvenile delinquency of empirical study in West Aceh regency. The contribution of parenting was conducted by social and economic theory approach done with quantitative descriptive methods, observation and interviews as well as the questionnaire output by using the empirical method. The methodology used to take sample was stratified random sampling with 5 percent confidence-level alpha. The collection of the sample was carried out by using Slovin tool, that is, 10 percent of the number of teenagers and the age of the parents in 12 sub-districts and junior and senior high school in West Aceh regency. Variables used as indicators of the contribution of parenting on juvenile delinquency are three independent variables, those are, education, economy and time (duration of assistance) to teenagers. Research finding inventory done for 20 samples of the parents showed that the factor of education for teenagers, both formal and informal, is the variable that affects the contribution of parenting. However, after distributing a questionnaire to 16 stakeholders of teenagers in West Aceh, the formation of adolescents for juvenile delinquency is strongly influenced by the variable duration of parenting-assistance time to adolescent. It is suggested that the future researchers continue this study to increase other variable factors and also the parents be aware of feeding education to teenagers from getting into the abyss of juvenile delinquency, as well as a policy brief for the stakeholders.
