The interview will provide a pseudo, indirect dialogue between the parents and their respective child/children. This strategy will prevent any unwanted conflicts between parents and children during the interview process, which are inevitable especially if one group voices out a contradicting point given by the other group.
For the FGDs, three groups will be formed and considered as the units of analysis for this method: group 1 will be the parents group; group 2 will be the children group; and group 3 will be a mixture of the first two groups. The researcher will invite as discussants the informants from the in-depth interviews. This will be done so that the discussants will have mastery of the topic at hand, thereby increasing the synergy and level of interaction among each member of the group. Also, another reason for choosing as discussants the informants from the interview is to allow the researcher to verify whether the informant's opinion or feeling about a topic will change when other factors have been included, such as external influence from other parents, children, or when faced...
Included in the FGD will be an assistant moderator and an observer, whose primary role is to take note of the kind of interaction taking place during the FGD. The observer shall take note of any power plays, dominance, or submissiveness happening among the members of the group, while the assistant moderator shall monitor whether the discussion is following the objectives of the study.
After the interviews and FGDs, the researcher will transcribe each interview and FGD session verbatim. Furthermore, in the analysis of these data/transcripts, open coding will be used, wherein the researcher will identify the emergent themes, which may or may not have similarities or common characteristics with each other. From these themes, categories will be made in order to determine the parenting styles extant among the families used as units of analysis for the study. Upon identification of these important research factors, a program will be created by the researcher that best describes the informants' and discussants' feelings and opinion about the topic.

Interventions that emphasized the balanced approach do look at the deficits and dysfunctions of the individual, but also identify family and community strengths, to draw upon.

, 1999). In many areas of the country this may be very accurate. Another problem that comes into the picture where obesity in children is concerned is that many parents must work very long hours today to pay bills and have money for what their family needs (Mokdad, et al., 1999).
