Abstract

The involvement of both parents is essential in the child’s upbringing. Fathers mainly play a role in instilling various values and positive self-concepts in children, which will become the capital of children growing into healthy and productive members of society. In Acehnese society, childcare is mainly done by mothers, while fathers perform more roles outside the home as breadwinners and members of society. This study aims to reveal people’s attitudes regarding the role of fathers in fostering positive self-concept in children. The research uses a quantitative approach. The data was gathered using convenient sampling techniques and collected a sample of 326 participants. The participants filled out the research scale, which was disseminated directly or through an online form administration. The study found that the Acehnese community showed a wide range of attitudes toward the list of fathers’ behaviors in instilling a positive self-concept in children. The results of the study implied that 65.4% of respondents had little hesitation to thoroughly disapprove of the application of the role of fathers in the cultivation of positive self-concept in children. Only 34.6% of participants believe that the list of such actions is prominent. Discussing which behaviors are accepted and which are less accepted becomes influential in strengthening the father’s role in instilling a positive self-concept in the child.
