ワンオペ育児
含义: Solo parenting — raising children single-handedly, typically because a partner is absent due to work or other circumstances.
ワンオペ育児 combines ワンオペ (one-person operation, from the restaurant industry where one employee handles an entire shift alone) with 育児 (childcare). It describes the exhausting reality of caring for children alone, usually applied to mothers whose husbands work extremely long hours. The term gained traction as part of a broader social conversation about work-life balance, gender roles, and the strain on Japanese families.
