Abstract

Abstract: The absence of a father figure is a factor for a child to be involved in social problems, which is like juvenile delinquency. The father plays an important role in the family, namely as a breadwinner, protector, friend, role model, moral guide, teacher, and as an important agent for gender role development of a child. This study aims to examine the impact of the father absence on a child's gender-role development. Research method that used by conducting literature studies related to the research topic, namely the absence of a father figure and the gender role development of a child. Based on the results of a literature review, several impacts were found from the absence of a father figure on a child's gender role development. Nevertheless, other studies also show that there is no difference in the a child's gender role development between children who have a father figure or not. Because most of children who do not have a father figure are found to look for other male figures outside the home as their role models or found their mother as a complete figure for them. Therefore, it is important for parents to be a good role model for their child because this can affect the development of their child, especially in the role of gender role development.
