Socialization and counseling to high school students of the same level is important so that they understand more about the importance of taking care of themselves, so that they are not drawn into free sex, pregnancy out of wedlock and marriage at an immature age.
He said based on survey results from several parties, early marriage is more prone to divorce and can be one of the causes of malnutrition in infants and stunting.
"We are helping to prevent this case from increasing and we will continue to encourage the younger generation to have broader insights, so they are able to develop the potential that exists within each of them," he said.
Parents are expected to always pay attention to their children and be flexible in continuing their education to a higher level and practicing religious values in everyday life.
In addition to educational activities at schools, the Regional Office of the Ministry of Religion also put up a number of bulletin boards in strategic places and the Religious Affairs Office (KUA) related to socialization on the prevention of early marriage and unregistered marriages.
"This is a form of our commitment to implement the Marriage Law and the agreement with the Governor of Babylon in preventing early marriage and unregistered marriage," he emphasized.
