Researching Experience of Fathers with Secure and Insecure Attached Children Related to Time Spent with Children During Working or Vacation Days

Abstract

This study aims to research fathers' experiences of having time with their securely and insecurely attached children on workdays and vacation days. Case study, one of the qualitative research methods, was used in the research. Children, at the 5-6 years of age group receiving pre-school education, and their fathers, selected through criterion sampling method in the 2021-2022 academic year, participated in the study. Data were collected by interviewing with 20 fathers in total, including 10 fathers whose children were securely attached to them, and 10 fathers whose children were insecurely attached to them. Content analysis was performed on the acquired data. As a result of the research, it has been seen that fathers of children with secure attachment spend more time with their children on work and vacation days, take part in care needs more, meet their playing needs more, and develop a closer emotional relationship in comparison with fathers of children with insecure attachment.
