“…At the same time, the findings suggest that programs do not have to be “about” or exclusively focused on culture to support cultural socialization or appeal to Latinx parents. Many of the caregivers saw programs as offering opportunities for youth to learn about their own and others’ cultural histories and practices (see also Lin et al, 2018). Moreover, language (e.g., use of Spanish) did not emerge as a major issue for parents; instead, other aspects of cultural socialization (beliefs, values, traditions) were more salient.…”

“…Latinx parents who enrolled their children in community-based Spanish language programs in Los Angeles valued language maintenance but placed differential emphasis on the value of biculturalism (Carreira & Rodriguez, 2011). Finally, a recent study found that, when asked about perceived benefits of organized activities for their adolescent children, Mexican-origin parents mentioned the acquisition of skills relating to both mainstream (American) and traditional (Mexican) cultural values (Lin, Simpkins, Gaskin, & Menjívar, 2018). This body of work indicates that cultural issues may be salient to parents’ views of organized youth programs.…”

“…Mainstream activities often focus on a specific skill (e.g., sports, performing arts) or are general programs serving diverse youth. Although there is little research on the ethnic minority cultural features of mainstream activities, preliminary findings suggest that mainstream activities offer some cultural benefits to ethnic minority adolescents, such as reinforcement of Latino ethnic cultural values (Lin, Simpkins, Gaskin, & Menjívar, 2018).…”

“…Parents' beliefs about youth' s organized activities often have been characterized by (a) what parents view as the benefits and drawbacks of activities in general and (b) parents' beliefs about a specific activity for their child. Parents believe activities teach youth a number of life skills, such as respect, discipline, responsibility, teamwork, and conflict resolution (Dunn, Kinney, & Hofferth, 2003;Lin, Simpkins, Gaskin, & Menjívar, 2018). Parents in middle-or high-income families describe activities as an essential experience of childhood because they provide what they view as the necessary human and social capital for their children to successfully transition into adulthood (e.g., entry into elite universities; Lareau, 2011;Levey Friedman, 2013).…”
