The results of this research showed that individuals including the parents of
the children in Balun unintentionally used Lev Vygotsky’s constructionism approach
and Berger and Luckmann’ social construction to construct the tolerant attitudes to
the children. Every process of the construction has been mirrored in three dialectical

scaffolding, language and thought involved in every dialectical moment. Within the
externalization, the parents of interreligious family tried to suit their lives in Balun’s
social reality. The main purpose of education in the interreligious family is to
internalize good moral and attitude to the children. To embody the purpose of such
education, the parents in the interreligious family used exemplary, dialogue,
narrative, and suggestive methods. In the objectivity, the parents in the interreligious
family tried to institutionalize the tolerant attitudes into their life, then making them
be habit in parts of their lives. To make the tolerant attitudes habit in their lives, the
parent used language or socio-cultural symbols, then getting any legitimation for the
making of objective of the social realities. In the objectivity, the parents used habit,
exemplary model, narrative, suggestive methods. While in the moment of
internalization, the parents in the interreligious family formed and had values of the
social reality (tolerant attitudes) back into their consciousness, then giving subjective
new interpretations or argumentations based on their experiences and positions in
Balun’s society. Within internalization, the parents used internalization and
comparative methods in the construction of tolerant attitudes toward the children. | en_US |
