The researchers utilized unstructured in-depth interview guide questionnaire to fully understand the emotional implications of late childbearing, the most common techniques in child rearing and the generation gap between mothers and children that explained the type of child rearing techniques used. The respondents were composed of nine late childbearing mothers whose ages ranged between 50-65 years old and still lives with her son/daughter whose ages ranged between 15-30 years old. The study made use of the descriptive-qualitative research design. The purpose of the study is to make the people aware of the common parenting styles that late childbearing mothers employed on their child and how these affected their relationship with each other. The researchers found out that the parenting styles had an effect on the emotional implication of late childbearing. Thus, a democratic parenting style resulted to a more open relationship between the mother and the child because it limits their generation gap.
