Warsito said these four aspects must be the concern of all parties in order to support children’s character education.
“Even the aspects of the virtual world or digital world need more attention considering that children currently spend a lot of time accessing the internet and have easy access to various information in cyberspace,” he said.
Warsito added, the role of teachers and parents is also an important aspect to support the formation of children’s character so that they grow into individuals who have noble character.
“Teachers, parents, and families to community leaders are very important to work together to care about the formation of children’s character,” he said.
