INTRODUCTION
The family is the main pillar of life, especially for young generation.The family is the first educator and guard leader to realize human resources.For that the total support of the family is able to give birth as if a miracle in their life.Such is the urgency of the function of the family as the smallest organization in the structure of society that contributes to the character and the mental state.Thus a strong nation depends on building a good family so that the family can become a pillar of development.But the hope of a formidable family to shape the nation's character and mentality is not always directly proportional to the reality in today's society.This is in line with family pressure even more severe because of the growing economic demands, technological developments to the increasingly heavy social changes as well.As a result the function of families in the community declined in the face of the nation's problems.Slowly but surely the weakness of family function has an impact on family resilience in shaping the character and mental of the nation.These family classic problems mentioned above, such as economy, education, and low access to healthy boards are still facing many Indonesian families.
Unfinished, the family is already faced with more complicated new challenges .The development of internet, consumerism, fading of appreciation, respect and caring to others until the problem of narcotics circulation, dishonesty, corruption and radicalism increasingly undermined the function of the family.Not to mention on the other hand, globalization, increasing individualism and increasingly weak social control make the burden faced greater.

Chairman of Center for Child and Family Welfare Studies Padjadjaran University
Bandung Nunung Nurwati (Kompas: 2017) said, only with the strength of family resilience, the various problems that can be passed.Weak family role will only give birth to a generation of weak and troubled nation.Still in Compass ,according to Nunung Nurwati, whatever happened to the nation all started from the family.Although the family plays an important role in determining the civilization of the nation, until now the family's development is still marginalized.Data from compass 2017, Indonesia has more than 65 million families.The new family development Budapest International Research and Critics Institute-Journal (BIRCI-Journal) Volume I, No 2, June 2018, Page: 182-195 e-ISSN: 2615-3076(Online), p-ISSN: 2615-1715(Print) www.birci-journal.com emails; birci.journal@gmail.com birci.journal.org@gmail.com - Sundanese, Aceh and Malay, while the majority of the population convert to Islam.Regarding everyday language.The Javanese language in that environment is almost evenly used by the native population there until its present generation.The harmonious and peaceful life is the atmosphere in the neighborhood, the social scene is colored by the frenzy of narcotics-free circulation, the internet, the changing of the city landscape due to the widening of the road, home stores, the presence of lodging, boarding houses and business activities.Part of the new building was a semi-permanent home functioning process with a vast page of parent's legacy.Most of the old houses were semi-permanent with large grounds and grounds.They live together with relatives who still have a kinship.The transfer of functions may be due to the division of inheritance to his children and some temporarily or permanently transfers to others of the second generation of society there.From there the model of life there began to look more pragmatic because of economic demands, urban movements, the rate of urbanization job seekers (labor and office), lectures and factors caused by marriage.As a result many immigrants both women and men are relatively young.They have homes and buy land and houses sold by the old people.But the interaction of immigrants does not necessarily affect the kinship system of the old inhabitants and even new citizens are difficult to stick to any long-established relation activity such as interfamily, inter-family, Do not be surprised in Market 6 is there old family system and new family so that family function is different Head of Environment I Endang Wahyudi, 40, who is also a research informant in the field admitted the above information.Endang is the second generation of the old population who live in groups to build a family relationship that is thick enough in the form of arisan or recitation from one alley to the other alleys along Market 6.He served as head of the neighborhood for the late Suratman's legacy, his parents who had previously been the head of the neighborhood for a long time there to replace the late Rashim.He said about 10 or 15 heads of old families (first generation) live spreading in about 10 alleys in the neighborhood that build next-generation family relationships (second and third generation or grandchildren).One of the 15 families has several children (second generation) who produce grandchildren.
One family (first generation) sometimes has 10 children who then form a social relationship by establishing recitation and arisan until the age of 20 years.Arisan is still running.

Besides giving a sense of comfort in the family.Their parents were not preoccupied with their work like the current demands of going home late at night even overtime and away from home, but only entrepreneurship at home and use of energy while entrepreneurship.Under these conditions, family communication always provides the necessary recognition and support from parents to their children.According to Lek Silok, rarely communicating family conflicts or not support each other.The man who has six grandchildren said the public atmosphere here cool, despite the growing economic demands, technological developments to rapid social changes to make the family face increasingly severe challenges.He acknowledges that some of the above demands affect family functions but they can be anticipated by initiative to move a small economy by selling and so forth in front of the house or other place.In addition, the youngster's relationship is well preserved in organizations such as youth or making organization community.
This relationship is built not apart from the concept of self-implanted parents through the actions and family communication.In subsequent interviews, Lek Silok said almost the average parent of the old family inherited the entrepreneurial spirit and freelancers.Indirectly the two jobs are transmitted to the child and his son-in-law.The vast home page of parent's legacy is used to trade by making small kiosks in front of the house or building a few plots, while her husband as a freelancer.Thus the question of economic demands that hit at this time not to be too weak in the function of extended family let alone to triggered a fundamental conflict.Old family parents leave a good interpersonal relation as well as good personality, good religion, better physical and mental health, meet each other's good social needs during their inter-age life as well as parents of today's second generation who continue to capitalize the personality of his parents until now.The Budapest International Research and Critics Institute-Journal (BIRCI-Journal) Volume I, No 2, June 2018, Page: 182-195 e-ISSN: 2615-3076(Online), p-ISSN: 2615-1715(Print) www.birci-journal.com emails; birci.journal@gmail.com birci.journal.org@gmail.com - above elements as part of the determinants in the scope of interpersonal communication (Littlejohn & Foss: 658).The 60-year-old Murniati who is also an informant in this research reinforces that the arisan they built has been 20 years.He is the younger brother of the deceased Hj Mariati, a long-standing survivor who has built an intimate family communication between family members and social relations.Communication between children, parents, and parents can be a source of joy.From an interview with Murniati who is also still an arisan board, it is revealed that Rasyim arrived at the age of 80 and Hj Mariati was 76 years old, before dying, continued to provide high-level mutual love to his children and grandchildren on an ongoing basis.Williams and Nussbaum ( 2001) found many factors that explain the strength of parentchild relationships that are 70 years old or older, namely the urgency of parent-the eternal child remains satisfactory if there is a fixed relationship.In addition, despite the elderly, according to Murniati, the two of them and their parents continue to provide social support and real assistance and the agreement on values, beliefs and moral statements that form self-concepts such as "fellow brothers do not mutually jealous "," live in harmony "," do not be stingy "," do not forget to pray  : 182-195 e-ISSN: 2615-3076(Online), p-ISSN: 2615-1715(Print) www.birci-journal.comemails; birci.journal@gmail.combirci.journal.org@gmail.com purpose of digging together the meaning of symbols and objects that are the social environment of the family.This is related to relationships that are only supportive characterized by mutual respect and concern for one another.
Likewise patterns of communication with the orientation of obedience also awakened in the family communication between parents and children who contribute in building family resilience.Most of the messages of kindness and self-concept came from parents directly among them the importance of visiting each other among the brothers in the neighborhood and sending children to the pesantren.Parents hold the authority to give opinions, responses and actions to social reality (Berger al: 689).mother son, Ridho 35 years old, is still the third generation of old family in san as well as the writer's informant reveal the above information can be felt until now.
He has also been involved with an arisan that is over 20 years old built by grandmothers and grandparents (parents of mother).It is typical of family communications to the old community there who uphold family secrets and restrictions on taboo matters.The message was conveyed by parents to children, especially their families, so the families there maintained unusual topics in family gatherings.At the time of the late Usman AS, the husband of Ibu Rasmi, the first son of the deceased Rashim, was still alive, had told him about his son and son-in-law related to him selling the land and the money he would use for the pilgrimage.After a few months Pak Usman died the information spread among the family but it was still limited that Pak Usman had saved the pilgrimage, and the deceased had hajj through the process of hajj or replacing Hajj through other people but the condition is the person who has ever gone to the holy land.Some familiar families were touched and shocked by the information.

not knowing whether the parent's inheritance is valid for the next 10 or 20 years because the indication of family resilience and function is weakened in the family communication aspect as above."I am pessimistic that the relation between families on the next generation can be continued," he said.Endang gives his view that many parents now in their environment who do not continue the way of family communication in which contribute to the formation of selfconcept or character of child .even though principle of family communication shows that the importance of messages and relationships in interpersonal communication.People have a lot of communication.One communication goal can be achieved through many different messages and one message can meet many different purposes(Littlejohn & Foss: 661).Regardless of how the future challenges of the next generation, now the next generation of parents and their relatives (second generation) in Pasar 6 has been functioning to build their interrelationship till now in the form of recitation, wirit and arisan.This is in line with the assertion that most functions concerning the family system are the product of communication within the family(Budyatna and Ganiem: 168).Another informant, 65-year-old Susilo, said the pattern of family communication that raises the term old family and new family in the neighborhood.He claimed to feel his own warm and supportive of old family relationships because it is inherited by parents in the environment.Figure people who used to be a priest in Nurul Mukminin Mosque in Market 6 is called Lek Silok in the family and society.His daily work as a freelance worker.Her parents left a number of plots of land and houses there.The location of the house and her late parents' heritage is only a few meters from her home now.She married Rasmiati, the second child of 11 siblings of the late Rashim and deceased Hj Mariati.Mekua Lek Silok is one of the old people or can be called the first generation in Pasar 6 which also has a number of plots of land and a large parent house exactly on the edge of Jalan Kenanga Raya.After the death of Rashim grandfather and Mariati grandmother, the house and land were divided for his son.Now her six children (second generation) inhabit the house side by side.The division of land and the main house building is only separated by the brick wall coverings.The house facing the road was formed semi house shop.The children of Rashim grandmother live with their parents' inherited entrepreneurship, in front of the house such as selling breakfast, soup, groceries and some of the Budapest International Research and Critics Institute-Journal (BIRCI-Journal) Volume I, No 2, June 2018, Page: 182-195 e-ISSN: distribution have changed hands but the buyers are still close relatives of their parents first.While the son of Rasyim grandfather chose as a freelancer.Formerly Rashim grandmother and his wife did not have an adequate level of education as well as most of their children quit primary school.Likewise, Rashim grandfather has been an influential person in the environment because he is a figure who is good at respecting, appreciating, tenacious and easy to build relationships so that appointed head of the environment at the Market 6 Rasyim grandfather and his parents in the community, including Lek Silok and Endang parents, are called old families whose children (second generation) continue to build social relationships in the form of family gatherings and recitals that have been around for 20 years.Back to Lek Silok, he and his family were among those who got the distribution of the house and settled in the row of the house of his father-in-law Rashim grandfather .Furthermore, Lek Silok and his wife invited four of his daughters-in-law to occupy the house part of the division of his parents in Gang Wiria one person lives with him.They live from the alley to the alley.Thus the old family bases are patterned in kinship that co-exist.Similarly, the family of Rashim grandfather, although the relics of the main house in front of Jalan Kenanga Raya but the location of his house entered the Peace Gang section.So also in the alley there are several plots of land and heritage house.Some have been sold remaining one plot of land and a house that is now occupied the first daughter named Rasmi (second generation) who now has seven grandchildren.Two children of married mother Rasmi lived in the house also helped connect family relationships there by following recitation and arisan.According Lek Silok, the old family is formed from the first generation of parents who first settled the environment, while the new family is an outsider or urban as a job seeker, college, open business, office and others.For that reason there is a rarity or fundamental conflict.All family and social problems are brought in arisan, recitation, mutual forgiveness forgive before entering Ramadan and youth gathering.Mutual visits and greetings, especially on Eid al-Fitr by the parents are still running until now.The tools of social relations are always there conversations about the news of children, grandchildren,
