The Examination of the Single Parenting Experiences of Household-Responsible Single Fathers
Öz
In today’s late-modern society, families consisting of single fathers and their children are becoming increasingly common, representing a family type that is relatively less studied in social sciences compared to single mothers. This research aims to understand the experi-ences of single fathers in the Bitlis province, who have taken on the responsibility of head-ing their households for various reasons (such as the death of a spouse, divorce, or aban-donment). The study involved in-depth interviews with 12 single fathers using a semi-structured interview technique, and the data collected were analyzed using a phenomeno-logical approach. The analysis highlighted themes such as the reasons for becoming a sin-gle father and emotional reflections, challenges faced and coping methods, responsibilities as heads of the household, and the environmental support received. Additionally, changes in social relationships and feelings of exclusion, the strengthening of father-child bonds, and thoughts on remarriage emerged as other significant themes. Single fathers strive to meet their children's needs and build deep connections with them, managing various chal-lenges despite social norms and limited support, demonstrating considerable resilience. The findings indicate that single fathers require more support in areas such as psychological services, economic aid, educational resources, and flexible working hours.
