Özet

This study aimed to examine the relationship between parents' gender roles and parent-child interaction with a phenomenological approach. The data collected from diverse families from different socioeconomic levels were presented using qualitative analysis. The number of participants in the study was 60 (20 children, 20 fathers, 20 mothers). In the study, families at the middle socioeconomic level work in office jobs in public and private institutions, while families at the low socioeconomic level work in farming and animal husbandry activities. The data collected using a voice recorder with the consent of the participants were analyzed through content analysis following the process of code-category and theme creation. The data collected using a voice recorder with the consent of the participants were analyzed using content analysis. The most striking result of the current study is the reflection of sexist attitudes seen in both socioecoenomic contexts in family interactions on parental interactions with children. As a result of the study, it was concluded that mothers and fathers exhibited attitudes towards gender role stereotypes in their home routines and interactions with children. This situation is more intense in families living at a low socioeconomic level and at a considerable level in other families. Children's interaction with both parents is limited. However, as a result of gender role stereotypes (children are the mother's job), children's interaction with fathers is much less.
