Abstract

This research aims to explore mothers' experiences in caring for children with Down syndrome by focusing on the challenges they face and the strategies used to overcome them. This research uses a qualitative phenomenological research type with an Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis (IPA) approach, with a focus on in-depth interviews involving two mothers who have Down syndrome children. The research results show that there are 4 ultimate themes from both subjects, namely (1) Child behavior, (2) Optimism, (3) Emotional turmoil, and (4) Social support. Social support from family and neighbors, and optimism play an important role in helping mothers to overcome the challenges faced in caring for children with Down syndrome. This research provides valuable insight into the importance of social support and optimism in helping individuals, especially mothers with children with Down syndrome, in facing the challenges of caring for children with Down syndrome.

Abstract

This study aims to examine the relationship between adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) and father involvement among fathers who run home-based businesses in Bukittinggi City. The subject of this study consisted of 97 fathers who operate businesses from their homes, have longer working hours at home, and have dependent children, selected through purposive sampling. This study employed a quantitative correlational approach. Data were collected using the Inventory of Father Involvement (IFI) adapted by Fajriati & Kumalasari (2021) and the Adverse Childhood Experiences International Questionnaire (ACE-IQ) adapted by Rahapsari et al. (2021). Data were analyzed using Pearson correlation test after meeting the assumptions of normality and linearity. The results showed a significant negative relationship between ACEs and FI (r = -0.760, p < 0.001), indicating that the higher the exposure to adverse childhood experiences, the lower the level of paternal involvement in childcare. These findings suggest that physical proximity alone does not guarantee quality father involvement,and that early life experiences play a substantial role in shaping parenting behavior in adulthood.
