SP - 212 EP - 221 VL - 12 IS - 2-3 N2 - This article first introduces some main ideas behind culture and parenting and next addresses philosophical rationales and methodological considerations central to cultural approaches to parenting, including a brief account of a cross-cultural study of parenting.
