This qualitative research study aims to provide rich narratives of parental involvement in households of newcomer Latino immigrants in the Midwest. A total of 20 families participated in this 4-month research study. Findings suggest that parents do get involved in traditional ways but view "consejos" (the giving of sage advice) as a form of involvement. Implications for research, theory, and practice are discussed with strong implications for viewing the home sphere as a pedagogical space of familial capital, as well as a rich source of involvement that is often underrecognized in school settings.
