Abstract
Background: The high rate of early marriage, teenage pregnancy, and teenage mothers increases the prevalence of emotional and mental disorders, depression, parenting stress, and child stunting. Parenting coaching is among the effective ways to overcome parenting stress and improve parents' knowledge, skills, and behaviors, thereby avoiding child stunting. However, studies on parenting coaching are not widely conducted, particularly in Indonesia.
Objective: This study aimed to present the current status of parenting stress among teenage mothers and assess whether parenting coaching effectively reduces parenting stress among teenage mothers.
Methods: A quasi-experimental design was used. The participants were randomly selected into two groups: the intervention group receiving parenting coaching intervention and the control group receiving standard education using a leaflet. Data were collected in June 2021 in Takalar Regency, South Sulawesi, Indonesia. Statistical Program for Social Science version 21 (Armonk, NY, USA) was employed for all statistical analyses.
Results: The parenting coaching intervention had a significant effect on parenting stress (p <0.001), with significant positive changes in knowledge, attitude (p <0.001), behavior (p <0.001), self-efficacy (p <0.001), and maternal function (p <0.001). Additionally, a significant difference in the achievement of z-score values was observed between the intervention and control groups based on Body Weight/Age (BW/A) (p <0.001) and Body Length/Age (BL/A) (p <0.001). However, Body Weight/Body Length (BW/BL) did not show a significant difference in the achievement of z-score (p = 0.34) in the third month.
Conclusion: Parenting coaching can reduce parenting stress among teenage mothers and improve their knowledge, attitudes, behavior, self-efficacy, and maternal function; hence, this intervention can be used as a reference in the nursing process to reduce parenting stress and prevent child stunting.
背景：早婚、少女怀孕和少女母亲的高比率增加了情绪和精神障碍、抑郁、养育压力和儿童发育迟缓的发生率。育儿指导是克服育儿压力，改善父母的知识、技能和行为，从而避免儿童发育迟缓的有效方法之一。然而，有关育儿指导的研究并不广泛，尤其是在印度尼西亚：本研究旨在介绍未成年母亲育儿压力的现状，并评估育儿指导是否能有效减轻未成年母亲的育儿压力：方法：采用准实验设计。方法：采用准实验设计，将参与者随机分为两组：干预组接受育儿指导干预，对照组接受标准的传单教育。数据于 2021 年 6 月在印度尼西亚南苏拉威西岛的塔卡拉尔县收集。所有统计分析均采用社会科学统计程序第 21 版（美国纽约州阿蒙克市）：结果：育儿指导干预对第三个月的育儿压力有显著影响（P P P P P P = 0.34）：育儿指导可以减轻未成年母亲的育儿压力，改善她们的知识、态度、行为、自我效能和母性功能；因此，该干预措施可作为护理过程中减轻育儿压力、预防儿童发育迟缓的参考。
