Abstract:
Being parents is an adventure in itself. Being parents in a cross-cultural situation, in exile, away from family and friends, is a double challenge. Today, we know more about the risks and the potential. Let's explore the key ingredients for early childhood: how to live through pregnancy, welcoming the child, being father and mother, building a family in our own way by blending it with local ways of doing things, a more or less hospitable land of welcome. This is followed by a set of guidelines for all the professionals who intervene at this crucial period to build the parent-child bond.

Authoritarian Parenting
This style is strict and controlling, with little room for open dialogue. Authoritarian parents demand obedience and often enforce rules with minimal warmth. Children raised this way may lack social skills and initiative, usually comparing themselves to others unfavorably.
