摘要：Forty fathers were interviewed concerning their perceptions of the balances between paternal involvement in child rearing, commitment to work, career trajectories, and company policies toward father involvement in family matters. The multifaceted and simultaneously synergistic and antagonistic nature of fathering and working was highlighted. Some issues that influenced the complex provisional balances between work and family were micro-policies, macro-factors such as education and income, and fathers' personal cost-benefit analyses. The data refute common misconceptions about fatherhood. Ultimately, it appears that flexible implementation of micro policies at the "local" level is what is needed to help fathers to arrive at positive balances between providing and involvement at home.
