1. Criteria for Unruly Children Who Could Be Sent to Military Barracks
A recent trend among several regional leaders involves sending unruly children to military barracks for disciplinary training. This policy has been adopted by figures such as West Java Governor Dedi Mulyadi, Cianjur Regent Mohamad Wahyu Ferdian, Purwakarta Regent Saepul Bahri Binzein, and Singkawang Mayor Tjhai Chui Mie.
However, clinical child and adolescent psychologist Mira Damayanti Amir cautions that military education alone cannot resolve the issue of misbehaving children. She argues that juvenile delinquency needs to be understood and addressed in a comprehensive manner. While military training might instill discipline, Mira assesses that it does not guarantee a solution to the root causes of the behavior.
