Parenting
It's heart wrenching when a parent sheds tears and says:"why did my children grow up like this?
why do they keep hurting my feelings?
what did I do wrong in raising them?
I gave them my all, all that is expected of a muslim parent!
Was it not enough?
What do I do now?
If they continue to treat me this way, I will leave them and never look back!"
All I can say then was, " be patient, this is Allah's test unto you, pray to him, and he will show you the way on how to handle these feelings"
Then I started thinking....
Parenting values starts when the mother conceived...then does it stop? If yes when? Or does the parenting style changes all the time? If yes, when and how does it change?
Does anyone really knows all the answers to parenting? Does it guarantee anything?
Hmmmm..too many questions....
Ultimately, I always remember and live by this....as a parent, we should set good examples to our children....read for them Al-Fatehah each time after our prayers. Insyallah, they will grow up to be good muslims.
If anyone has more inputs on these, please do enlighten me...
