Indonesia is one of the countries in the world with a quite dense and culturally diverse population, represented by more than 200 ethnicities. Consequently, cultural values tend to influence parenting. It is widely known that cultural values influence parenting ideals and practices. Not only local cultural values, global parenting values also influence Indonesian parenting practices through parenting books, parenting magazines, and parenting sessions in the offline and online media. All these factors have caused the traditional culture and global culture to coalesce. Drawn upon the literature research, this article aims to discuss the relationship between local and global cultural values in parenting in Indonesia. The literature shows that there is a cultural resistance to Western indoctrination about parenting, however, further research needs to be conducted to unpack how local and global cultural values coalesce, creating a hybridity and influencing parenting in Indonesia.
