Eva Megawati br Barus, a 40-year-old homemaker with three children, has undergone significant positive changes after participating in the FH Education program. Previously, she had limited understanding of education and often struggled to control her emotions, especially in her interactions with her children. She tended to dominate decisions without considering her children's wishes. However, through the FH program, Eva has experienced remarkable emotional growth. She learned to control her anger and understand the importance of listening to the individual wishes and needs of each child. As a result, she has become more patient and wise in raising her children. Eva has also increased her involvement in her children's education and is committed to providing them with the opportunity to continue their education to a higher level. Furthermore, she has implemented practices learned from the FH program, such as reading books to her children and actively participating in their school activities.
