Description: "There is a strong connection between culture and parenting. What is acceptable in one culture is frowned upon in another. This applies to behavior after birth, encouragement in early childhood, and regulation and freedom during adolescence. There are differences in affection and distance, harshness and repression, and acceptance and criticism ... This clearly differs from parent to parent, but there is just as clearly a connection to culture."--Publishers website
