JAKARTA - Psychologist from the Tangerang City Family Learning Center (Puspaga) Glori Telis Amanta said that there are still many parents who feel taboo or confused to discuss issues about sexuality to their children, although this is important as education.
"In fact, with proper education from an early age, children will have the knowledge and courage to protect themselves from various risks, such as sexual violence and promiscuity," Glori said as quoted by ANTARA.
He explained that parents must communicate openly with teenagers about friendship, physical boundaries, and healthy and responsible sexual education.
"This is very important in accompanying children to face challenging adolescents," he said.
In the paring class event, Glori also provided the right understanding to parents about the importance of open communication. Participants are also given a family education module that can be used as a guide at home.
Tangerang City DP3AP2KB Head Tihar Sopian appreciated the enthusiasm of the community and emphasized the importance of the role of the family as the first and foremost protector of children.
"We want Tangerang City to be a child-friendly city, and it starts at home. Character education and moral values need to be instilled from an early age, and one of them is through a healthy relationship between children and parents," said Tihar.
Through this activity, the Tangerang City Government hopes to encourage the creation of an open, supportive, and ready to become a partner for children's growth and development in the face of the dynamics of teenagers' lives.
