7. How Does Authoritarian Parenting Affect A Child?

Parenting styles in different cultures.Rita Pira grew up in a family from a Middle Eastern background with strict cultural rules and boundaries.  Attending a regular local school in Chicago, Rita found it difficult to fit in when she was unable to socialise and enjoy the freedom other kids did.   Making friends was hard and Rita soon found herself being brutally bullied on a daily basis.  Rita's parents had very strict ideas around what was acceptable based on their Assyrian culture and this included what Rita should wear, how she should behave, that she should get married and have children as soon as possible and to ensure her husband was also Assyrian.  This is Rita's story of what childhood was like in a suffocating environment and how she has managed to break free and live the life she has always dreamed of.  You can find Rita on instagram https://www.instagram.com/rawveganrita/ on apple podcasts shorturl.at/sNPQ2 and spotify shorturl.at/fqE18Rita's book recommendations:- The Universe Has Your Back by Gabrielle Bernstein https://amzn.to/3odCBey  A Return To Love by Marianne Williamson https://amzn.to/3pBxm8GIf you have a story to share for this podcast please connect with me at https://www.instagram.com/mybigloveproject or send an email to [email protected].  I would love to connect with you.
