Title: Arnett argues that “the parenting-style model is a cultural model, rooted in American majority cultu Post by: Kellman on May 31, 2015 Arnett argues that “the parenting-style model is a cultural model, rooted in American majority culture, and does not apply well to most other cultures.” Explain what he means, providing at least one example.

However, the outcomes for children in these cultures were not negative, as they tend to be in the West. For example, in Asian cultures, there is a tradition of filial piety, meaning that children defer to their parents out of respect; there is no discussion or negotiation. This does not mean that the discipline is cold. Likewise, in Latino culture, parents and elders are given respect. Children may perceive this strict parenting style as their parents showing they care. The same parenting behaviors seem to have different meanings in different cultures.
