Abstract

Little is known about the prevailing narratives of how to be a “good” parent in American society, and even less is known about parenting emerging adults in Black families. To address these gaps, this qualitative study employed a master narrative approach to investigate the maternal master narratives of parenting and the mechanisms by which Black mothers ( N = 20) of emerging adults navigate such constraints through cultural alternative narratives. Results indicated evidence for a master narrative of parenting emerging adult children with themes focused on education, over-parenting, hands-off parenting, permissive parenting, guidance and support role, and contribution to society. Results also demonstrated how mothers utilized alternative narratives to make sense of their culture in light of American society through themes that emphasized stern parenting, family values, cultural generational awareness, parenting independent of norms, restrictions on parenting, guidance and support role, and contribution to society. Findings indicated instances of microlevel culture. Ultimately, the largest implication from this study included the importance of taking into account culturally related experiences when defining what is “appropriate” parenting.
育儿黄金标准:母亲养育黑人成年子女的主叙事
人们对美国社会如何成为 "好 "父母的主流叙事知之甚少,对黑人家庭养育新兴成人的情况更是知之甚少。为了填补这些空白,这项定性研究采用了一种主叙事方法,以调查养育新兴成人的母亲主叙事以及黑人母亲(20 人)通过文化替代叙事来克服这些限制的机制。研究结果表明,有证据表明存在一种养育新兴成人子女的主叙事,其主题集中于教育、过度养育、放手养育、放任养育、指导和支持角色以及对社会的贡献。研究结果还表明,母亲们如何根据美国社会的情况,通过强调严厉养育、家庭价值观、文化代际意识、独立于规范的养育、对养育的限制、指导和支持作用以及对社会的贡献等主题,利用替代性叙事来理解她们的文化。研究结果显示了微观层面的文化实例。最终,本研究的最大意义在于,在定义什么是 "适当的 "养育方式时,必须考虑到与文化相关的经验。
