Abstract

The article focuses on a qualitative study examining how Chinese immigrant mothers in Canada reconstruct their parenting narratives through life experiences and digital platforms. Conducted by researchers at the University of Calgary, the study highlights the sociocultural influences and subjective interpretations that shape these mothers' beliefs, revealing tensions between traditional Chinese practices and idealized Western approaches. The findings suggest that social media serves as a space for reimagining parenting goals while also presenting challenges for integration into local contexts. This research contributes to discussions on cultural psychology and family studies in a globalized, digital age. [Extracted from the article]
