Adolescence is a very active period of person’s different changes in body and mind. There are diverse facets that mark child's life. This paper highlights empirical results of a study of home environment of school going adolescents of age group 16-19 years. The purposes of the study are to study the nature of the variable under study viz. home environment and to find the gender difference on home environment of adolescents. The results revealed that there exists no major difference with regard to home environment except in the area of permissiveness where adolescent boys face more problem than adolescent girls. The mean score of adolescent girls is more as compared to boys that indicates that adolescent girls are provided with more opportunities to direct their outlooks freely and act according to their desires in comparison to adolescent boys.
