Parenting

Parenting refers to the various activities, responsibilities, and approaches involved in raising and nurturing children. It encompasses the practices, behaviors, and emotional support that adults provide to their children from infancy through adulthood. Parenting includes aspects such as providing food, shelter, education, and guidance, as well as instilling values, morals, and social skills. It can occur in multiple contexts, including biological, adoptive, or foster relationships and can be influenced by cultural, social, and economic factors. Effective parenting aims to promote the physical, emotional, social, and intellectual development of the child, fostering their overall well-being and preparing them to become independent, functioning members of society.
