Parents' Role- The First Educators & Resposibilities

Thanks for your comment , Kak Yati. I understand what you’re saying.

Actually , I have more opinion about parents’ role that can solve the problem. As what we know before , parents are good example for their children. They are also the first educators. Parents have to teach their children about religious belief , morals and values at home. Children are being taught honesty or how to deal with other children and adults. They should be taught how to respect others and how to treat other people, especially members of the opposite sex. They should be taught how to love, honor, and obey their parents or teachers. In short, parents are not doing a dang thing to educate their children. A person's word means nothing if parents didn’t play their role. These are just some of the issues parents expect teachers to handle when they, as parents, fall short of their own responsibility. Parents must take responsibility on it and do the right thing teaching children moral values and religious belief.

Furthermore , parents’ role is to pay attention to their children. Nowadays parents who are always working and too busy to pay attention to what is happening in their own home. Usually these teenagers turn to drinking and drugs and have parties in their fancy homes while their parents are out working. It is scary to think of what my generation faces and what the generation of my children will be like years from now. Teenage pregnancy will be reduced if parents spent more time with their children. Parents must take care their children. For example, do hobbies or recreation with the whole family members. Parents must knows who their childrens’ friends, where they go and what they did. Beside that, encouragement from parents are very important . Such as being there when they need us.

See you again. I will continue my view about how peer grous' role in solving teenage pregnancy next time.
