Asian Parenting Today
Asian Parenting Today was borne from numerous requests by parents with whom the authors - Jennifer Hor, Ho Ai Ling and Jocelyn Oo have worked with over the past decade to publish a book that specifically addresses the issues and concerns of Asian parents today.
Asian parents today are often faced with the quandary of either subscribing to western practices or following the traditional customs of their mothers and grandmothers before them. This book addresses many of the very common childcare issues that parents today face, with special emphasis on and respect to Asian cultural beliefs and practices.
More than just an indispensable parenting compendium for modern parents in the first year of baby's life, Asian Parenting Today also provides real-life questions and practical, realistic solutions for new parents to help make their parenting experience an enjoyable, stress free one.
