CHILD REARING PRACTICES IN INDIA

Dr. Archana Anand

Child rearing practices affect child's emotional, psychosocial and psychomotor development. Children living in poverty and malnourishment will have poor psychosocial development in the first many times of life. They were unfit to profit completely from education and generally fail to achieve satisfactory situations of education and latterly have poor employment openings. This has counter accusations for both the existent, public and profitable fronts. Positive and good child rearing practices insure the proper growth and development of the child. It decreases the threat of mortality and morbidity in the child and it prevents suppressing and underweight. Discipline helps to develop and lodge desirable social habits in children and foster sound morals, so the child will develop and maintain self-discipline. Thus, to understand the living practices and measure this was of at most important. But a culturally applicable, validated and comprehensive tool to measure the being child rearing practices wasn't available. Consequently a suitable tool was developed and validated so that this scale could be used for the said purpose. In future also others who intend to measure the child rearing practices could use this tool. We used this tool to measure the frequency of positive child rearing practices. There was no empirical evidence to say that one particular type of child rearing is the stylish way to do this. Each parent would do this according to his/ her belief, environment, culture and his fiscal conditions, assuming that his/ her practices would be ideal. But this affects the child in the below said ways. There were several factors associated with positive child rearing practices which were to be assessed so that we could find out predictors of child rearing practices and this could be used for future prognostications and plan for interventions to control the negative predictors and to promote the positive predictors. For this purpose, we had to make a penurious model with no confounding or co linearity of the predictors. We tried to make such a model also. These are the reasons which justify the present exploration.
