The Latino population in the United States continues to grow and
now represents 12% of the population. Yet, remarkably little
attention has been paid to understanding parenting and child
development processes among Latino families. Although research on
Latino parenting is beginning to emerge, the field is in need of
further structure and direction. This volume addresses this need
and advances the field both by presenting state-of-the-art research
on Latino parenting and also by proposing conceptual and
methodological frameworks that can provide the field with further
integration and direction.
In addition to presenting innovative research examining parental
beliefs and practices of Latino families from different
socioeconomic and cultural backgrounds, authors provide frameworks
for identifying the origins of these beliefs and practices, and
provide a rich picture of both the values that can be considered
Latino and the social and demographic normative and at-risk Latino
samples. Finally, methodological and conceptual recommendations for
future research on each cited area, as well as the field, are
presented.
