Adolescent Monkey Bridge

         Nowadays, teenagers have become a monkey malignant disease in the middle of the community, given that the adolescent is a seed holder calyx state government in the future. Worse, many teenagers suspected hoax cases have restless community, such as cases of theft, such as cases of immoral sex free, rape, even murder. By various media practitioners and even the social observer this has a lot of attention and sought red his thread. However, so far as this business is not visible and the goal seemed to only as news in the mass media.
             In fact, such a hoax going on normal adolescent self because at that time they are in transition: the adult children. As thoughts emile Durkheim (in Soerjono Soekanto, 1985: 73), deviant behavior or evil, if in certain limits is considered as a normal social fact. Related to adolescent mischief, in his book titled "Rules of Sociological Method" mentioned that in certain limits is normal because the monkey may not remove completely. Thus, the normal behavior as far as saying this behavior does not cause unrest in society, this behavior occurs in certain limits and views on a deed that is not intentional. However, in contrast with the thought, the fact that of late there is a deliberate hoax adolescents, ie, done with awareness. worry!

The influence of psychological

             Youth, as said above, which is the transition from child to adult, has the potential to do great things deviate from the conditions (read: behavioral) normal. As there is turbulence in themselves to do anything different with the others around him, things that are considered normal by most people. Concur with it, Becker (in Soerjono Soekanto, 198: 86), said that they have the sheer encouragement to do so. Indeed, it is because every human being is basically a certain encouragement to violate the particular situation. Instead, it is considered normal that people can refrain from a stimulus-stimulus to depart. Obviously, such a stimulus that is based on various things, such as the motif to search for sensation, even as the nature of adolescents in the age that are identified through the stage, made from such a figure or idol who deems.
 

Environment, forming Teen Characters

             In addition to the influence of psychology, the environment also have a vital influence in the formation of character is next adolescent will role in the process of socialization as social beings, including the role for a hoax or not. A person can be ugly or bad because of living in a bad environment (Eitzen, 1986:10). More criticized, such a condition allows someone (read: teenagers) to detour because the environment has experienced social disorganization, so that the values and norms that have been obsolete or apply as if the live / as a symbol. In other words, sanctions that are already as if 'no' more valid.

Adolescent such that by Kartini Kartono (1988: 93) referred to as children with disabilities or social disabilities are actually experiencing mental demoralization or gradation moral degeneration. In addition to the above social conditions, family situation was very determined, especially the education of parents as an effort to character formation (character building) children.

As evidence, Masngudin HMS, in a research about the relationship between the attitudes of parents in their child's education to the level of naughtiness in Pondok Pinang, Jakarta, said that one of the monkey is in the attitude of parents educate their children. From 30 correspondents, they are authoritarian parents of 5 respondents (16.6%), overprotection 3 of respondents (10%), less attention to 12 respondents (40%), and not at all 10 respondents (33.4%). Data from all respondents whose parents did not pay attention at all to do mischief, and special attention to the missing 11 of 12 respondents do special wickedness.

Associated with the formation of character, research that is enough proof of vitality into family education. Families with repressive (always give punishment) and the authoritarian nature will tend to form a hard time on their children so that more potential for 'aggressive', or vice versa for those who are not psychic strong forms of discipline on the parents will make the nature of 'soft' or weak. This is different from the form of prefentif or giving advice and praise, even the provision of opportunities for youth to express ideas. They will tend to be private can appreciate other people, and different behavior from a more distant form of diversion.

An interesting any posts, Samuel Smiles (1887) notes in his book Life and Labor: planting a thought, and you will reap the action. Of action is, and you will reap a habit. Embed a habit, and you will reach the characters. Embed a character and you reap a goal. Go from the wise words, character is a capital initial results from the interaction a person, including youth, to achieve a life filled with tranquility soon. Unfortunately, the establishment has not yet been fully implemented in a number of families, seen from the process of education that seemed to spoil the child, even the sybaritic educational progress by the time of (read: globalization).

 Yes, the teenage characters and ultimately the various cases of mischief is not far from globalization, especially in the areas of technology, and westernisasi (be Western culture). The other, as already announced a variety of media, cases of smack down that have had high ratings in the television impressions of Indonesia has taken a distinctive position among the children / adolescents. They necessarily practice with the scenes such as these that ultimately make a form of youth crime.

In addition, a variety of pornographic scenes on television from the light-weight case has become a form of educational values that should not be done on teenagers. They actually require Feed nutrients such as educating the spectacle that reflects the human intellectual, intellectual, or academic, has been in poison with various scenes of the girls even more sexual / severe. Such shooting is apparently very soft character building where each child / adolescent.

Permanent secretary in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Singapore, Kishore Mahbubani (in John Naisbitt in his book titled "Megatrends Asia)," ask the West for not more "lecture-to-i" Asian people do not because the West has the moral qualifications (moral standing) to tell other people what to do. He assumes that the West has been distracted. This should be basic so that people no longer worship in the West as the standard association (especially for adolescents). And can not be denied that the actual culture is a culture that many in the West by influence in the case of a very poor actual load values orient. Which is less load value decency and ethics.

In response to the polemic, there must be serious and continuous handling by the various elements of society. First, parents should always develop a character (character building) children, namely to build a child lives with the character / nature of the values of goodness. Important role in educating the family values of children since parents must be made early can be a maestro of the fruit not falling far from the tree. In short, parents should also have good also. that can be used as a precedent by children. Remember the piece goes,

Second, now that school is like a second home for children should be able to create a school culture that are relevant to the psychological development of adolescents: the culture of positive character formation. For example, non-violence education, and many students avoid cheating on such cultural mencontek who also is one of the stages of adolescent mischief light. Award for student achievement is very necessary for fighting the ethics, such as thanks or giving praise, and learning the responsibilities of such apologize by both students and teachers when making a mistake. By Japan and this has grown in a long time on the students.

In addition, educational ethics / morality is effort must remain theoretical. Pancasila education / citizenship and religion with moral values at this time seemed to be abandoned because a number of start many more interested students to learn and develop the exact sciences or social. This is the task of the teacher or the curriculum to make subjects more interesting to students in the eye and the soul can be a healing herb in the formation of character.

 Finally, with all parties, including the government in the case of adolescents and the hoax of various policies, I hope the monkey does not become a teenager, just a monkey on a normal teenage self in 'enjoy' his adolescence as a philosopher, Kahlil Gibran said that any child - children have their own generation and the world. Hopefully the young people grow into adolescents Indonesia that is able to dedicate the triumph of good character with a name so that Indonesia is also broadcasted to the world.
