I just want to give them the foundation, and pray to Allah that he provides them with good judgement. I always thought that mind was like a wall, throw at it some mud, if it sticks than great, if not it needs to be reinforced :)Pancakehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02571796012516879910noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2837454513460518305.post-73435421762074728222009-02-15T10:01:00.000-08:002009-02-15T10:01:00.000-08:00Sonia: Take the chance while you have it!

I was sent to numerous <A HREF="http://modestjustice.blogspot.com/2009/01/sunday-school-memories.html" REL="nofollow">Sunday Schools</A> when I was 9. <BR/><BR/>Let's just say I've never finished the Qur'an. Insha'allah, send her now and to a good Islamic teacher, so she can learn by the time she's 6 or 9!<BR/><BR/>Gosh, the T.V is certainly the devil incarnate. But with the fear of Western ideologies in your children's impressionable minds, take it from a girl who learned to love Disney Channel and Myspace as a best friend. It's everywhere.<BR/><BR/>My mom had this weird philosophy. "Expose them to the culture now, so that they won't go looking for it later." Meaning, I could watch any channel I wanted but my parents still worked in to bring their values and Islamic values to me. I could go to the movies with my friends, (in hijab of course). Nothing was beyond my scope. The only fear I had was, what if I wasn't as religious? What if I didn't wear the hijab and manipulated my mother's philosophy to do whatever the hell I wanted? So with children, it's better to be moderate in everything (I'm sure you've heard this before). Don't completely bar your children from having non-muslim friends or the internet or t.v They'll only look for all these bad things later. One of my friend's isn't even allowed to join a sport or attend a university (only a state uni close to home) therefore, whenever there's a mixed gender event she knows her mother won't attend, she'll do everything possible to look pretty. Including taking off her hijab. <BR/><BR/>Forbidding your children from everything and letting them do everything will only lead them astray. But everything's up to Allah swt ^_^ModestJusticehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06512441472291054258noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2837454513460518305.post-35309185229282749562009-02-14T15:21:00.000-08:002009-02-14T15:21:00.000-08:00Yuck!!!I hate V-Day!!!

But it is so hard to sink in Muslim holidays and values in the kids before they are bombarded with the Western ideologies. As a mother it is frustrating. Although my oldest toddler is 3, I'm beginning to consider to send her to Quran classes.Pancakehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02571796012516879910noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2837454513460518305.post-74024272494141437352009-02-13T22:24:00.000-08:002009-02-13T22:24:00.000-08:00It amazes me to see how girls can pull of short sk...It amazes me to see how girls can pull of short skirts in the morning. Cold, much?<BR/><BR/>Same thing with Birthdays for me, the gagging, or it might be pent up jealousy for my lazy friends not having bought me balloons to show off.

That was the best thing for me. <BR/><BR/>I used to gag in high sch when ppl used to buy roses and cakes for each other. The worst was when V-Day was made a non-uniform day. I'd just faint seeing many poor girls in short pink skirts revealing their waxed legs for all predators. I went in uniform. And I didn't get roses from acne-faced losers.<BR/><BR/>Go muslimahs!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
