Abstract

V raziskavi sem analizirala lastno doživljanje vloge očeta v zgodnjem otroštvu ter raziskovala izkušnje očetov z vzgojo in skrbjo za otroke, usklajevanjem poklicnih obveznosti in družinskega življenja ter izkušnjo podpore na prehodu v očetovstvo. Neslučajnostni priložnostni vzorec je zajemal 10 očetov, ki imajo otroke stare med enim in petim letom. Z očeti so bili izvedeni poglobljeni intervjuji. Rezultati kažejo, da očetje svojo vlogo dojemajo kot večdimenzionalno, kar vključuje finančni in skrbstveni vidik preskrbe družine, nego in vzgojo otrok ter podporo partnerici. Poleg tega rezultati kažejo, da očetovstvo prinaša pomembne spremembe v odnosih, saj je partnerski odnos pogosto izpostavljen izzivom (pomanjkanje časa v dvoje, preobremenjenost), med udeleženimi so se odnosi s sorodniki v večini izboljšali, medtem ko so se stiki s prijatelji zmanjšali. Raziskava izpostavlja tudi ključne izzive očetovstva, kot so dvojnost vloge očeta kot preskrbovalca in skrbnega starša, občutek oddaljenosti od odnosa med materjo in otrokom ter pomanjkanje svobode. Pomemben vir podpore na prehodu v očetovstvo so družinski člani, predvsem stari starši, ki nudijo praktično pomoč. Udeleženi izpostavijo tudi podporo patronažne sestre, ki jih v začetku usmeri pri negi otroka. Na podlagi rezultatov predlagam večje ozaveščanje o vlogi očetov in njihovem duševnem zdravju ter odpiram prostor za nadaljnje raziskovanje novega očetovstva.

Secondary title: The New Fatherhood: The Father's Role in Early Childhood
Secondary abstract: In this study, I analyzed fathers’ personal experiences of their role during early childhood and explored their perspectives on parenting and caregiving, balancing professional obligations with family life, and their experiences of support during the transition to fatherhood. The non-probability convenience sample included 10 fathers with children aged between one and five years, who participated in in-depth interviews. The findings reveal that fathers perceive their role as multidimensional, encompassing financial provision, caregiving, child-rearing, and supporting their partner. Additionally, the results show that fatherhood brings significant changes to relationships: while partnerships often face challenges such as lack of couple time and feelings of being overwhelmed, relationships with extended family members (e.g., grandparents) generally improve, whereas friendships tend to diminish. The study also highlights key challenges of fatherhood, including the dual role of being both a provider and a nurturing parent, feelings of being excluded from the mother-child bond, and a perceived lack of personal freedom. A vital source of support during the transition to fatherhood is the extended family, particularly grandparents, who provide practical assistance. Participants also emphasized the helpful role of visiting nurses, who offer guidance on early childcare practices. Based on these findings, I propose raising awareness about the importance of fathers’ roles and their mental health, while creating opportunities for further exploration of new fatherhood.
