In this reply, the authors address the comments of L. Chassin and E. D. Handley (see record 2006-07521-006) and of K. Fromme (see record 2006-07521-007) on the authors' article, "Parental Attachment, Parental Control, and Early Development of Alcohol Use: A Longitudinal Study" (see record 2006-07521-002).
