Objectives: The purpose of the study was to clarify the relationship between parenting, job related stress and child care using data from working mother’s in Korea and Japan.
Methods: In this study, we conducted a survey of 125 Korean mothers who used childcare facilities in two cities and 170 Japan mothers who used childcare facilities in two cities. The questionnaire sought information about the mother’s age, age of the youngest child, family composition, mother’s occupation, parenting stress, job stress, appropriate parenting behavior and child maltreatment. Based on this survey data, it was tried to reveal the effective paths between parenting stress, job stress, appropriate parenting behavior and child maltreatment in order to provide the rationale for intervention by using SEM.
Results: Child care was statistically significantly affected by parenting stress and job stress for both Korean and Japanese working mother’s.
Conclusions: The results of the research suggest the need to establish work-life balance policies to improve the balanced lives of working mother’s.
