-- Your children are not yours, they are the sons and daughters of life longing in yourself (Kahlil Gibran).
A Piece Of The Poet poem implies very deep, the kids really born of a mother accompanied by the father. They are on them, but not entirely absolute must follow the will of the parents. Children see life from a different side, have dreams, aspirations and expectations are not always identical with the notion of the father and mother. They yearn for tomorrow are laid out in simple reasoning in accordance with the experience of his life. They still yearn for tomorrow, when today's life can never lead to the situation and better conditions.
Children can be defined as a person aged under 15 years, or as an exception to a person aged under 14 years as covered in article 2.3 of ILO Convention No. 38. While in accordance with the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child, a person is considered a child until the age of 18 years (Code of Conduct H & M). Especially for the Indonesian territory, according to Law No. 20 of 1969, the children expressed as an aged under 15 years (Alatas 2006: 1). In connection with the foregoing hereinafter Rajab (2006: 1) states, medical experts agree that children must have the child's physical condition is still fragile and therefore are obliged to not be bothered by the intervention of the food was "arbitrary" and a heavy workload. The state of the child's body is growing search for form and if growth wants "perfect", then input their food should be "four of five perfectly healthy", and a variety of physical activities should be guarded carefully. Child psychology experts also see, the psychological condition of the child is still unstable. Emotions and thoughts are still far from the "steadiness". In children, the more "talk" is the spontaneous emotional, reactive, impersonation, and hence easily influenced. A child's mind is not able to do the analysis and reflection in order to take action.
Children's actions are childish, funny and adorable, they can quickly imitate a variety of actions, good or bad without the analytical skills to distinguish between wrong and right. While children are born from a family of "welfare" that have been prepared for the birth, growth, development, education and the guarantee of a decent future. These children through the days are funny, beautiful, peaceful, and amazing under the protection of parents who never overbearing. There is no tomorrow has been prepared in hand, she can pursue ideals and become anything. But, really every child get the same luck? Thus the life of the complex as a giant mosaic composed of thousands of pieces of the story.
Let's take to the streets to deal with reality, how many children were trapped in the grim life? In rural life, children are involved directly or indirectly as workers, help their parents in the garden, in the hamlet of sago, fishing, do household tasks and look after his sister who was a child. In the urban environment is not difficult to get children drenched in sweat delivering newspapers, shoeshine, singers, bearers, scavengers, and other blue-collar workers. School which can take toward a better tomorrow is a dream that can no longer be affordable. For some children, the future seems to soon become these days, so they had to work hard to get a sip of a drink and a bite of rice. Without adequate education, so children can not become anything. Tomorrow will never be different from today when they have shed sweat for consumption that can not be postponed.
Let's also take a look, how many children are victims of violence in the family? Marriage is not planned carefully, cause serious problems, especially when children are born, demanding all the protection and responsibility. Parents tend to shed resentment, anger, and disappointment to the children. Thus, children should bear the burden of untold lives, experiencing psychic distress, marginalized or injured as a result of the forced Ruda up until his death. While health care and education become a thing that can never be imagined. How the fate of the children then? I do not know, as well as the properties of water that will always trickle down, then the children will write destiny to live according to their ability and way to go. There are plunged into the world of black, some are able to get out of a chain of problems, reasonable life in the middle of public life, even achieving success.
The lives of children appeared in various stories that differ from each other. However, no matter how the story is very diverse, the origin of the story remains the same, namely family life. Solid family will have a guarantee of raising a child, so the child would be able to draw a dream of in accordance with ideals without the intervention of both parents. Fragile family will bear children too fragile, growing unsecured adequate physical and mental will lead being of the child toward a day that ends in "somehow". Preparing for marriage as carefully as possible is an effort to build a solid bastion of protection for the growth and development of children, so that someday they would be able to people are responsible for ourselves, others, and the Creator.
