Abstract


This research aims to explore a father's involvement in parenting following a parenting study. This qualitative research uses a case study method which focuses on fathers' interests and needs in taking part in parenting studies, parenting studies being a source of knowledge and self-development for a father and the involvement of fathers who take part in parenting studies in the parenting process. Participants consisted of three fathers who participated in the Fatherman community. Research data was obtained from observation, interviews and documentation. Research data was analyzed using the Miles and Huberman model. By utilizing parenting studies as a learning resource, fathers have an interest in studying parenting science based on Islamic foundations to be applied in daily care at home. This research describes the picture of fathers' involvement in parenting who took part in parenting studies. This research found several challenges, namely the lack of theory regarding parenting studies and the existence of several boundaries and norms that must be maintained regarding gender differences and marital status. Research recommends that parents, especially fathers, continue to have an interest in learning about parenting sciences to support the growth and development of children in care. It is hoped that this research will be useful for further research.
