Parents’ understanding and interpretation of the website
Intervention enabled the recognition of family system impacts “I thought it was very helpful to give us a common language to help sort of reflect together and to discuss things together – like it made me feel more connected to [my husband] emotionally and about this process, in a way, about this process because we are better…not that we haven’t talked about it and haven’t felt connected before about it, but we were able to, kind of, reflect together in a way because we had this common language that was given to us to talk about it.” (Caucasian mother, Think Aloud)
Intervention allowed for connection with other families “…if it is just one spouse, like if it’s the wife doing it, getting to see some fathers talk [in the MFVDG] and vice versa. So the fathers getting to see the mothers talk can help them understand what their spouse is going though; if they’re not able to talk about it to each other.” (Caucasian father, Beta Test)
Design and use of the website
Reflections on the design and personal preferences “Okay. One of these graphics probably should have somebody looking like one of our kids [without hair]…yeah. Some people are really sensitive to that.” (Caucasian father, Think Aloud)
Issues of practicality/usability “…so I like that check mark. So true. That’s very good. So that’s nice. Now, I know that I didn’t skip. Otherwise I wouldn’t know…” (Southeast Asian mother, Think Aloud)
General Satisfaction with the intervention “I’m so thankful that you guys came across me because, like I said, beginning I felt like I ain’t have nobody and I didn’t have this option. So in order to do it, I mean, since I got the chance to do it, I’m so thankful and I love it and always tell people about it. It was very, very helpful to me.” (African American mother, Beta Test)
Feedback regarding telehealth “I liked that part but I didn’t like that you had to go into the email to get it, to get the link and then…maybe if it can ring from the app.” (African American mother, Beta Test)
“it was weird to do heavy content through a screen.” (Caucasian mother, Beta Test)
