<![CDATA[This study aims to analyze the dialectic of parenting patterns in the Pandalungan community in the process of internalizing religious character in elementary school students (SD/MI). The Pandalungan community, as a cultural entity resulting from the assimilation of Javanese and Madurese elements, exhibits complex parenting practices that combine rigid religious adherence with social flexibility. This research employed a qualitative method with a case study approach. Data were collected through in-depth interviews with students' parents, participant observation of students' religious activities, and documentation of character development records at school. Data analysis employed the Miles and Huberman model, which encompasses data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion drawing. The results indicate a dynamic dialectic between authoritarian-religious parenting (characteristic of Madurese culture) and persuasive-harmonious parenting (characteristic of Javanese culture). The process of internalizing students' religious character in elementary schools (SD/MI) is realized through three main mechanisms: The practice of disciplined religious rituals, role models based on local wisdom, and the reinforcement of moral values adaptive to the school environment. This dialectic successfully shapes students who are not only ritually obedient but also moderate in their social interactions within the school environment. These findings confirm that the strength of religious character of elementary school students in the Pandalungan region is rooted in the cultural synthesis that occurs within the family environment.]]>
