Parenting Across Cultures, a second edition by Helaine Selin, has been released at a time when global interest in parenting has surged due to the COVID-19 pandemic. This new edition, like its predecessor, features chapters from various Asian, African, and South American countries, as well as indigenous cultures in several Western nations. The chapters have been updated to reflect the post-pandemic world, highlighting the strong connection between culture and parenting.

Differences in affection, distance, harshness, and repression, as well as acceptance and criticism, are evident across cultures. Some parents prioritize obedience, while others focus on individual development. While these approaches may vary from parent to parent, there is a clear cultural influence that these chapters explore.

In addition to the individual country chapters, the second edition includes a section on the pandemic's impact on parenting. It also includes new research on various topics such as parenting and technology, gender, religion, adoption, step parenting, divorce, single parents, racism, gay parents, disabilities, autism, eating habits, transgender, attachment, migration, bullying, and refugee resettlement.

This comprehensive edition provides valuable insights into the diverse aspects of parenting across cultures and offers valuable guidance for parents worldwide.
