1. Praise your child, even if they get 1/10 in an exam, praise your child in front of others but give him/her reasons to perform better after.
2. Never make your child(ren) feel that he or she is useless. Never favour one child over the other.
3. Every time you speak with your child(ren), speak with respect, don’t use slang such as ‘gimme’, instead say ‘please give me’; use clear words, be polite and never use 'f' words or swear.
4. You need to bear in mind when your child(ren) is young that he or she is just a child, don’t take away their playing time by treating them like adults. If you do this, they will rebel in life.
5. Assist your child(ren) in making decisions. He or she must be taught to make decisions. Acknowledge them, guide them by talking to them. If they want to go for something, then help them plan.
6. Whenever you have decisions to make, ask your child(ren) for his or her opinion. For example, if you are going to buy a car, ask them what colour they’d like the car to be. This develops the habit of consultancy in them.
7. If possible, dedicate a corner of the house to your child(ren) and write the name(s) of your child(ren) there – make it their little space. Put their certificates on the wall; this will make them more confident of themselves.
8. Teach your child(ren) to follow you in prayers. Lead them rather than merely instructing, it is a more powerful way to teach them. Your child(ren) will remember what he/she sees you doing forever. Start instructing them to pray as early as possible, this will help make it easy for them to pray when they reach puberty and it becomes norm to them.
9. Teach your child(ren) how to put forward their opinions, how to agree or disagree on matters. Don’t use swear, 'f' words or be aggressive when you disagree on anything as this will be picked up by your child(ren). They pick up things very fast.
10. Encourage your child(ren) to ask questions and try to answer each question. Otherwise, they will get the answer from probably wrong source(s). Praise their questions at all times.
11. Always fulfil your promise(s) to your child(ren). Do not make big promise(s) which you cannot fulfil; this makes them develop a habit of making false promise(s). If you fail to fulfil any promise(s), explain why.
12. It is very important to teach your child(ren) how to develop skills of being a member of a group. Team work is very important; this teaches them to give chances to people in life rather than always competing.
13. Say prayers for your child(ren). Even if they have done wrong or gone astray, still pray for them.
14. Let them know they might fail several times, but never to lose hope. Teach them how to react to a failures and how important it is to try again or move on. Tell them "falling down is not failure but refusing to get up is.
15. Apologise to your child(ren) if you know you have wronged them or have made mistake(s), this teaches your child(red) to repent whenever they have done wrong or made mistake(s). Don’t raise ifs and buts when you are wrong; there are no ifs and buts when it comes to repentance.
16. Have a few surprises for your child(ren), to praise their good deeds, give them recognition at home and explain to them that this surprise is for the good deeds that you did and vice versa.
17. Make sure you train your child(ren) to read a portion of the Holy Book daily in accordance to their capacity.
18. Tell your child(ren) repeatedly that you love them, tell them how gorgeous they are and how important they are to you, hug them, cuddle them, it is important to peck your child(ren).
If you feel this message will help one or more of your family or friends, forward this message to them. Perhaps this might be beneficial for them and you will get the appraisal for them.
