Abstract

Gender inequality in domestic and emotional responsibilities remained strongly embedded in modern families. This study aimed to examine how domestic and emotional roles were represented and negotiated in dual-income families in Surabaya. A descriptive qualitative approach was employed, involving five urban families selected through purposive sampling. Data were collected over three months through semi-structured interviews and participatory observation. The results indicated that domestic and emotional work was still dominated by women, with primary responsibilities largely assigned to them, while men’s involvement tended to be occasional and was socially perceived as voluntary. Subtle resistance strategies adopted by women, such as delaying housework or involving their sons, rarely led to sustained changes in the division of labor. The study concluded that efforts toward gender equality in the domestic sphere required gender-responsive policies, expanded paternity leave, and early gender equality education. These measures were essential to encourage men’s active participation in household labor and to foster more egalitarian family relationships.

Abstract

This research was driven by a long-standing problem and the high number of students enrolling in private, face-to-face elementary schools. The purpose of this study was to examine parents' strategies and expectations in choosing an elementary school for their children to ensure an ideal education. This study used a qualitative approach with a case study method. Data analysis was conducted using source triangulation. The data analysis technique used a synchronization between the ideal school selection strategy for children and Talcott Parsons' structural-functional theory. The results showed that Adaptation (A) is reflected in parents' motivation and expectations for their children's education. Goal Attainment (G) is reflected in parents' considerations of school quality and available facilities. Integration (I) is reflected in parents' perceptions of their children and their educational needs. Latency (L) reflects parents' trust in the school and its education system. The survey results showed that the main factors considered by parents were teacher quality and school reputation, with 86.6% and 70%, respectively, rating these factors as very important. Facilities, location, and educational costs were also important considerations. Recent trends and their influence are beginning to be noticed, albeit to a slightly lesser extent. In general, parents prioritize school quality and reputation when choosing a school for their children.
