Abstract
We explored the impact of grandparent involvement and coparenting conflicts on children’s socio-emotional development in Chinese American families. In this pilot study with 30 families, structured interviews and validated scales assessed parenting styles, family expressiveness, and coparenting dynamics. Findings highlight the importance of harmonious relationships in fostering positive child outcomes.
