Punya anak

Have children

معنی

Being a parent to kids.

🌍

زمینه فرهنگی

The phrase 'Banyak anak, banyak rezeki' is a traditional belief that more children bring more wealth and blessings to a family. Modern urban families often follow the 'Dua anak cukup' (Two children is enough) program, which was a successful government campaign for family planning. In Batak culture, having a son (anak laki-laki) is traditionally very important to carry on the family name (marga). Javanese parents are often referred to by their first child's name. If the child is 'Budi', the father is 'Pak Budi'. This makes 'punya anak' a literal name-changing event. The term 'Childfree' is becoming a hot topic in Indonesia, challenging the traditional 'punya anak' norm, often leading to heated debates online.
