This study is motivated by Indonesia's ranking as the third most fatherless country
in the world according to data from Narasi. The absence of a father in a child's life can shape
their self-concept, particularly in girls, and interpersonal communication plays a crucial role in
the process of social adjustment. This study aims to investigate how interpersonal
communication between fathers and daughters occurs, to understand the self-concept of girls
experiencing fatherlessness, and to identify the factors of interpersonal communication in
shaping the self-concept of girls experiencing fatherlessness. The research method used in this
study is descriptive qualitative, employing observation, in-depth interviews, and
documentation. The results of the study indicate that the self-concept of girls in fatherless
conditions can be shaped by effective patterns of interpersonal communication. Daughters who
lack effective interpersonal communication with their fathers tend to have negative self
concepts, but this can be minimized through adequate social support, such as daughters who
receive support from family, friends, or an environment that can help develop a more optimal
self-concept, even if the father's role is not fully fulfilled.
