Mobile Parenting and Global Mobility: The Case of Filipino Migrant Mothers
Abstract
This chapter focuses its attention on Filipino mothers in diaspora and their mediated parenting as it tackles the centrality of mobile communication in transnational parenting. Apart from describing Filipino migrant mothers' mobile parenting practice in terms of the occurrence and content of their mediated parenting efforts, this chapter discusses mobile parenting by looking into the intersections of the socio-demographic, socio-economic, and socio-political landscapes of Filipino migrant mothers' mobile parenting with the social and technological dimensions of mobile parenting. In describing the landscapes, dimensions, and practice of Filipino migrant mothers' mobile parenting, evidence from interviews of 32 Singapore-based Filipino migrant mothers were supplemented by evidence from the literature on Filipino migrant parents and their transnational parenting efforts, their children left behind, and their children's caregivers.
