초록
[영문]This study uses postings by divorced fathers to an unmoderatedInternet chat room to sound and analyze their voices. The findingsshow that the posters expressed an acute sense of powerlessnesswith respect to their status as non-residential fathers, the impositionof child support, the mothers of their children, the familycourts, and lawyers and helping professionals. Although mostof their grievances have already been reported in the literatureon non-custodial post-divorce parenting, the anonymous postingsallow us to hear an intensity of feeling that comes throughmuch more faintly in studies based on interviews or focus groups.Since the posters seem to be a particularly aggrieved and angrygroup of men who are unlikely to seek professional counseling,the authors suggest professional intervention via the Internet.The challenges that chat room data poses to research are noted.
