- Abstract
The increasing participation of young women who are married in the workforce around the world leaves a problem that invites controversy about the fulfillment of children’s rights. Early childhood care is now plural involving the role of parties other than their biological parents. Then, how exactly is the picture of problems faced in children’s development in terms of the condition of their working mothers? It is an exciting thing to research. This study seeks to explain the problems of early childhood development experienced among families with the status of women or mothers as working mothers by using a qualitative approach and narrative research. With the research locus centered in Indonesia, this study revealed that children’s emotional development is one aspect of child development often complained of by obstacles. Although the picture found tends to be diverse. With varying levels of barriers, the data found in several families show that the role of mothers in mothers with working status contributes to the formation of optimal emotional development of children.
