Review

This study delves into a highly pertinent aspect of modern Indonesian family dynamics: the role of WhatsApp in facilitating interpersonal communication and maintaining trust between migrant children (*anak rantau*) and their parents. The abstract effectively highlights the growing challenge of geographical separation and the importance of consistent communication to bridge these distances, especially as young people increasingly live away from home. By focusing on the preservation of family trust in the digital age, the research addresses a relevant societal issue that resonates with many families navigating contemporary mobility and technological integration. Employing a descriptive qualitative methodology, the research utilized interviews as its primary data collection tool, followed by systematic data reduction and presentation to derive its conclusions. This approach is well-suited for exploring the intricate and subjective experiences of interpersonal communication. The findings suggest that when communication via WhatsApp is characterized by elements such as openness, empathy, support, positive attitudes, and equality, it plays a significant role in fostering an independent character in migrant children. This cultivated independence, the study posits, is instrumental in enabling the children to uphold their parents' trust while living away from home. While the study offers valuable initial insights, the presentation of its findings in the abstract could benefit from greater clarity and precision. The statement regarding "pola komunikasi orang tua dan Komunikasi interpersonal orang tua dengan anak..." feels somewhat ambiguous, and a more distinct articulation of *what* specific communication patterns or behaviors were observed, versus their resulting effects, would enhance comprehension. Additionally, although the study aims to identify communication obstacles, the abstract does not explicitly detail these findings. The full paper would be strengthened by elaborating on these challenges and how participants overcome them, alongside a more detailed discussion of the sample's demographics and a nuanced exploration of how "independence" is defined and evidenced in the context of trust maintenance.
