To explore Latino parents’ perspectives on healthy living and identify strategies to incorporate in future child obesity intervention. Descriptive, qualitative study. Participants were recruited from an emerging Latino community (area with low (<5%) yet growing concentrations of Latinos) in Allegheny County, Pennsylvania. Thirty-two parents of preschool children participated in 5 Spanish-language focus groups. Parents’ perceptions of a healthy lifestyle (i.e., physical activity and nutrition). Data were analyzed using the constant comparison method to identify salient categories, themes, and patterns. Three overarching themes were identified: (1) Healthy living: beyond one’s control; (2) “Estamos acostumbrados” (We are used to [a certain lifestyle]); and (3) Latin American and U.S. culture conflict. In general, parents perceived that maintaining a healthy lifestyle required enormous effort and change is difficult given lack of knowledge and control. Recommendations for future interventions were also discussed. Key intervention approaches with this population may include a focus on the family environment. Increasing knowledge, building self-efficacy and modeling behavior through family recipe preparation and physical activity breaks, and an emphasis and orientation to community resources to support behavior change and physical activity and healthy eating habits may be necessary.
