Abstract

Parenting needs to be approached by cultural and economic aspects. Our society has become disordered because of the conflicts of multicultural values caused by dramatically developing economy. Between generations there are differences of ideas of many things, which are marriage, diet, daily living, and even relationships with the others. In old days, children were used to learn these values through their extended family. It did not need to be said or shared, but acquired just naturally. We, however, live in a society in which concept of parenting is rapidly changing almost every five years. There is no such a thing called a success or a failure. It can differ based on the perspective we try to look at. There is also difference in peoples' goal. Parenting has a meaning of raising myself, which means that parents become true parents by raising their offspring. Children can be the happiest when they grow surrounded by family and can have strong ties to their parents. There is tremendous amount of stress during perinatal period to both mother and her child. Therefore, closely monitoring mother's anxiety about infant care is the most important step to build proper bonds between a mother and a child. Affection is a crucial mental connection, which makes possible for children to live and also be able to help others. Stable bonds can be foundations of becoming positive and active person and it will affect the child's life entirely. It will be better to teach them how to listen to the others rather than focusing on them too much. Children need to learn how to solve their problems and build their own future. Thus, what parents should do is taking a step back, giving them a time, and waiting for their children to grow up. I believe this is the ultimate parenting purely from love.
