<![CDATA[Child education in Hindu families plays a fundamental role in shaping a child's character, morals, and spirituality as the foundation for their life in society. The family is seen as the primary educational institution responsible for instilling dharmic values according to Hindu law from an early age. Within the family environment, children not only acquire basic knowledge but also learn about ethics, responsibility, discipline, and respect for parents, others, and God. Therefore, family education is an important foundation for the development of a child's complete personality. This article aims to examine the concept of child education in Hindu families from the perspective of Hindu law and analyze the various challenges faced in the context of modern life. The research method used is normative legal research with a conceptual and philosophical approach, through a study of the Vedas, Hindu literature, and other supporting literature relevant to education and family development. The results of the study indicate that child education according to Hindu law emphasizes a balance between intellectual development, moral formation, strengthening discipline, and spiritual development. Values such as dharma, devotion, and self-control are the main principles in the child's education process. However, the changing times, marked by digitalization, changing parenting styles, and the strong influence of globalization, present unique challenges for parents in consistently implementing these values. Therefore, an adaptive, humanistic, and contextual education model is needed without neglecting Hindu values. The synergy between Hindu legal principles and modern educational approaches is expected to produce a generation with noble character, ethics, and spirituality, ready to face the dynamics of modern life.]]>
