Abstract

Technology advances offer convenience in our life nowadays. However, it also presents many challenges in families due to the excessive use of digital devices by parents and children. In this study, we will examine the way Riau Malay culture, also known as Tunjuk Ajar Melayu or Malay teachings, can be used as a guide for parenting in the digital age. The inability of parents to apply good parenting leads to problems in teaching children attitude and manner. The method used is the literature review from Riau Malay manuscripts. The result shows that Tunjuk Ajar Melayu contains noble values related to education and childcare. It can be used as guidelines for parents in educating children, including responsibility and role as parents, cooperation in educating children, and the ability to face problems that are the basis for parenting. It can be recommended that parents return to make Riau Malay cultural values as a guide in parenting in the digital era.
