The African style of child upbringing is acclaimed to be the most effective . It is rooted in strong cultural values and traditions that have been passed down through generations. Here are some reasons why it can be considered as beneficial:

1. Community and Family Focus: In African cultures, raising a child is a collective effort involving not only parents but also extended family members and the community. This sense of communal support provides a nurturing environment for the child and promotes a strong sense of belonging.

2. Emphasis on Respect and Discipline: African child upbringing places a strong emphasis on respect for elders, authority figures, and cultural values. This promotes discipline, obedience, and a sense of responsibility in children leading to a sense of self respect and respect for the law in the African adult.

3. Connection to Nature and Heritage: African child upbringing often involves a deep connection to nature and the land. Children are taught to appreciate and respect the environment, as well as their cultural heritage. This fosters a sense of identity and pride in their roots.

4. Oral Tradition and Storytelling: African cultures have a rich tradition of oral storytelling. Through these stories, children learn important life lessons, values, and cultural history. This helps in developing their imagination, critical thinking, and communication skills.

5. Holistic Education: African child upbringing focuses on holistic education, which includes not only academic knowledge but also practical skills, moral values, and character development. Children are encouraged to explore their talents and learn through hands-on experiences.

Please bring up your child as an African child no matter where you live.
