Abstract


Keterbatasan-keterbatasan yang dialami anak dengan gangguan spektrum autis dapat menimbulkan berbagai kesulitan hingga dibutuhkan ketangguhan ibu dalam menjalankan pengasuhan. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk mengkaji pengalaman ibu hingga menjadi sosok yang tangguh selama mengasuh anak autis. Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan fenomenologi dan melibatkan lima orang responden penelitian. Hasil penelitian menemukan enam tema pengalaman ibu yang menjadikan mereka tangguh dalam mengasuh anak dengan gangguan spektrum autis, yaitu: 1) kondisi sulit, menekan, dan bertahan; 2) dukungan sosial; 3) pengetahuan dan informasi terkait anak dengan gangguan spektrum autis; 4) religius coping; 5) kebermaknaan hidup orang tua anak dengan anak berkebutuhan khusus; 6) optimisme. Sumber daya penentu berasal baik dari internal yaitu kemampuan mengontrol diri, keyakinan akan kemampuan diri, dan religious coping, maupun eksternal yaitu dukungan sosial, merupakan faktor utama yang memengaruhi ibu untuk tetap bertahan dalam mengasuh anak.
