Abstract

The use of the social media platform TikTok is increasingly widespread among children and has become one of the digital platforms that significantly influence their behavior and character development. This article aims to analyze the negative impact of TikTok on children’s character through library research, highlighting the limited number of studies that specifically link TikTok use with children’s character formation. Data were obtained from books, scholarly journals, and research findings related to social media and child development, and were analyzed using a qualitative critical analysis technique. The findings show that TikTok has a significant impact on children’s moral, behavioral, social, and emotional aspects; exposure to age-inappropriate content contributes to decreased politeness, the emergence of negative imitative behaviors, concentration disturbances, and a tendency to seek social validation. In addition, intensive use of TikTok weakens children’s ability to interact in real-life social settings and reduces their emotional stability. This article concludes that guidance, digital supervision, and strengthened character education are necessary so that children can respond to the influence of social media critically and responsibly, while also underscoring the urgency of character education in the digital era as an integral part of parenting and child education.

Abstract

The rapid development of social media, particularly TikTok, has had a significant impact on children's character, including emotional, moral, and social aspects. This article discusses the negative impacts of TikTok use on children's character development and highlights the strategic role of Islamic Religious Education teachers in addressing these influences. A literature review found that excessive TikTok use can trigger emotional instability, decreased focus on learning, addictive behaviour, imitation of immoral content, and decreased self-confidence due to unrealistic social standards. In addressing this phenomenon, Islamic Religious Education teachers have a crucial role as character mentors, digital literacy facilitators, role models of Islamic values, and collaborative partners for parents and the school community. Possible measures include integrating character education into Islamic Religious Education learning, developing digital ethics, assisting students in selecting content, and strengthening religious activities as a form of internalising Islamic values. This article emphasises that character development in the digital era requires a holistic approach that combines moral education, digital literacy, and collaboration between schools and families to enable students to use social media wisely and ethically.
