Cultural expectations vs. personal values in parenting

Every parent inherits a set of scripts about what good parenting looks like, and the work of a conscious life is to read those scripts honestly before deciding which ones to keep. Culture offers real wisdom and also real harm, often in the same breath. The question is not whether to honor your tradition but which parts of it actually serve the child in front of you.
