Stories are what make up our lives, from birth till the end, our stories help us make sense of ourselves, others, and experiences in the world. Throughout this book, the authors explore one of the most vital of stories, childhood and child-rearing with individuals from Greece and the Middle East. Each story presented shares a unique and subjective insight into the world of parenting. What is parenting and does it always look the same? The authors examine the unique cultural norms, generational differences, childhood experiences, and trauma that play a role in parenting practices. But, how does that link back to childhood requirements for healthy development? The authors provide a depth of insight into childhood needs and include tales from children and teens sharing their own perspectives. The authors invite readers to join them on an explorative journey to the East, where narratives meet scientific literature providing an interesting view into the world of different families and their experiences.
