摘要

童年經驗是人格發展的基礎，父母的教養態度與方式對子女的人格發展、認知能力、自我概念與社會行為的發展佔有重要角色。文獻指出教養受到父母的安適狀態、孩子的氣質與社會文化等因素的影響。新移民婦女視養育子女是生活的重心與人生的目標，子女為其生命的轉換；然而，相對於台灣的母親，他們需要更加努力才能在社會生存。新移民婦女來台養育子女的議題實值得關注。本文透過教養的觀點及相關研究，於新移民婦女婚姻生活的脈絡下，闡述其教養子女可能面臨的情況，以提供健康照護人員認識新移民婦女所面臨的可能困境，提供適切協助，增進母職角色適應以利子女健康地成長與發展。

Childhood experience is a cornerstone of personality development. A child's cognitive function, self-concept, and behavioral development relate significantly to parental attitudes as well as to the way they were treated during childhood. The literature suggests a significant association between parenting practices and the mental health of the parents, temperament of the child, and socio-cultural factors. Raising children is typically central to the life of transnational marriage women living in Taiwan. They view parenting children as a life transforming experience. However, they must invest more effort than local mothers to survive in Taiwan. Thus, it is worth investigating the parenting practices of this significant subset of Taiwan's population. This paper applied parenting concepts to describe the condition and possible problems of immigrant women in parenting children. Based on study results, we summarize transnational marriage and its impact on parenting practices. The authors hope this paper provides information useful to identifying parenting difficulties faced by immigrant mothers so that healthcare professionals can provide relevant information and assistance to improve overall parenting practices and benefit the development of Taiwan's youngest generation.
