Smart Parenting: Penguatan Peran Orangtua Mencegah Bullying di SDN Sidowayah 2

Abstract

Child bullying remains a problem that requires collective attention, not only from schools but also from families. Parents play a crucial role in recognizing changes in children's behavior, establishing open communication, and providing support when children face problems in social and digital environments. Based on this situation, this community service activity was implemented through the Smart Parenting program with the theme "Stop Bullying, Let's Caring" at SDN Sidowayah 2 on August 27, 2026. This activity aimed to strengthen parents' understanding and role in recognizing, preventing, and responding to bullying in children. The activity was implemented through material delivery, discussions, and observation and documentation during the activity. The material provided covered the forms of bullying, their impact on children, the importance of positive communication within the family, and guidance on the use of digital media. The results of the activity indicate that the Smart Parenting program can be an educational platform for parents to understand that bullying is not only physical but can also occur verbally, socially, and digitally. This activity also emphasized the importance of two-way communication between parents and children and collaboration between families and schools in bullying prevention efforts. Thus, Smart Parenting can be a form of education that supports the creation of a safer family and school environment for children.
