Outline of Final Research Achievements

In order to clarify the actual situation of collaboration between mothers and fathers and their mutual understanding when a parent and child enrolls in a nursery school, information was collected from the staff in charge of the family in question. While there were cases where the mother and father continued to communicate closely with each other while the child was enrolled in the nursery school, there were also cases where the mother had almost no understanding of the father's actual living situation at home while enrolled in the nursery school, and the staff were unable to intervene to promote collaboration between the couple. In the future, interviews will be conducted with the staff and the family in question to understand various situations.
