The study was conducted in the rehabilitation center of Manila to determine the demographic profile of street children using inhalation agents in terms of gender, identify the substance they use ,determine the factors that contribute to inhalant usage of respondents in terms of a.) stressful environment factors; b.) cultural characteristic and determine whether there is a significant relationship between demographic profile and stressful environment of the street children and demographic profile and cultural characteristic of street children. Data gathered were obtained from the street children of the said Rehabilitation Center. A non probability sampling design was used in this study which is a descriptive rehabilitation survey method where data are gathered from the total number of cases in the center at a particular time. Data were analyzed and presented using tables, frequency counts, and percentage. The environment of the street children was not strongly associated to the child's demographic profile such as age, gender, and education. Male street children generally have higher family income than those female street children. Findings imply that despite high income, male street children are still using inhalants as opposed to female street children who were using inhalants because of low income.
Male street children generally did not receive much guidance from their parents than their female counterpart. Hence, male street children usually were not properly guided by their parents which may be the reason why they resorted to substance use. Street children who reached a much older age of 17 years old are delegated with the responsibility of earning for their family. This is the reason why significant relationship exists between the age of street children and the breadwinner in the family.
