JAKARTA - Ganjar Pranowo's wife, Siti Atikoh, assessed that character science should be added to the school curriculum to increase the adaptation of a child.

He conveyed this when answering Madiun residents' complaints about education, including bullying on Sunday, December 17.

Initially, the wife of presidential candidate number three reminded her family to become the first educator of a child. Atikoh at that time reminded the importance of learning about adab.

The first madrasah is at home. And in our educating children, if I personally think, adab is higher than knowledge. If the adaptation is not instilled from childhood, our children will not have a clear direction, "said Siti Atikoh as quoted on Monday, December 18.

After being taught by the family, it's the turn of formal education to be studied in schools. If knowledge can be done slowly. For example, when it's remedial (subsequent test, ed) it can still be done tomorrow, but there is no relief. When the morals are not appropriate, it will be very difficult, "he said.

"So hopefully the first is in family level education. Through parenting, for example related activities," continued Siti Atikoh.

Furthermore, it is better to add character science in the curriculum in schools to strengthen the adaptation of a child. However, what he conveyed was Atikoh's personal opinion as a parent.

Atikoh said that this character's cultivation is important because parents should not be satisfied when their children get good grades. In fact, there are more important things such as strong morals and etiquette and characterization in a person's personality.

"So now it's as if the main goal when school is the value of ten, ten, ten. When the report is like that, parents are calm, my son is already successful. He will be able to find any school, any university that is good," he said.

"But what is more important as a moral foundation is not an emphasis," concluded Atikoh.
