Abstract

Students’ respect toward teachers is a crucial element in ensuring the success of educational processes and character formation in schools. However, contemporary social dynamics and the influence of digital media have contributed to a decline in respectful behavior among adolescents. This study aims to describe the role of Guidance and Counseling (GC) teachers in cultivating and enhancing students’ respect for teachers at SMPK St. Theresia Kupang. A qualitative descriptive method with a phenomenological approach was employed to explore students’ experiences, perceptions, and behaviors related to respectful conduct within the school environment. The findings reveal that GC teachers play a strategic role through individual counseling, group counseling, classroom guidance, and responsive services that help students regulate emotions, improve communication skills, and internalize moral values and interaction ethics. GC teachers also function as mediators in conflict situations, facilitators of character development, and role models in fostering a culture of mutual respect. The study concludes that the integration of counseling services, teacher role modeling, and school-wide habituation practices is essential in rebuilding students’ sense of respect. Therefore, GC teachers hold a significant role in creating an ethical, harmonious, and conducive school climate for effective learning.

Abstract

This study examines early marriage among adolescents in Oenino Village, Oenino Subdistrict, South Central TimorRegency, and its implications for family guidance and counseling programs. This practice remains widespread and constitutes aserious social problem in the area. The study addressed three questions: (1) what factors cause early marriage among adolescents; (2) what impact early marriage has on their marital, family, health, psychological, and social conditions; and (3) how early marriage implicates family guidance and counseling programs. This study employed a qualitative descriptive method with 20research subjects selected through purposive sampling: 10 adolescents who underwent early marriage, 9 parents of the couples,and 1 village official. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews and documentation study, then analyzed throughdata reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing, with source triangulation used to establish data validity. The results showthat early marriage in Oenino Village is driven by three interrelated factors: family economic hardship, weak parental supervisionthat in some cases led to premarital pregnancy, and strong customary norms that regard early marriage as ordinary. Earlymarriage was found to affect marital relations through conflict and domestic violence, to increase the family's economic burden,to raise health risks such as postpartum hemorrhage and child stunting, to cause psychological pressure following school dropout, and to restrict adolescents'social freedom, particularly for girls. These findings imply the need for a planned and structured Family Guidance and Counseling program, delivered through collaboration among the village government, customary and religious leaders, and related health and education institutions.
