Islam emphasizes the importance of active parenting and engagement, particularly during the years of adolescence.

This requires attentiveness and understanding of what the child is encountering and experiencing on a day to day basis. The process includes monitoring their behavior and demeanor, looking out for potential signs of distress, and knowing how to deal with it.

This is especially crucial if the child is facing mistreatment or aggression outside of the home. Watch to learn more.
