(1)        Subheading: Parenting Styles of Collectivist Cultures

(2)       If you view the page regarding parenting styles, there are examples and explanations of various parenting styles, but only one small paragraph labeled “cross-cultural variation.” The cross-cultural variation section admits, “these theories of parenting styles are almost entirely based on evidence from high income countries, especially the USA.” My plan, depending on the articles I find, will be to either add to this subsection, or create a new subsection specifically about collectivist culture because it seems like the amount of information on parenting in highly unbalanced and I want practices within other cultures outside the USA to be seen and understood. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parenting_styles

(3)       As I mentioned above, there is only one section in the parenting styles page that discusses cultural variation of parenting styles. The section states, “there is evidence to suggest cultural differences in the way children respond to parenting practices,” but goes on to only speak about one example. My plan is to discuss more examples about this. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parenting_styles

(4)       My plan is to build from what Wikipedia already mentioned their information is lacking, which is information regarding parenting styles outside the USA, particularly lower income countries. My specific interest is parenting within collectivist cultures, which fits Wikipedia’s gap of information. This can be accomplished with building on the existing cross-cultural subsection, or with enough information, expand it to one other separate subsection labeled more specifically “parenting in collectivist cultures.”
