When Values Collide: Exploring a Cross Cultural Issue.
Gonzalez-Mena, Janet
Child Care Information Exchange, n108 p30-32 Mar-Apr 1996
Examines the question of crossing cultures in early childhood education settings. Suggests that parenting education should focus on clarifying parents' values and goals rather than on socializing them into the standard early childhood perspectives. Suggests that early childhood educators help people clarify their cultural values and examine how their approach to child rearing and early education compares with these values. (AA)
