No individual chooses to be born into a specific family or under certain conditions. Differences in socioeconomic conditions will always exist in society, leading to the formation of various groups at any time and place. When a teenager is born into a family with a different socioeconomic background, it can cause pressure due to feelings of inferiority, embarrassment, and even jealousy, as socioeconomic status impacts their life and education. Every child has the right to education. The cost of education is a challenge for those in vulnerable socioeconomic conditions. The issues they face are not just economic but also social in nature. Fostering Christ-like character should be a focus in Christian education, especially for adolescents. Adolescence is a vulnerable and complex stage with issues and conflicts related to self-image, values, ethics, and morality. Teenagers need proper guidance and teaching to grow into strong individuals with a Christ-like character and resilience in their lives. Economic issues are indeed related to education. However, there remains an open path to educate adolescents according to their needs. “Train up a child in the way he should go, and when he is old, he will not depart from it.” (Proverbs 22:6)

Perkembangan teknologi industri 4.0, khususnya Robotic Process Automation (RPA), telah memberikan dampak signifikan terhadap profesi akuntan. Penelitian ini mengkaji dampak ganda RPA terhadap akuntan di Indonesia, yakni apakah kehadirannya merupakan ancaman atau peluang transformasi profesional. Menggunakan metode Systematic Literature Review (SLR) dengan protokol PRISMA, literatur yang diterbitkan antara tahun 2019 hingga 2024 diidentifikasi, disaring, dan disintesis secara sistematis melalui analisis tematik. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa meskipun RPA mengotomasi tugas akuntansi yang berulang sehingga mengancam peran rutin, di sisi lain teknologi ini membuka peluang bagi akuntan untuk bergeser ke fungsi yang lebih strategis, analitis, dan konsultatif. Namun demikian, kesenjangan kompetensi digital masih menjadi hambatan utama adaptasi akuntan Indonesia. Penelitian ini menyimpulkan bahwa respons terkoordinasi dari institusi pendidikan, organisasi profesi, dan perusahaan sangat diperlukan untuk membekali akuntan dengan kompetensi yang relevan di era otomasi.
