Abstract
Introduction:. When a newborn with prematurity, illness, or congenital disease is born or he/she needs medical care or dies, it can be unexpected and exhausting situation for parents especially for fathers. This study compares the Father– Newborn Bonding in hospitalized and non-hospitalized newborns. Method: This study is a comparative descriptive study. Of the 148 fathers refer to 29 Bahman hospital, 85 fathers participated in this study that were divided into two groups (48 of them whose newborn was hospitalized and 37 of them whose newborn was non-hospitalized). The tools of study were demographic and Father- Newborn Bonding questionnaires. Finding: There was no significant difference in Father-Newborn Bonding scores in hospitalized and non-hospitalized groups (p=0.02). In non-hospitalized group the results showed direct relationship between father age and pleasure in interaction (p=0.02). Conclusion: Although the initial parent-newborn relations in first days of newborn life is essential for mental health and social relations in the future, but based on finding of this study , “hospitalization” is not effective factor on Father- Newborn Bonding scores.

Abstract
Introduction : Attitudes have an essential influence in the shaping behaviors. Parents' attitudes toward behavior with their children are determinative factor in their behavior with children. This study was conducted to determine the fathers' attitude toward child abuse.
Methods: In this cross - sectional study data were collected using a two-part questionnaire from January to March 2014. Participants were 123 fathers referred to 13 Tabriz health centers and had children aged 2 to 12.
Results: One Sample T Test showed that the mean score of the total attitude toward child abuse was significantly higher than the middle (p<0.001). Anova showed that the mean score of the total attitude was significantly associated with fathers' economic status (P<0.05).Also mean score of the attitude toward neglect was significantly associated with fathers' education level (P<0.05).
Conclusion: Results showed that fathers disagreed with child abuse yet considering the relationship between fathers' attitudes toward child abuse with their education level and economic status, fathers who their education levels and income are low, are prone to child abuse Therefore, paying attention to the livelihood situation of the families and providing education and training for individuals is essential for reducing child abuse.

Abstract
Introduction: Stress and anxiety in the parents and caregivers can prevent the mother from adapting to the hospital environment and supporting her child. In fact, any disturbance in the behavior of parents, including the mother, can have a negative effect on their child's sleep. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of using video call intervention on improving family-centered care and its effect on maternal stress and subsequent child sleep.
Method: In this clinical trial, 40 parents with hospitalized children were selected and randomly assigned to the control and intervention groups. For the fathers in the intervention group, a supportive training program included teaching parental plans and methods of child and mother support to fathers during the illness, as well as part of the program included the role of counseling and support of the nurse, which was done virtually. After performing the training virtually and visually, the father established a video communication with the child and his mother online as the primary caregiver. Data collection tools were a demographic information questionnaire, Stress Response Inventory, and Brief Infant Sleep Questionnaire-Revised, which was completed by the mother before and 7 days after the intervention.
Results: The mean changes in mothers' stress scores and children's sleep showed a statistically significant difference between the intervention and control groups using an independent t-test (P <0.05). There was also a significant relationship between mothers' stress scores and children's sleep (P <0.05).
Conclusions: Planning and maintaining family unity during the COVID-19 pandemic and educating and supporting fathers, including the supportive role of spouses by reducing mothers' stress, can also affect the sleep of hospitalized children with pneumonia.
