Popis: | 90 The purpose of this study was to seek and understand the lived experience of the parents who had adolescents living at home. Hermeneutic phenomenology was conducted as the research methodology. Under this methodological perspective, the researcher intended to discover and interpret the nature of lived experience and the hidden meaning of these parents. Semi-structured in-depth interview was the major method to develop the texts. The participants in the study were 5 couples who were interviewed together first, and then individually. Furthermore, the thematic analysis was used to identify and clarify the themes. After intersubjective agreement with the participants, four essential themes were identified. The themes were developed as follows: (a) intuitively receiving and comprehending the growing of the adolescents, (b) enthusiastically rebuilding the relationship between parents and adolescents, (c) unavoidably bearing parents’ responsibility on teaching and rearing the adolescents, and (d) parenting is undertaking role-sharing, complementarity and coordination. Finally this thesis ends with the implications for the parents of adolescents, family education as well as suggestions for future research |
