Abstract

This study explores the dynamics of interpersonal communication between mothers and their children in mitigating the effects of fatherlessness in Bahagia Subdistrict, Bekasi City, Indonesia. Fatherlessness—defined as the absence of a father figure in a child’s emotional and developmental life—has become an increasingly significant social phenomenon, with Indonesia ranking among the highest in the world for fatherless households. The study aims to understand how single mothers manage emotional communication and perform dual parental roles to sustain their children’s psychological well-being. Using a qualitative descriptive approach, data were collected through in-depth interviews and participant observation involving three single mothers and four children living in Bahagia Subdistrict. The findings reveal that effective interpersonal communication—grounded in openness, empathy, supportiveness, positiveness, and equality—strengthens emotional bonds, builds trust, and fosters resilience in children growing up without fathers. Moreover, such communication becomes a key coping mechanism that enables mothers to reduce the negative psychological and social consequences of fatherlessness, such as low self-esteem, social withdrawal, and academic decline. The study contributes to the field of family communication by illustrating the adaptive strategies of single mothers in Indonesia as they balance affection, discipline, and economic responsibilities. The results highlight how communication can function not only as an emotional bridge but also as a practical tool for building stability and maintaining harmony in single-parent households.

Abstract

AbstractThis study aims to examine the relationship between transgender and family in negotiating identity tendencies as transgender. The family is the smallest social group in society, has a vital role in the mental and physical development of each family member, and is also the group most affected by the clash of social norms related to gender construction. The results of this study indicate that transgender people negotiate their identity tendencies with verbal and non-verbal communication, occurring over a long period of time. The dialectical relationships that are established are not linear nor are they bound by space and time. However, the level of intimacy between transgender and family is linear, bound in units of space and time. The level of rejection and acceptance of gender identity will affect the level of intimacy in family relationships. Negotiating identity begins when the research subject experiences awareness of identity tendencies that are different from the social construction of gender. Forming a conceptual dialectic where conflicts that occurred in past relationships are dialectical elements that frame a relationship to be able to overcome subsequent conflicts.Keywords: relationship, transgender, family, dialectic, acceptance AbstrakPenelitian ini bertujuan menelaah hubungan transgender dengan keluarga dalam menegosiasikan kecenderungan identitas sebagai transgender.
