The purpose of this study is to clarify the tendency of the actual situation of mental and physical symptoms "Paternity Blues" (1987, Pruett) which happened to fathers with their new born child.We asked three nursery schools for cooperation and carried out the inventory survey by mailing for 29 fathers. The questionnaire was analyzed by using Feelings Scale toward Child (Hanazawa, 1992), ZungSDS (Self-rating Depression Scale) and Self-esteem FeelingsScale (Yamamoto, et al.1982).The analysis carried out t-test and multiple regression analysis. As a result, parents have female pay attention to their child more than parents having a male child. The rate of depression was higher among children who have sibling then a single child in nuclear families. The relationship between the feelings toward child avoidance and the depressed mental state was accepted、but equilateral recurrence was seen in self-esteem feelings and depressed mental state、and reverse was usually shown.Fathers arrested a child affirmatively and was positive without feelings for mental care participation with burden.However the need of the mental care and support systems construction was shown by increase of the child care participation of fathers in future because it was recognized that self-esteem feelings of fathers with slightly depressed mental state were low.
