Description
Intercultural Parenting: Exploring Global Approaches to Child Development This book delves into the diverse world of parenting styles, comparing traditional Western approaches with those from Eastern cultures. Dr. Koong Hean Foo examines the impact of different parenting practices on children's development, highlighting both established and evolving techniques. The book covers a range of international parenting styles, including authoritarian, authoritative, permissive, and neglecting approaches, as well as newer methods such as helicopter parenting. It also delves into the relatively neglected research on Eastern parenting practices, providing valuable insights for childcare professionals and students in family studies and developmental psychology. Practical application sections are included to help demonstrate how cultural understanding can inform clinical work, while parental questionnaires encourage self-assessment and reflection.
