“…Further, we were unable to survey fathers, who may have different perspectives. Given fathers’ increasing roles in child care [ 29 ], fathers’ perspectives need to be taken into account by health practitioners. Finally, whilst the present study provides an initial overview of mothers’ perspectives of probiotic use in infants, the design did not allow for detailed investigation surrounding attitudes.…”

BackgroundProbiotic products that may modify the intestinal microbiota are becoming increasingly available and known to consumers due to their potential to prevent or treat many pediatric health conditions. As scientific knowledge of the health benefits of probiotics increases, it is important to identify factors that may prevent their successful integration into patient care as well as to ensure effective translation of research findings. The aim of this study was to describe maternal perspectives on probiotics and their use in infants.MethodsMothers with a child aged two years or younger enrolled in the Alberta Pregnancy Outcomes and Nutrition (APrON) study were invited by email to complete a 29 item self-administered web-based questionnaire.ResultsA total of 413 mothers of the 1327 contacted completed the questionnaire. The majority (99.3%) of respondents had heard of probiotics and were aware that they contained live bacteria (87.0%); 89.3% had used a product containing probiotics themselves but only 50.8% had given one to their infant. Most mothers indicated they believed that probiotics were beneficial (73.1%) and none thought they were harmful. Over a third of mothers did not feel informed enough to make a decision on whether probiotics were safe to use in infants (36.6%).ConclusionsThe study demonstrates that awareness and understanding of probiotics is high among mothers in Alberta, Canada. However, there is still uncertainty regarding the benefit of probiotics as well as safety in infants which could be important factors determining therapeutic use in the future. Further studies that demonstrate beneficial effects and safety of probiotics in healthy infants as well as targeted knowledge translation should help to address these potential concerns.

“…Hasil ini menunjukkan bahwa peran ayah dalam mendukung ekonomi keluarga lebih besar, hal ini terlihat dari banyaknya jumlah ibu yang tidak bekerja dan tidak memberikan respon. Menurut Seward and Stanley-Stevens (2014), peran dan tanggung jawab ayah ditentukan oleh budaya asalnya. Dalam budaya Indonesia, peran dan tanggung jawab ayah adalah sebagai pencari nafkah, sedangkan ibu lebih berperan besar dalam pengasuhan anak.…”

Kesiapan bersekolah (school readiness) menjadi dasar bagi keberhasilan pendidikan seorang anak di masa depan. Hasil penelitian di berbagai literatur menunjukkan bahwa kesiapan bersekolah seorang anak tidak hanya tergantung kepada umur dan tahap perkembangan anak, karena anak tidak tumbuh dan berkembang dengan sendirinya. Tumbuh kembang anak dipengaruhi juga oleh faktor lingkungan di sekitar anak, pola asuh orang tua, serta kondisi kesehatan dan asupan nutrisi anak. Kementerian Pendidikan dan Kebudayaan telah mengembangkan suatu instrument Kesiapan Bersekolah untuk anak usia dini berdasarkan 5 dimensi kesiapan bersekolah dari the National Education Goals Panel (NEGP, 1995), meliputi dimensi kesehatan fisik dan perkembangan motorik, perkembangan sosial-emosional, perkembangan kognitif, perkembangan bahasa, serta motivasi dan sikap kerja anak. Instrumen Kesiapan Bersekolah tersebut telah digunakan untuk melaksanakan pemetaan Kesiapan Bersekolah di 12 provinsi. Artikel ini memaparkan hasil pemetaan kesiapan bersekolah tersebut, dengan fokus pada lima dimensi Kesiapan Bersekolah dan faktor-faktor lain yang terlibat, misalnya keterlibatan orang tua dan dukungan masyarakat.

“…This spurred the traditional breadwinning and domestic labor divisions that persist today [14]. Traditions and culture are important in determining how fathers make sense of their roles [39,63]. Even within among a specific cultural group of "White, North American, middle-class" fathers [39], employment differences lead to different perceptions and identities in the role that fathers play (e.g., "stay-at-home" versus "unemployed") [63].…”

The number of stay-at-home dads (SAHDs) in the U.S. has risen dramatically over the past 30 years. Despite gaining social acceptability, SAHDs still experience isolation and judgment in their offline environments. This research explores how SAHDs use the Internet and social media related to their roles as fathers. We conducted interviews with 18 SAHDs about their families, their identities, and their social experiences. We find that they turn to social media to gain social support and overcome isolation they experience offline. However, they engage in strategic selfdisclosure on particular platforms to avoid judgment related to being SAHDs. They rely on online platforms to give off both traditionally feminine and masculine impressions-as loving caregivers of their children while simultaneously as do-it-yourself men who make things around the house. Through creating Facebook groups and using anonymous social media sites, SAHDs create multidimensional social networks that allow them to cope better with the role change. We reflect on the evolving roles of SAHDs in society, and put forth an argument for greater support for diverse kinds of parenting online.
