With families increasingly spanning countries, cultures, and languages, staying connected across borders can be both challenging and meaningful. In The Cross-Cultural Parenting Playbook (Multilingual Matters), Shresthova explores how families navigate the complexities of cross-cultural parenting. Through stories of multilingual households, faraway relatives, and testimonies from parents and children adapting to life between cultures, Shresthova examines the vital use of media in maintaining connection. Video calls across time zones and shared recipes that evoke memories of home all become ways of preserving traditions, while also creating a sense of belonging in a new place are ideas presented in this practical guide.
