Abstract
he prevalence of early marriage in Dusun Banjarsari has led many parents to consider it as a solution to prevent norm deviations. However, marriage necessitates physical and mental maturity, both of which are often lacking in adolescents. Unbeknownst to many, the consequences of early marriage extend beyond personal repercussions and have broader societal implications affecting the surrounding community.
The PKM Team recognizes the need to intervene and improve parents^ understanding regarding their roles, parenting, child developmental tasks, and early marriage implications. The training conducted employed diverse methodologies including lectures, simulations, case studies, video presentations, and discussions. Post-training evaluations revealed a noticeable enhancement in participants^ comprehension of parental roles and child developmental responsibilities. However, challenges persisted in understanding various parenting styles.
For future training, it is recommended to incorporate a stronger cultural and social approach, collaborating closely with community leaders, educational institutions, and local authorities. Implementation of these recommendations is anticipated to fortify the program^s efforts in promoting healthy child development and transforming detrimental social norms.
