Abstract

Chapters 5 and 6 captured the interviews and “Lived Lives” of parenting from different parents. After individual informed consent from each of the interviewees (Appendix 1) in line with BERA, the semi-structured interviews were conducted. The semi-structured interviews that were conducted to gain in-depth understanding of parenting of South Asian parents had some overarching themes. These themes were strongly rooted in their circumstances, social and cultural factors. Most parents shared that they had to quickly adapt, change, and adjust to the new environment in a new country (UK). The reasons for moving to the UK were varied including job opportunities, war-torn regions, better lifestyle, and education for children. All parents overwhelmingly admitted that they had to struggle at an individual family and other levels to shape their parenting styles. Values of life, importance of education, and cultural knowledge were the key themes that were stressed in all interviews
