These following graphs and results are categorised as the parenting styles, comparing the three cultures as well as the different generations to show the similarities and differences between them. Authoritarian Parenting: [pic] According to this graph, it shows the use of the Authoritarian Parenting throughout the different generations. It clearly shows that from the Baby Boomers generation this parenting style have been decreasing in numbers all the way through to the Generation Z.

Authoritative Parenting: [pic] According to this graph, it shows that the Authoritative Parenting style is more used with Generation Z and slowly decreases all the way through to the Baby Boomers Generation. Therefore, this shows that in the past, the Authoritative Parenting style wasn’t as common as it is today. In relation to the cultures, the Filipino culture has used this parenting style more on Generation Z and Y as compared to Generation X and the Baby Boomers. In the Indian culture, from Generation Z to Generation X, the numbers have stayed steady where it then decreases by 1 at the Baby Boomers Generation. The Australian culture however, dominates the Generation Z, Generation Y and Baby Boomers, with using the Authoritative Parenting style as the most common. Surprisingly, research has revealed that during the Generation X, Australian culture showed no usage of the Authoritative Parenting Style. Permissive Parenting: [pic] According to this graph, the use of Permissive Parenting Style isn’t as common as the Authoritative and the Authoritarian. These results don’t really show any patterns. In the Indian culture, there were two participants which have been recorded as Permissive both from the Generation Z. As for the Filipino culture, it was only recorded from the Generation Y where only 1 was noted. However, in the Australian culture, it showed that both in Generation Y and the Baby Boomers, they both used this parenting style as evident with the 2 participants from each generation. Uninvolved Parenting: [pic] According to this graph, it shows proves the uncommonness of the parenting style – Uninvolved Parenting. With the only record noted, was from the Generation Y from the Australian culture. The remaining Generations and cultures all received a zero for the undertaking of the Uninvolved Parenting role. As a result, these graphs have shown the different parenting styles in which the cultures – Filipinos, Indians and Australians have undertaken. It also shows the variation and change in trends between the different generations – Generation Z, Generation Y, Generation X and the Baby Boomers. As for the secondary research results, the following statistics have been obtained based on the parenting styles.
