Tips for Educating Modern Children, Here I Will Discuss in Full

In the past there was a term kids zaman now, have you ever heard of that term? Surely you have. Well, if there is a term kids zaman now, are there parents zaman old, aka old-school parents now? Well, if there are, how do we deal with it, and what should we do? So actually, should parents get closer to their children, or should children adapt to their parents, which one is correct?

Therefore, today I will discuss.
So it's like this, we and our children are like two living creatures, from different centuries, living in one house. And children will find it difficult to respect their parents, because today's children are smarter than their parents.

For example, when we were little, our father took us to the market. Our father said, "Son, don't be too far from me, or you'll get lost." Well, now, for example, if you and your father go to Jakarta, don't be too far from your children, or you'll get lost.

I used to have a toy, then my toy broke, I brought the toy to my father, "Dad, my toy is broken".

Then my father fixed it,

"Wow.... Dad is great! I admire my father."

Now mothers have problems, fathers have problems, with their gadgets, looking for their children, it's the opposite now. It's not the child who is lost, now it's the parents who are lost. So today's children are smarter, more multitasking. They can listen to lectures for example, while playing gadgets, the lecture is assessed, the score is 90, mothers listen, don't understand either.

So, people in the past could do one thing, for one purpose. Here's another example, for example, the father is 50 years old, born in Medan, has children, their ages are between 7-8 years old, then there is a conversation, "Pa, let's drink there, at the cafe there"?

Then you say, "Where is that"?

Your child replies, "That's over there! Ahh,,, you don't understand".

Then while traveling around the city of Medan, on the way there is another conversation, "Dad is holding the steering wheel, then the child says, if I say left-left, you have to turn left, I say right-right, you turn right, you arrive".

That's the children of today, aged 7-8 years, already know about this city, compared to those who lived here for 50 years, because the old school ones don't believe in Google Maps. Because our parents can't use it, so Google says 100 meters turn right, they are confused, this one, what's that one? Which one is 100 meters, they don't know which button to press. They should follow the dark blue one.. Old people didn't understand, why? Maybe because they were short-sighted. That's why the old people don't believe in Google.

So you agree, this is what's happening in our environment lately. There is something called the lost generation, then because there is silence, there is distance. Okay, because there is a 15 year difference, it's a different generation, now how do we deal with this generation. The first is, the need for a solution for relationships in the heart, but what I'm saying today is, spiritual bonding, spiritual ties.

For example, people are from different tribes, different countries, different nations. If one religion feels close, how strong is the bond of religion. Therefore, if parents educate their children, the most important thing should be to introduce God, so that one family has the same God.

In that true bond, there will be a family misbah, the whole family prays together, this is the basis. For example, later the child is suspected of watching pornography, then we say "Son, don't watch that, because it's a sin". Without the foundation of knowing God, the child says "What is sin"? Abstract, why?

Because like this, if you know what is called a banner paper, that's research all over the world, on teenagers under 12 years old, the results are good. because they think practically, and provide solutions, what's even better is that they are tolerant, but why tolerance? It turns out there are roots, 63% of 12 years and under, the current generation, they do not obey God, and ignore HIS commands, maybe because of a lack of understanding of religion. That's why parents need to teach religion to their children so that there is a foundation of understanding from an early age.

But if their children don't know God, that's today's children, 63%. Even though they believe, they don't follow HIS commands. then it becomes tolerance, because religious rules, and religious laws are not necessary for him. For him, what is important is loving each other's men, with men it doesn't matter to him.

That is the result of this, so this is the condition found in the study. Therefore, we need all parents, need to be aware, to teach the values ​​of life to their children, from an early age, from childhood. So the conclusion is:

This era is unavoidable, changing very quickly, because the current generation, it cannot be avoided, but it can be worked around, by building heart relationships.

Because this heart relationship allows us, to pass on our life values, from generation to generation. But relationships are only formed if there is interaction, and one thing that is certain is time. So provide time for children, provide your heart for children, nothing is easy, but it can be done.

---

Once we want to do it, fix it, sometimes it takes years, but investing in children's time, for the family, is not in vain.

When relationships are formed, that's when we can pass on values, to our children, and children who have values. I'm sure they inherit the country, rule the country, they will have achievements, have achievements that exceed the average.

Okay, the era is different, but don't make that a reason for families to break up. And here are my 3 inspirational messages today:

First, Parents must open themselves up, reduce their ego, and learn again, update and adapt.

Second, Today's children must also be humble, no matter how cool you are, remember that parents must still be appreciated, must be respected.

And third, Whether it's the present era or the past, all the principles remain the same. Build communication, build relationships, and live it with love. That way parents and children can still synergize. Okay👌

Hopefully useful.

Greetings always compact.
