Daniel Mananta Shares Strategies to Protect Children from the Negative Impact of Media with Cahaya Bagi Negeri
Jawaban
How can parents respond to the challenges in this digital era? The program 'Cahaya Bagi Negeri' features presenter and entrepreneur Daniel Mananta and shares effective strategies to protect children from the negative impacts of digital media.
As a father of two, Daniel shared two key strategies in equipping children against the adverse effects of digital media: being a provider and a protector.
As a provider, Daniel ensures his children grow up with strong spiritual values. From the very young age, his children have been involved in family devotions, reflecting on God's Word, and reading Bible verses. 'We try to do devotions every morning,' he says.
Daniel's role as protector is also applied to protect his children from harm and overwhelming information. He ensures his children are not exposed to sources that could disrupt their spiritual and mental well-being. 'Protection is not just from bad people but also from constant streams of information,' Daniel adds.
He believes that nothing is more important than the presence of parents in a child's life. When children receive love, acceptance, and spiritual support at home, they feel safe to open and understand their identity in God. 'Our role as parents is to ensure that children have security in God.'
