Abstract | This qualitative multiple case study aimed to portray the experiences of five Filipino teenage fathers. They were chosen through maximum variation sampling. The experiences and coping strategies of the five cases were examined using in-depth interviews. Triangulation of the gathered data was done in each case by interviewing their family members and their partners. Data were analyzed using thematic analysis resulting to three emergent themes on lived experiences of Filipino teenage fathers: proud and happy to be a father; anxious to provide the needs of children and difficult to find a job. The emergent themes for coping mechanism included working hard to provide for the family and receiving support from parents. Insights shared by teenage fathers presented three emergent themes: focus on study and avoid intimate relationships; practice self-control and seek support from school and government. The five cases were generally similar in their declaration on the lived experiences of Filipino teenage fathers. As regards their coping strategies on the challenges of their experiences, five cases adopted all the approaches. |
