ABSTRACT Women raise children within cultural ideologies that enforce gendered standards for caregiving. In market‐driven societies, working mothers face the ‘intensive mothering ideology’, which demands self‐sacrifice while promoting self‐interest at work. Fathers are primarily framed as breadwinners. We know little about how ethnically and racially diverse, low‐SES construct ideas of good bad parenting. this study, we examined Dominican, African American Mexican US‐based mothers' perspectives on ideal qualities fathers ( N = 193, daughters 51.3%, M Age 26.27). Using semantic latent coding, analysed content framing responses, fell into 28 themes, emphasising idealised parenting providing basic needs, emotional support, education embodying desired traits. Our analyses captured frequencies mentioned by mothers, whether they centered or parents, presence absence performed actions embodied characteristics. findings highlight social constructions fathering offer a foundation future mixed‐methods research.
