Abstract
Becoming a parent may be easy, but becoming a good one can be difficult—especially if you didn’t grow up with a decent example.

Through research and his own experiences of inspiring mentors, Dr. Akin Odebunmi has learned the value of good parenting and its impact on society as a whole. His easy-to-use guide, Parenting: A Cross-Cultural & Psychological Perspective, offers basic training to parents and mentors alike that will provide a firm foundation and way forward into the most important role of your life: nurturing a child.

When facing a responsibility the author describes as “half miracle and half warfare,” you will want all the guidance and support you can find—and this book offers a wealth of information that can help you better understand your children and teach you how to create a healthy, happy home.

In addition to covering the basics, this guide also addresses subjects including the importance of play in child development, character building and self-esteem, parenting emotionally disturbed kids, and the effects of alcohol abuse.

With the right guidance and support, anyone can be a good parent or mentor. Parenting: A Cross-Cultural & Psychological Perspective will point you in the right direction.
