Why is it important?
The study found that children in high density urban areas experience low quality child rearing practices in put them at risk to develop the potentials. This is important because it highlight the of investing in high density areas to support children's development
Perspectives
I hope that this paper is a great addition in the field of early childhood development as research and intervention in the context of Tanzania has tended to draw attention to rural areas ignoring urban areas. The paper also serves as the baseline information for practitioners interested in investing in children in urban areas
