ABSTRAK
Disertasi ini bertajuk “Praktik Pola Asuh Ayah dalam Membina Karakter Anak
di Lingkungan Keluarga Tenaga Kerja Wanita” (Studi kasus pada Keluarga TKW di Desa Sindangmulya Kecamatan Kutawaluya Kabupaten Karawang). Masalah pokok penelitian ini adalah, ”Bagaimana praktik pola asuh ayah dalam membina karakter anak di lingkungan keluarga TKW tersebut ?”. Pola asuh di lingkungan keluarga yang antara lain bertujuan membina karakter anak, seharusnya dilakukan bersama-sama oleh ayah dan ibu. Namun, ketika ibu tidak di rumah, otomatis tanggung jawab pengasuhan anak beralih sepenuhnya kepada ayah, yang juga berstatus sebagai pencari nafkah bagi keluarganya. Karena bertujuan mengungkapkan secara mendalam gambaran praktik pola asuh ayah dalam membina karakter anak di lingkungan keluarga TKW tersebut, maka dipilih pendekatan kualitatif. Responden penelitian ini adalah para ayah yang istrinya bekerja sebagai TKW di Saudi Arabia; beserta anak-anak mereka. Teknik pengumpulan datanya melalui observasi; wawancara mendalam; dan studi literatur. Teknik analisis data, diawali dengan reduksi data, display data, dan penarikan kesimpulan. Bersamaan dengan itu, dilakukan triangulasi sumber data, sebagai salah satu komponen uji kredibilitas data dalam penelitian kualitatif. Berdasarkan hasil penelitian tampak, tipologi pola asuh dominan yang dilakukan ayah, yaitu autoritatif, dengan karakteristik sikap pengasuhan penuh kasih sayang dan kehangatan, pemberian kebebasan disertai batasan tertentu terhadap anak, komunikasi harmonis antara ayah dan anak, pengembangkan kemandirian anak; serta menghormati pendapat dan keputusan anak, sebagai penghargaan terhadap keberadaan mereka; nilai-nilai karakter yang dibinakan meliputi religius, jujur, tanggung jawab, toleransi, rasa ingin tahu, peduli lingkungan, bersahabat/komunikatif, peduli sosial, kreatif, demokratis, disiplin, kerja keras, dan mandiri; perbedaan tipologi pola asuh ayah, menghasilkan karakter anak yang berbeda juga; intensitas interaksi antara ayah dengan anak; anak dengan anak dipengaruhi tipe pola asuh ayah; peran keluarga luas cukup penting dalam pengasuhan dan pembinaan karakter anak di lingkungan keluarga TKW tersebut.
