According to educational experts, William Bennett (in Megawangi, 2003), family is the most early and effective place to perform the functions of Health Department, Education, and Welfare. If a family fails to teach honesty, passion, desire to be the best, and basic skills, it will be difficult for other institutions to fix the failures.
It can be concluded that family has an important role for character education of children. If the family fails to make character education for their children, it will be difficult for other institutions outside the family (including schools) to fix it.
The failure of family in forming children’s character will result in the growth of the community which is not characterized. Therefore, every family should have awareness that the character of a nation is depended on the character education of children in the home.
