But along with the times, many<br />married couples choose not to have children, this is certainly contrary to the<br />construction of Indonesian society related to the concept of the ideal family. This can be<br />seen from the decline in Total Fertility Rate in Indonesia. This study used descriptive<br />quantitative methods with purposive sampling techniques based on criteria, namely<br />women aged 27-35 years who belonged to the millennial generation, a total of 50<br />respondents. Primary data sources through online penelitians. This study uses Schmitt<br />&amp; Schmitt's theory of direct and constructive perception to see the influence of internal<br />and external factors in the formation of perception. The results show that individual<br />internal and external factors influence millennial women's perceptions of the presence<br />of children in marriage. Then, the millennial generation, which prioritizes maturity,<br />stability and readiness from various factors, interprets the presence of children in the<br />family as not a necessity and does not make children the only source of happiness even<br />though it is undeniable that children become a complement to the family. Further<br />studies are needed to obtain more comprehensive data. In addition, premarital<br />education and counseling programs, gender equality campaigns, community support<br />and social networks can be used as recommendations.<br />Keywords:<br />perception, millennial, child, marriage</p> Anastasya Eka Wardhana Husmiati Yusuf Copyright (c) 2024 Anastasya Eka Wardhana, Husmiati Yusuf https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/4.0 2024-08-31 2024-08-31 8 1 10.31595/ijsw.v8i1.1221 THE ROLE OF DIGITAL TRANSFORMATION IN ENHACING THE ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT OF SINGLE-PARENT FAMILIES: A LITERATURE REVIEW https://jurnal.poltekesos.ac.id/index.php/ijsw/article/view/1272 <p><em>This paper explores the role of digital transformation in enhancing economic development within single-parent families.

The results of the research obtained show that Puskesos Lebak Siliwangi has integrated social services into the social assistance program with the Social Services Office of Bandung City, the National Amil Zakat Agency (Baznas) of the city of Bandung, and the Rumah Amal Salman. The integration of services in the social assistance program carried out by Puskesos with the relevant parties has been done well, but there are obstacles experienced, such as inaccuracy of information of the recipients of assistance when communicating with the related parties, lack of special appreciation by the service provider, and no brainstorming in the collaboration carried on. All these problems lie on one focus of the problem, which is the lack of joint evaluation of the service process that has been ongoing.</em></p> Mohamad Satria Surya Aji Admiral Nelson Nelson Aribowo Aribowo Copyright (c) 2024 Mohamad Satria Surya Aji, Admiral Nelson Nelson, Aribowo Aribowo https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/4.0 2024-08-30 2024-08-30 8 1 10.31595/ijsw.v8i1.1320 the THE IMPACT OF FREE ASSOCIATION ON TEENAGERS' BEHAVIOR AT STATE SENIOR HIGH SCHOOL 3 CIMAHI https://jurnal.poltekesos.ac.id/index.php/ijsw/article/view/1338 <p><em>This research is entitled "The Impact of Promiscuity on Adolescent Behavior at SMA Negeri 3 Cimahi".

The purpose of this study is to describe the social support received by PLWHA in Garut Regency as a strategy that can be used to prevent lost of follow-up antiretroviral therapy for PLWHA. This study uses a qualitative descriptive method. The informant selection technique in this study used purposive sampling, with the number of informants obtained reaching as many as 10 people. Data collection in this study was obtained from in-depth interviews, observation, and documentation studies. The location of this research was Garut Regency. The study results indicate that LTFU is a big challenge for PLWHA. First, the side effects that are caused by PLWHA make PLWHA feel uncomfortable. PLWHA prefer to stop taking medication because they are unable to overcome the side effects of ARV therapy. Second, the stigma and discrimination attached to PLWHA also make them lazy to continue their treatment because they are embarrassed and do not want to get stigma and discrimination, which makes PLWHA choose to stop their treatment. Social support, especially from family members, played a major role in PLWHA's being able to consistently undergo ARV therapy. The family member who knows about PLWHA's condition helps remind PLWHA to always take medication and check their health condition routinely at the hospital. In addition, social support from NGOs also plays an important role in helping PLWHA get access to affordable or free health services. Social support from buddies at NGOs who are also HIV-positive turned out to be very helpful for PLWHA in accepting their condition as HIV-positive people. It can be concluded that social support strengthens PLWHA to be able to continue their lives with more confidence, meaning, and stronger personalities in the middle of a society that still gives stigma and discrimination to PLWHA.</p> Arini Dwi Deswanti Nono Sutisna Moch Zaenal Hakim Copyright (c) 2024 Arini Dwi Deswanti, Nono Sutisna, Moch Zaenal Hakim https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/4.0 2024-09-06 2024-09-06 8 1 10.31595/ijsw.v8i1.1352
