Need to balance the left and right brain

Communities often assess IQ (intelligence quotient) is equated with intelligence or skill. In fact, IQ only measures a fraction of the skill.

"It was a bright child is a child who can react in a logical and useful to what is experienced in the neighborhood," said Eileen Rachman, a psychologist who is also Director of EXPERD, a human resources consultant at the seminar 10 Ways to Sharpen IQ and EQ (emotional quotient) Child Saturday (27 / 8) in Jakarta. At the same seminar also launched a book entitled Optimizing Intelligence Child.

Eileen explained that IQ is a number that is used to describe the thinking person's capacity as compared with the average of others. In general, the average IQ was 100.

"IQ is only used among others, imagined space, see the environment around coherently and find the relationship between one form and other forms. But IQ does not measure creativity, social skills, and wisdom, "he said.

Meanwhile, the intelligence of children seen from the understanding and awareness of what they experienced. Later on in his mind, the experience was transformed into words or numbers. Therefore, Eileen emphasizes the importance of understanding. "Because understanding is a combination of efforts to increase the input through the senses and the knowledge they have," explained Eileen.

How to optimize your child's intelligence? Eileen suggested that parents enhance learning, reading, and repeat. For example, to introduce how to read, the mother helps the child by making a line under words that are important, ask your child to read aloud and explain the meaning of reading.

In addition, parents are also introducing the strategy, making rational decisions, sparked the idea of surfing as possible, midmapping, increase vocabulary, thinking as he imagined, humor, critical thinking, and play. The goal to balance the left and right brain work, because the structure of the left and right brain hemispheres have different tasks.

Why need to balance the left and right brain work? Eileen said that the child can read fluently with full comprehension, creative writing, spelling, remembering, listening, thinking while at the same or become the champion in a particular sport. All it takes left and right brain coordination with both well trained.

But to balance the left and right brain work can also be through customs. Explains Eileen, for example, by enjoying the music and the arts, enjoying color, space and shape, value creativity and appreciate the sentiment.

Meanwhile, Dr. Andre Meaza said that during early childhood is the golden period to perform an active process through the process of sensory stimulation for the purpose of forming wiring system. "Stages of early life stages of the child are important because children are able to receive skills and teaching as a basis of knowledge and thought processes."

Andrew also explained, half the child's intellectual development took place prior to entering the age of 4 years. Precisely 17 years of age cognitive development is a cumulative development of the child is born.

According to Andre, 0-4 year olds have the cognitive development of 50%, 30% 4-8 years and 9-17 years at 20%. "It's brain development before age 1 year early, but the maturation of the brain take place after the child is born," he said.

He warned that the influence of early environment on brain development will impact long. Therefore, children who have good environmental stimulation, brain function will develop better.

Free Teens Lifestyle - Sex, Cigarettes, Consumerism

Once we enter the era of life with a global communications system, with the ease of accessing information through print media, TV, internet, comics, media, mobile, and pirated DVDs on the loose in society, certainly provide great benefits for our lives. Every phenomenon that exists and happens in the world, will certainly give a positive value and negative. Highly dependent on the mindset and the foundation of their personal lives.
Each individual of us will feel happy with the presence of the product or service that is more sophisticated and practical. No exception of Internet technology that has been pulling down the boundary and the medium of television that provides entertainment, information and actual news. Likewise, mobile phones have helped fellow human beings for communication at any time with one another despite being the world's North-South or the East - the Sea.
Technology + Freedom - Education = Destruction

Each technology has a positive effect and negative. The rise of mobile phone use has lowered the individual interactions directly. This would tend to make the pattern of human life becomes indivualistis. This negative impact would be reduced and even avoided if only the user has an understanding / knowledge, ethics and attitudes are strong (positive-wise) to harness something selective and effective.
This is the point of the problem for children and adolescents. Internal Filters (understanding, ethics and attitudes) of children and adolescents are still very fragile. In the current era of complexity of today's life, parents (especially in urban areas) have lost the power to educate and build families for their children. This is compounded by the rise of "toxins" are accepted by our children today. Violent scenes, sexual, mystical, and hedonism in the TV media, newspapers and the Internet, as well as school education system that fails to build character, has been attacking our children today.
On the other hand, low regulation and law inforcement from the government and its apparatus, has led to rogue elements of our young generation destroyer "breed: rapidly. CCN between the authorities and an entrepreneur in the regulation, publication and distribution of media caused millions of Indonesia's future leaders at the end of extinction. A series of concerns about children and young people today such as juvenile delinquency, consumerist-hedonistic lifestyle, promiscuity, smoking, drugs, and addiction to games on line almost to the culture of "lifestyle" today's teens.
Technology without filtration (necessary regulations for freedom is not broken) and the fragility of education / human characters lead to the destruction of the nation.
Cigarettes, Drugs, Sex, and AIDS

Amid news students to excel in the arena of research, science olympics, arts and sports, youth Indonesia is currently threatened in times of chaos. Millions of our youth become victims of corporate-nicotine cigarettes. More than 2 million Indonesian adolescents addicted to drugs (BNN 2004) and over 8000 young people diagnosed with AIDS (MOH 2008). In addition, the morals of children in sexual relations has entered a phase of mengawatirkan. More than 60% of junior and senior high youth of Indonesia, was not a virgin anymore. Smoking behavior has undermined the joints of our community life.
Based on survey results of the National Commission for Child Protection in collaboration with the Child Protection Agency (LPA) in 12 provinces in 2007 obtained recognition of adolescents that:
- A total of 93.7% and secondary school children had to do kissing, petting, and oral sex.
- As many as 62.7% of children in junior high school claimed to have no virgin.
- A total of 21.2% high school teenager claimed to have an abortion.
- Of the 2 million Indonesian women who had had abortions, 1 million are adolescent girls.
- As many as 97% of middle and high school students admitted like watching porn.
Recognition of High School Girls, Teens Is this Us?

Continue ML (making love) deh. Usually we lakuin activity in the hotel. Sometimes at home, too, if people go home again all. If the house is not longer just a quiet yes most daring kiss and touch here and there. To me, all that unusual. Nglakuinnya because I feel confident I'm sure they'll be husband. I'm not afraid of sin. Kan we both want to, so there is no coercion. Sin occurs not when there is paksaaan. I think so! Time off, I do not regret it already nglakuin, exhausted, like how again! Relax! About sex education, I never received from parents. Most of the friends, magazines, books, or movies "
That narrative Neila (pseudonym), grade 3 a high school student in East Jakarta, who had just undergone UAN. Without load, this petite cute teen recounts. He and his girlfriend know what to do in order to premarital sex was not made her pregnant.
Until now, Neila sure her parents had no idea that his second daughter behavior. "I'm not going to Ceritalah, they can die suddenly. Friends who know even exist, of course who have similar experiences, "she said, twisting her hair.

According to him, ML among teenagers today is not that too familiar. In fact, there are deliberately seduce adult men who can be found in malls and other public places, to get money or valuables, such as the latest models of mobile phones, branded watches, clothes, shoes, bags, and so forth. "No profession really, just for fun. Calculated could create a style. Mending `I do, that's just the same nglakuinnya boyfriend and not for money," she said.
Allow or Acting?

We should go back to the roots of our national culture. Much earlier, the Indonesian nation is a nation that has a value of root (root value) culture that upholds the values of humanity and decency, as stated in the philosophy and values of Pancasila. Condition that afflicts young people today, must be fostered and educated so that they become leaders who have a high morality to build the nation and country.
All parties must feel responsible for this case. Besides the parents, the community role is essential. Our education system must also be changed. Do not raise the budget without increasing the real value of education. The government should strictly implement the laws, and the businessmen, merchants, and Internet web try to stop spreading things that are destructive (because our generation is still fragile.)
Things that should be done:
- The Government firmly filtration soap operas, movies or ads that contain sexual violence, promiscuity, mystical-religious, violence, religion, divination and gambling.
- Follow strict offenders Child Protection Act
- Menfilter porn sites in Indonesia. Until now only have 6 Porn Site of Indonesia's Most accessed
- Building Youth Centre, a center of education and creation for youth for positive activities.
- By actively controlling the promotion (advertising) and distribution of cigarettes.
- Prioritize prevention programs child trafficking, commercial sexual exploitation of children, and drugs.
- Educate the public that do not alienate the children (who are victims), help them to get out of their problems (material or moral).

SEX THE NAME OF LOVE (Adolescent Sexual Behaviour in the Surakarta Indonesia)

The theme of love seemed never exhausted to talk, never cracked to narrated, never stale for discussion. Every person is different in the manifest love. For parents, love is happiness when the baby looks cute and clever or love is the protection and expression of love saying when her baby was sick so lost joy. The wise man said to the child's parents love is true love.

If he is an eroticism, then love for him is how many pieces he has vcd porn watch, how many women who have been dating and how much he teasing and abusing it. Maybe he was supporting the theory of Sigmund freud who believes that human life is driven by the id (libido) only. Love does not always bring pleasure but can also bring sadness, disappointment and even hatred. Between love and sexual freedom really different, love is love each other, watch each other, protect each other, give each other with firm boundaries syar'i.

sex education in teens still it necessary?

During this time many people who question the usefulness of sex education for adolescents. Really there is no point? What is the status of sex education in foreign countries? Let us refer to the comparison!

ScienceDaily (Mar.20, 2008). Recent research shows that comprehensive sex education can reduce the likelihood of teenage pregnancy, and there is no indication that it is increasing the level of sexual activity or sexually transmitted diseases (STDs). "There is absolutely no harm to teach teens about birth control, in addition to the denial of sexual relations, 'said study leader, Pamela Kohler, a program manager at the University of Washington in Seattle. Parents and educators have long argued, whether the student should get a teaching birth control, or easily just say no to free sex. Which option is better to postpone sex among adolescents.

Kohler and colleagues studied the results of national survey of the United States in 2002 and focused on heterosexual teens ages 15 to 19 years. These findings, based on responses from 1719 adolescents, published in the Journal of Adolescent Health. After reviewing the results, researchers found that one in four teens received abstinence education only sex. Nine percent, particularly in poor and rural areas, do not receive sex education at all. Two-thirds of the remainder receive comprehensive instruction, with discussion of birth control and abstinence. Adolescents who received comprehensive sex education have 60 percent less likely to get pregnant, than who did not receive sex education at all. The possibility of pregnancy is 30 percent lower in those who received sex education abstinence only, than those who did not receive sex, but researchers assume that this number is statistically insignificant because few teens who fall into categories studied.

Although they did not reach statistical signifkansi, other surveys also suggest that comprehensive sex education, not the denial of sex alone, reduce the likelihood of teens engaging in vaginal intercourse. Both approaches reduce the likelihood of STDs are not reported, but the result is not statistically significant. However, these findings advocate comprehensive sex education, according to Kohler said. 'There is no evidence to support that denial of sex education course to reduce the likelihood of sexual intercourse, or pregnancy', Kohler said again.

Don Operario, PhD., A professor at Oxford University in England said that the study provides "further evidence ', to use comprehensive sex education and lack of effectiveness of the abstinence approach to sex alone. However, these studies do not show how educators should implement comprehensive sex education in the classroom, said Operario, who studies sex education. 'We need a better understanding of the most effective way to provide the type of education in order to maximize student understanding and acceptance of community', said Operario.
