The seminar was attended The Dean of Fisipol, Wiwik Sri Utami in his remarks said, this activity was important for students to understand about marriage from an early age.
Not to encourage students to get married early, but to increase awareness about the world of marriage. Marriage is a long journey, because it must be well understood, and prepared carefully.
Marriage changes the status of teenagers or young people into husband or wife, then becomes the father or mother of her children. The status is not a symbol, but the responsibility that shapes and determines the identity and future of his child.
He added, every child born was determined by whom his father was, and who his mother was. "Because of that there is a term, your fate depends on your mother, your nasab depends on your father," said the lecturer born in Kediri.
"Teenagers who begin to reach adulthood need to be equipped with an understanding of the family, especially about the role of a father. When men understand their responsibilities, they will become fathers who are able to give good examples.
This activity is part of the socialization of the Indonesian Father's Exemplary Movement (Gati), a movement that puts the importance of the importance of the role of the father in the formation of children's character and family resilience.
Some students voluntarily tell the story of the father's figure in their lives. Some of them are unable to hide emotions, tell how the presence or even the absence of father figures form their way of life and perspective. As many as 33% of Indonesian teenagers experience mental health problems, but only 4.3% of parents are able to recognize these conditions.
He also highlighted the phenomenon Fatherless , which is the condition when children grow without the real role of the father in their lives. This data must be taken into consideration for adolescents and young people now to be mature in planning a wedding. "This socialization is an encouragement for me to return to remember the role of my father, sacrifice, and affection that I may not yet be fully aware of," he said.
This seminar was coupled with the signing of the MoU of cooperation between the Dean of FISIPOL, S-1 Coordinator of Social Sciences Education and the Head of East Java BKKBN Representative. This collaboration is a strategic step in equipping young people with family values, marriage readiness, and about family resilience. [*]
