Thirteen mothers of "hikikomori" children wereinterviewed at the Clinical Psychology Counseling Service established in theUniversity of Tokushima .The thirteen cases divided into four groups . Type 1 :"Hikikomori" causedby hating school during teenage years, Type 2 :"Hikikomori" caused bystudent apathy,Type 3 :"Hikikomori" caused by frustration with work andType4 :" Hikikomori" caused by other reasons.Results of the data analysis by the KJ method show that parents considergood attitudes to include getting support from specialists, accepting"Hikikomori" completely,encouraging "Hikikomori" to be active (for instanceby giving them allowances) and showing gratitude for help offered by"Hikikomori". Patients consider bad attitudes to include ignoring theopinions of"Hikikomori", getting angry, forcing "Hikikomori" into actionand the self-righteous nurture manner for children.Accordingly this study, the recommendable attitude of patents toward"Hikikomori" is showed to a certain extent.
