Abstract
The use of internet technology allows parents and children activities to be higher and more diverse. From the family aspect, this condition allows changes in the parents’ roles in educating their children. Furthermore, when it is viewed from the children aspect, it is possible to change the meaning of social values by the generation Z. Based on this phenomenon, there are two important issues that need to be studied. First, this research aims to reveal the parents’ roles in building characters of socio-cultural values to Generation Z. Second, it aims to reveal the meaning of socio-cultural values by Generation Z. The research used a qualitative approach with the Habitus theory initiated by Bourdieu as the data analysis technique. The research findings showed that the parents’ roles in building socio-cultural character can be divided into two categories. The first category is families that always provide parental accompaniment to their children and the second category is families that barely provide parental accompaniment to their children. Furthermore, based on the meaning of socio-cultural values, the social interaction value was interpreted as a communication with other people that does not have social implications. The other interpreted social interaction as a communication between two or more people with social implications. The value of solidarity was interpreted as a form of concern for others, while lifestyle was interpreted as a form of appearance that has no social implications and others considered it to have social implications. The value of tolerance was interpreted as the behavior of respecting differences.
Highlights
Generation Z grows and develops along with the flow of globalization, so that there are challenges in shaping the mental and character of the millineal generation.The problem that often arises due to globalization is there are new values and cultures which in turn can weaken the values and culture of our nation.Every individual in Indonesian family is currently facing a conflict between Das Sein and Das Sollen in understanding national cultural values which will result in weakening individual resilience as a strongholdin facing global cultural values, (Djahiri, 2006)
Has an important role for generation Z to have a positive character.This is because society is the second social environment after family for an individual since he is born into the world
The findings indicate that the informants' knowledge about social interaction, social solidarity, lifestyle and tolerance can be divided into two groups
Summary
Generation Z grows and develops along with the flow of globalization, so that there are challenges in shaping the mental and character of the millineal generation.The problem that often arises due to globalization is there are new values and cultures which in turn can weaken the values and culture of our nation.Every individual in Indonesian family is currently facing a conflict between Das Sein (what happens or reality) and Das Sollen (what should happen or what is expected) in understanding national cultural values which will result in weakening individual resilience as a strongholdin facing global cultural values, (Djahiri, 2006). The communication pattern of generation Z is very open compared to previous generations.The fanatical use of social media and the lifestyle are very influenced by technological developments, they are more open to political and economic views, so that the adolescents of generation Zlook very reactive to environmental changes that occur around them, theyhave more attention to wealth It means that an individual will be a good person if the community environment is good and vice versa. Generation Z, as a generation that directly faces the phenomenon of globalization or modernization, has its own challenges and moral identity, which are cumulatively inherent in them
