Methods A total of 1 111 adolescents aged 14 -19 were recruited and completed parental co-parenting scale, adolescent romantic relationship experience questionnaire, and center for epidemiologic studies depression scale. Results The depression scores of adolescents with romantic relationship experience were significantly higher than those without romantic relationship experience. The results of correlation analysis showed that there was a significant positive correlation among father’s negative co-parenting, adolescent romantic relationship experience, and adolescent depression. Father’s negative co-parenting performance significantly positively predicted adolescent depression. Adolescent romantic relationship experience played a regulatory role in father’s negative co-parenting and adolescent depression.
