Purpose: This study aims to explore mothers¡¯ experiences of anger while raising a child in South Korea based on a qualitative descriptive approach.
Methods: A total of ten mothers of children aged 1-3 years participated in the study. In-depth individual interviews were conducted from August to September 2019 to collect data, which were then subjected to thematic analysis.
Results: A total of 4 main themes and 10 subthemes were identified. The 4 themes were ¡°individual and environmental factors that influence anger,¡± ¡°a vicious cycle of anger expression and guilt,¡± ¡°being a little bit more mature as a mother,¡± and ¡°need for anger management.¡± This study described various causes, ways of expressing, and effects of anger, as well as the mother¡¯s coping strategies. These experiences were viewed as milestones along the journey to becoming a real parent and helped mothers develop empathy for other children and mothers. The participants expressed support for expanding the social support system for child-rearing and providing psychological programs for mothers.
Conclusion: Mothers of children aged 1-3 years experienced anger owing to various factors, but adapted by developing coping skills. This study recommends family-based support interventions to help mothers manage their emotions and parenting roles.
