AbstractThis study was motivated by the fact that fathers did not fulfill their roles optimally for their children due to the physical or psychological absence of the father, which is known as fatherless. Fatherless can have a negative impact on children. One of them is the impact on children's education which is closely related to academic resilience. This study aims to determine the effect of fatherless on the academic resilience of elementary school children. This study was conducted through a quantitative approach with a descriptive method. Data collection was carried out by distributing questionnaires and interviews. The questionnaires were distributed to high-grade children, namely grades IV, V and VI, and interviews were conducted with teachers. The number of child participants involved was 94 children with 9 teachers from three elementary schools in Bandung City. The results of this study prove that there is an influence between fatherless and the academic resilience of elementary school children at SDN 069 Cipamokolan Derwati, SDN 263 Rancaloa and SDN 122 Cijawura, meaning that children's perceptions of their father's absence contribute 14.4%. The implication given from this study is that the presence of a father figure is a valuable moment for children, so education is needed to provide as much information as possible about the role of the father.
