Community Service Through Family Parenting Socialization to Increase Children's Learning Motivation in Karangtumaritis Village

Socialization is one of the means that greatly influences a person's personality. Socialization is also commonly referred to as role theory. Because in the process of socialization, the roles that must be played by each individual are taught. Parenting or the process of educating children today (parenting patterns) is very important, therefore parenting must be instilled early on by some parents to their children. Because after all, this parenting pattern has a very important role for children and for the future of children. Parenting itself means the way or pattern of parenting parents to their children to shape the personality of the child, and at the same time to know the interests and talents of children as early as possible so that parents can adjust to the level of education that suits their child's wishes. Good parenting is one powerful way to find out a child's character. This activity is one of the devotion of knowledge that I can do in the series of KKN PPM processes.
