On the basis of scientific literature analysis it can be stated that at pre-primary age leadership is fostered developing children’s self-confidence, initiative, communication with adults, empathy, curiosity, leading of activities and play, activity, self-regulation and self-control, creativity, generating of ideas, which may be expressed in musical activities as well. Therefore, applying musical activities, expression of various features may be encouraged, their synthesis and variations may be achieved to enable a child to experience the nurtured qualities and to develop them. The results of the research on expression of leadership qualities of pre-primary children in musical activities showed that children’s leadership qualities are expressed in singing most frequently. Expression of leadership in other activities such as listening to music, playing and rhythmisation, improvisation and creation, is not so suggestive. Expression of leadership qualities in all activities should be encouraged, whereas during singing activities, all the distinguished leadership qualities were noticed: communicating with adults, generating of ideas, leading of activities and play, initiative, activity, empathy, creativity, curiosity, sensitivity, self-regulation and self-control. The analysis of children’s opinion about leadership qualities revealed that: 1) distribution of favorable musical activities is predetermined by child’s wish to involve in a certain activity and its attractiveness. Therefore, the role of a teacher is important presenting these activities in an attractive way and making attempts to strengthen learners’ interested in them; 2) children like to rally other children for activities but involve in them to a different extent. Some of them seek to lead, others generate ideas and show initiative to rally other children but they later assume the role of a collaborator and do not lead activities. Moreover, a number of children experience a negative influence of their peers, when they are not invited to engage in play, i.e., they lose self-confidence or engage in play only as an observer.

Role Of Parents

In an effort to improve the progress of the Indonesian nation, it is necessary to pay attention to all levels of society, especially the young people who will be the pillars of the Indonesian nation in the future. One fourth of Indonesia's population is children and adolescents. Other studies have shown that parenting can influence a child's level of self-confidence, academic performance, and children's behavior. This research was to examine the "Role of Parents’ Parenting towards Urban Adolescents’ Quality of Life". A quantitative method with non-experimental was used and attended by 381 State High School students (SMAN), ages of 14-19 years in schools of X and Y in X city, namely 234 girls and 147 boys. Measuring instruments used are Youth Quality of Life (YQOL) and parenting measuring instruments that have been adapted. Based on the results of different tests on parenting parents with One-way Anova obtained values of F = 10,203, p = .000 <.05 for mothers’ parenting, and F = 6,146, p = .000 <.05 for fathers’ parenting, so there are significant differences between quality of life with parenting styles. The results showed that "authoritative" parenting has a high quality of life, where parents encourage, also provide limits, adolescents become independent individuals. Meanwhile, “neglectful” parenting has a low quality of life, lacks involvement in the lives of children, adolescents do not become independent individuals, less competent in socializing and lack of self-control. Dalam upaya meningkatkan kemajuan bangsa Indonesia perlu diperhatikan semua lapisan masyarakat, khususnya para remaja yang akan menjadi tiang tonggak bangsa Indonesia di masa mendatang. Seperempat dari penduduk Indonesia merupakan anak-anak dan remaja. Penelitian lainnya menunjukkan bahwa pola asuh orangtua dapat mempengaruhi tingkat kepercayaan diri anak, performa dalam akademik, dan perilaku anaknya. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk menguji “Peranan Pola Asuh Orang Tua terhadap Kualitas Hidup Remaja Perkotaan.” Jenis penelitian ini menggunakan metode kuantitatif dengan non eksperimental dan ini diikuti oleh 381 siswa SMAN berusia 14-21tahun di sekolah X dan Y di kota X, yakni 234 wanita dan 147 pria. Alat ukur yang digunakan adalah Youth Quality of Life (YQOL) dan alat ukur pola asuh yang telah diadaptasi. Berdasarkan hasil uji beda pada pola asuh orangtua dengan Oneway Anova diperoleh nilai F = 10.203, p = .000 < .05 untuk pola asuh ibu, dan F = 6.146, p = .000 < .05 untuk pola asuh ayah, sehingga terdapat perbedaan yang signifikan antara kualitas hidup dengan pola asuh orangtua. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan, remaja dengan pola asuh orangtua yang “authoritative” memiliki kualitas hidup yang tinggi, dimana orang tua mendorong, juga memberikan batasan, remaja menjadi pribadi yang mandiri. Sementara, remaja dengan pola asuh orangtua yang “neglectful” memiliki kualitas hidup yang rendah, dimana kurang keterlibatan orangtua dalam kehidupan anak, remaja menjadi pribadi tidak mandiri, kurang kompeten bersosialisasi dan kurang pengendalian diri.
