importance because school provides first exposure to formalized education. Parents should go through the child’s learning process –it requires an open outlook, a sensitive approach and conscientious attitude. Irrespective of the school, parents should provide the basic and necessary knowledge of Islam to children. Parents should be aware of school curriculum, especially those issues that are against Islamic teaching. Parents should be knowledgeable about what is going on in your child’s life in school such bullying, racism or any other offences. Getting basic understanding of Islam is a fundamental right for all children born in Muslim families. As the child grows and start going to school, parents should look for Weekend and Evening Schools, where the child can learn Qur’an, Arabic and Islamic Studies in an Islamic environment and Muslim-friendly atmosphere. Social programs should be arranged to give our children a sense of belonging. (i.e. day trips, camps, Umrah) At the near puberty stage, children should be discussed openly about cleanliness and personal hygiene. Parents should give quality time to children following the examples of our Prophet (PBUH). Parents must avoid head-on confrontation with their child at any situation. Parents should be good listeners. Children should be engaged in interesting and enjoyable activities. Balanced diet, regular exercise and intelligent games are important to be inculcated among the young ones so that they make them a habit of life. A loving and stable environment at this stage is absolutely vital.
