BUILDING A CULTURE OF TOLERANCE SINCE EARLY CHILDHOOD

Living in Indonesia, in a pluralistic society, harmony between religious believers is absolutely necessary. It would be very dangerous if the child grows and develops by bringing selfish qualities, closing oneself, feeling the most righteous, and wanting to win alone. Such conditions will cause difficulties for children to make adjustments properly when he was a teenager and adult. There are four most important conditions, namely: (1) if poor social behaviour patterns are developed at home, (2) if the home does not provide a model of behaviour to imitate, (3) lack of motivation to learn, (4) children do not get guidance and sufficient assistance in the learning process. In conclusion, children should not be threatening as an adult embryo but in the natural figure of a child. Data were obtained from books, scientific journals and other scientific works that are directly related to the topic of this paper.
