It is important to understand how incarcerated men conceptualize fatherhood for reentry. Sixteen interviews explored attitudes and feelings about parenthood, family planning, and challenges and strengths regarding fatherhood. Transcriptions were analyzed for themes using open coding. Parenting themes: being active in children's lives, financial stability, and giving children better lives. Family planning themes: preventing sexually transmitted infection, creating stable families, importance of family planning, and birth control methods. Men were motivated to be stable fathers and utilize family planning to create stability; men expressed need for better partner communication. Fathers struggled to provide support/stability for children but expressed openness to learning parenting skills and family planning methods. Reentry strategies may address these themes to rehabilitate men and enhance family planning.
了解被监禁的男性如何理解重返社会后的父亲角色是很重要的。通过 16 次访谈,探讨了他们对为人父母、家庭计划以及为人父母的挑战和优势的态度和感受。使用开放式编码对转录本进行主题分析。育儿主题:积极参与孩子的生活、经济稳定和给孩子更好的生活。家庭计划主题:预防性传播感染、创建稳定的家庭、家庭计划的重要性和避孕方法。男性有动力成为稳定的父亲,并利用家庭计划来创造稳定;男性表示需要更好的伴侣沟通。父亲们努力为孩子提供支持/稳定,但表示愿意学习育儿技能和家庭计划方法。重返社会的策略可能会解决这些主题,以改造男性并加强家庭计划。
