JAKARTA - The Bantul Regency Government has asked parents to anticipate children's delinquency such as brawls. Parents are asked to supervise children when they leave the house until late at night.
"Regarding child delinquency, we have coordinated with each school principal so that we can coordinate with parents to always supervise our children," said Head of the Bantul Secondary Education Center (Dikmen) Ismunardi in Bantul, Thursday, April 7, quoted from Antara.
This step was taken following a number of street crime incidents in Bantul and Yogyakarta involving children or high school students, including brawls between groups of teenagers which were thwarted by the local resort police.
He said communication and coordination were also carried out with the police, to jointly address this issue that is now a concern, with police patrols at night to prevent child delinquency and events that are troubling to the community.
"We always coordinate closely with parents through class associations, homeroom teachers and parents. We hope that children can be controlled by social interactions, children outside of school hours should be jointly controlled, not only at school, but also by the community and other people. old," he said.
Meanwhile, Head of the Bantul Education, Youth and Sports Agency (Dikpora), Isdarmoko, admitted that he was concerned about the brawls involving school children in Bantul, especially since the activities which were considered disturbing to the community were carried out to coincide with the month of Ramadan 1443 Hijriah.
"I am from the Bantul Education and Youth Office, at first I was concerned about the incident, because the month of Ramadan, which should be filled with worship activities to increase faith and piety, even before dawn, is so ridiculous," he said.
He said, especially for third grade junior high school students, next week they will face school exams, next after Lebaran 2022 there will be ASPD (assessment for regional education standardization), so what is being done is very contradictory to what must be prepared for activities at school.
"These two things are our concerns. So I really support the firm steps by the police, because we must carry out measures in a measured, fair and wise manner because this is very troubling," he said.
He also hopes that the junior and senior high school students involved in the brawl will realize the actions that are troubling the community, and change with positive activities that can hone intelligence, even leadership, because students are the young generation who will receive the relay of leadership of the nation and state.
He also asked parents to bring this incident to their attention, and jointly take precautions. He also does not blame anyone, but this is a shared responsibility.
"Our service is responsible, but parents also have to be responsible because this incident was early in the morning, parents should be 'opyak' why the child is not at home, where did he go. I hope from this incident there will be a tighter synergy, even better in the future so that We can handle it together," he concluded.
