The aim of this research was to explore parenting practices of Indonesian mothers in their transnational marriages with Taiwanese men in order to understand their parenting experiences, including how they deal with differences with their spouse and in-laws, what they have done to face their difficulties, and the resources that might be provided in terms of parenting. Using qualitative design, this research was based on an in-depth interview method using semi-structured and open-ended guideliness. Participants were generated through purposive sampling which based on certain criteria. This research found that focus and expectations of Indonesian foreign mother in Taiwan can be classified to five major areas: religion, character, behavior, education, and cultural identity. This research argues that Indonesian mothers in Taiwan have their own way to manage challenges and difficulties as a foreign mother and do parenting practices that probably are different from Taiwanese.
