Assalam Allikum,
Dear sisters this is such a good subject. As many parents know, sometimes it is a challenge to look after your child when they have an ill temper.
I adore children, even though I don't have any of my own, I have a beautiful niece (my friends child.) I find if she wants her own way, all I have to do is use a firm tone with her. Then she knows who is boss per say and is willing to forgo junk food for a healthier alternative.
Arclight u r correct on how children can be naughty cause they want your attention cause they are not getting enough. This is so true. Parents need to play with their kids and teach them the Qu'ran etc.
I hope all parents look after their childs health and love them unconditionally as they love you. I know some parents, expecially the parents here in oz abuse their children. This saddens me.
So I think we should keep this thread up. If parents have questions ask here. I am sure you'll get very motherly Islamic advise.
Wasalam
