Improve Parenting Practices and Child Development: Cases from Kaushambi, India

The goal of this research is to understand how aware mothers are of the impact of their actions on child psychology. Descriptive statistics are used to study the lifestyle of the respondents. It is inferred that benighted mothers are ignorant about the documented research parenting practices, unlike educated mothers who have websites/ books/support groups to refer from. This participatory action research is based on experience sharing to spread knowledge. It was used to create self-help groups through mutual support. One’s thought process was more streamlined and there was a noteworthy improvement in child behavior. There is a higher probability of the developments to reflect in society, in near future. Public awareness is improved. This study would augment understanding of parenting in rural societies and re-frame the health and education policies to improve the current social work and create a co-parenting club. The findings are applicable to developing economies as Bogin et. al (2014) say globalization is a social change process. This research is non-statistical as suggested by Henry et. al. (2016).
