Parenting Classes
Raising children is a challenging albeit rewarding task. As Muslims, we basically know 'what' we want our children to learn but what many can not grasp is 'how' to teach it to them. There are resources available to us that can help us to learn better ways to parent in a way to get the results we want without raising our voices or hitting--ever! These classes are provided at very low cost [some as low as $25 per series]. Take this step if you want to become a better parent. Here is the website with a listing of classes and how to sign up. Many are offered in Spanish too!
