According to him, week of parenting as an educational effort to build understanding between teachers and guardians of students in child care patterns, because with these similarities it can mitigate various potential bullying. "For example, in his family, he often gets friends, finally the child at school likes to insult also to his friends. This must also be changed. Likewise the teachers, do not neglect. If there is a tendency to bullying, immediately seek the root of the problem. Contact his family," said Ipuk. He emphasized that the Banyuwangi Regency Government has a full commitment to fighting bullying, physical and sexual violence, as well as intolerance. "The bullying that has surfaced in the last few days should be a lesson for all of us. Let's not be repeated. We should no longer be indifferent to the problems experienced by our children," he said. Head of the Banyuwangi Regency Education Office, Surtno said that this parenting week will begin to be held in March 2023.
