Abstract

The current research was conducted in the form of a qualitative method and a phenomenological approach in order to identify the educational actions of families in facing the economic consequences of Corona. The statistical population of this research consisted of the families of male students of the first secondary school, living in the town of Rabat Targah, Mashhad. The sampling method in this research is non-probability sampling in a targeted manner with maximum diversity or heterogeneity among the target population. The sampling process continued until 10 cases, and after that the researcher saw the theoretical saturation of the data. To analyze the data, the seven-step Claysey method was used. Four Cuban and Lincoln criteria were used to check the validity of the research data. Research findings show that families have responded differently to these consequences. Their actions are generally of three types. Lack of investment in children's education (temporary school dropout) includes the following categories: parents' personal characteristics, financial limitations, lack of facilities. Reducing investment in children's education (continuing education with difficulty) which includes the categories of helping relatives and friends, optimizing the workforce, changing the supervisor's job, saving costs, and investing in children's education without problems (continued) education without problems) which includes the categories of parental awareness and supervision, financing and the existence of sufficient facilities.
