Parenting is tough enough under "normal" circumstances, ie having adequate financial resources and psychosocial support, including both parents and significant others sharing in the responsibilities. It helps, to be raising children in a familiar environment, or at least one's home country with both parents sharing a common culture.
But these ideal circumstances might actually be more of the exception than the rule, especially in our age of mobility. Mobility and migration pose great challenges to individuals, mainly in terms of adjusting to a new environment and culture. These challenges are amplified when the migrants begin a new family in these unfamiliar environments, with partners or spouses coming from cultures different from their own.
Parenting guides rarely consider these challenges that come about from mobility and migration. Lutie Orteza Lee's book is timely, compiling her own parenting experiences as a Filipina who migrated to the United States and had a Chinese husband. Also significant are her experiences as a teacher, and a lay minister, aptly described, together with parenting, as a journey and a search for personal truths.
