Child socialization refers to the developmental process through which children acquire and negotiate the knowledge, values, norms, skills, attitudes, and behavioral patterns needed to participate in their social and cultural environments [1][2][3]. It occurs through interactions with parents and other family members, peers, teachers, and broader social and cultural contexts [1][4][5]. Through these interactions, children develop social understanding, emotional competencies, moral orientations, identities, and ways of interacting with others.²,³ Child socialization is a bidirectional and context-dependent process: children are influenced by socialization agents while also actively interpreting, responding to, and shaping their social experiences and relationships [2][6]. The process may involve both deliberate practices, such as instruction, guidance, and discipline, and less intentional influences arising from everyday interactions, routines, relationships, and social environments. Child socialization therefore encompasses the ongoing interaction between children and the social contexts in which their development occurs.
