DDHK. ORG - There are more and more cases of problem children sticking out at the moment. Finally, there are suicides committed by elementary school children because they are always bullied because they do not have a father.
Not to mention, cases of children with social problems and those in conflict with the law are also increasingly prevalent. In addition to bullying cases where orphans hanged themselves, there are also cases of abuse against friends which have fatal consequences.
Reporting from Republika, teacher at SD Negeri Jetisharjo Sleman, In Yogyakarta, Khoiry Nuria Widyaningrum, reminded the importance of the role of parents in raising children. Khoiry assessed family parenting be an important factor in the formation of a child's character because children spend more time at home than at school.
"The role of the school is actually small, in my opinion, not as big as the role of parents in the family," Khoiry told Republika recently.
Schools can collaborate with families. One of them is by providing parenting education for families. Khoiry admitted that he had proposed this to the Sleman Regency Education Office.
"Parents are invited to continue to present speakers regarding parenting, how to raise children, how parents and schools collaborate to educate children," he added.
According to Khoiry, parenting education for parents has never existed before at his school. In fact, if necessary, the Government makes the program to reduce delinquency and violence among teenagers.
Khoiry said that the main education is in the family. It's just that, maybe the father and mother don't have enough knowledge to be good parents.
"Whether it's a formal scheme or whether it's through the community of PKK mothers or others, parenting education can be inserted," he said.
The benefits obtained from parenting education are adding insight and knowledge of parents in terms of parenting children according to their age, character and development. With the aim of being able to increase the knowledge and skills of parents in terms of parenting.
In the parenting process, parents must first understand about good parenting for their children. This is important so that the parenting process is in accordance with the character, age and development of the child. Therefore, with parenting education, it will certainly make parents understand better how good parenting is. [DDHK News]
