Some skills are [00:02:34] inherent in us and innate. Some skills are acquired [00:02:37] that we can acquire through learning and repetition and [00:02:40] we can acquire them in our lives and try to acquire skills [00:02:44] through our correct performance. As I mentioned before, most of our loved ones [00:02:48] have documents for one section but they don't [00:02:52] have enough skills to do that job. They need to learn [00:02:55] life skills. We need to have [00:02:59] personal skills in managing our life affairs. We need to have [00:03:02] social skills in managing our social affairs, such as [00:03:06] having good relationships with others. We need to have good [00:03:10] trade and exchange, and in different environments such as home, society, [00:03:14] and work, we need to have effective communication. Life skills that involve [00:03:18] effective and useful communication, so that others [00:03:21] enjoy our presence and our work doesn't get stuck, [00:03:25] meaning it moves forward. We need to have technical skills, [00:03:28] like using computers and [00:03:30] using our mobile phones or [00:03:34] using other things. For example, I don't [00:03:37] have the skill of driving a car. If [00:03:41] I am in situations where I have urgent tasks or I am in [00:03:45] moments where it is necessary and I don't have this skill, I cannot [00:03:48] attend to my work in a short time, and I look for [00:03:52] another person who has the skill of driving. I go and look for them. [00:03:56] This means I need another person or [00:03:59] we need someone to fulfill our needs. If we have [00:04:03] enough skills, we can do our work at the earliest [00:04:07] opportunity without needing anyone else. [00:04:10] Skills are a major and essential part of life. [00:04:13] They are built through repetition, through training, through [00:04:16] following this path. We have situations [00:04:20] in life that we must prioritize that shape our lives, [00:04:23] shape our daily tasks, open the way for us to be able to [00:04:27] direct and lead our lives towards [00:04:31] success, towards the golden goals [00:04:34] of our lives, so that we have very good achievements. [00:04:37] We need to have the skill of solving challenges or problems in life. In addition to [00:04:41] having the skill to solve our problems, [00:04:44] we can also learn from other loved ones around us [00:04:48] or at home. We need to have conflict [00:04:51] resolution skills. We have very good opportunities in [00:04:55] life to acquire life skills. And now [00:04:58] is the time. If you start, start by studying, [00:05:02] by watching skill videos, by watching videos that [00:05:05] are educational, learn your life skills, improve [00:05:08] them and become an excellent person. In today's program, [00:05:12] we will have dear and respected guests. Engineer Abdullah will be with us. [00:05:16] He is a social activist and will talk about the role of the family in raising [00:05:20] children and guiding them. Mawlawi Mohammad [00:05:23] Nasim Ahmadi, a religious scholar, will talk about freedom or liberty. [00:05:27] Jahangir Talash, a professor at the institute, will talk about [00:05:31] the topic of the program, which is skill and its advantages. [00:05:35] We will have a discussion, and also Abdullah [00:05:37] Wahdat, a university professor, will talk about sports and [00:05:41] health. We will talk to them. [00:11:08] Never be afraid to give up good things to achieve [00:11:12] better things. [00:11:13] Don't be afraid. [00:11:20] Welcome back to the rest of the program. Hello, good morning. Thank you for [00:11:24] being with us. Your kind regards [00:11:28] to the program. Good morning. We will be at your service [00:11:31] until this hour. We will be talking about skill and [00:11:35] its advantages, which is the topic of the program. In a few moments, we will have discussions [00:11:38] with our other guests. And also, [00:11:41] the communication line between us and you is the Facebook page of the program "Good Morning Afghanistan". [00:11:45] Don't forget the program "People's Media of [00:11:48] Afghanistan" regarding the achievement of the 24th [00:11:51] of Asad, Afghanistan's Independence Day. The 24th [00:11:55] of Asad is not a date, but [00:11:58] a narrative of the proud people of Afghanistan who stood [00:12:01] against the occupiers who had come to the country, [00:12:05] and achieved victory. [00:12:08] I hope that our people will always be away from [00:12:11] the sound of gunfire and smoke and gunpowder. [00:12:15] I hope that we will live together in peace and tranquility in our beloved country, [00:12:19] dear Afghanistan, in our own home, [00:12:22] and lead our lives with its beauties. [00:12:32] They serve their country honestly, and this country has a right over us. [00:12:35] The homeland is like a mother, and I hope that we serve [00:12:38] our great mother. Engineer Abdullah [00:12:41] Mohammad, good morning. I have with me a social activist [00:12:45] who will talk about the role of the family [00:12:49] in raising children, which is our topic of discussion. [00:12:52] Mr. Mohammadi, good morning. Welcome. Good morning to you, respected sir, [00:12:56] your colleagues, and all the dear ones who are watching [00:12:59] us from behind their televisions. Good day. [00:13:03] I greet all of them, hoping [00:13:06] they have started a good and happy morning with their [00:13:10] families. And also, since it's almost [00:13:12] the 24th of Assad, we also [00:13:15] congratulate the victory of the people of Afghanistan [00:13:19] under the leadership of the Islamic Emirate, the independence of the country, to all [00:13:22] the Mujahid and martyr-nurturing people of the country. [00:13:30] We will discuss a topic that we have always heard, that [00:13:33] fathers and mothers, parents, and also our esteemed teachers [00:13:37] who are like our spiritual fathers and mothers, [00:13:40] they say they are the architects of a society [00:13:43] and they shape the goodness of a society, and they provide [00:13:46] a glittering path that exists in society, [00:13:50] they give us that map of the path. Regarding the role [00:13:54] of the family in raising children, let's start from here [00:13:57] by having a definition of education itself, what our [00:14:01] goal is from education. Well, education can be defined [00:14:04] as nurturing and teaching. So, when [00:14:07] we can teach children the way and manners, [00:14:11] that itself can be called education. So, in simpler [00:14:14] terms, we say the actions we want those whom we will [00:14:18] present to society in the future to be like, from the perspective of [00:14:21] upbringing. We pay attention [00:14:59] to parents. When parents are a role model for their children, [00:15:03] the first teacher and the first role model for their children are [00:15:06] parents. We can say that education begins [00:15:10] when the child is just born. So, when a child is born, [00:15:13] everything the parents do for their child [00:15:17] becomes their role model, their behavior. [00:15:19] From the perspective of values, if we discuss from the perspective of values. [00:15:23] The dependence of a person, the dependence of a human being [00:15:27] depends on how a human being [00:15:30] grows up, how a human being can move, and how a human being [00:15:34] will be in the future. A child is someone [00:16:24] that parents [00:16:27] depend on, and they see their future [00:16:31] in their children. So, we see [00:16:34] all those who live in a family, all parents who [00:16:38] are in a family, their efforts and hard work are for their children, [00:16:42] for the apple of their eye who are in the family. [00:16:45] So, a child can be defined as [00:16:49] the glory of life. Very good, Mohammad. [00:16:51] In our life's journey, which part of our [00:16:55] life that we live is very essential and important to parents? [00:16:59] Although all of it is important, there is a percentage of it that [00:17:03] is very valuable and families should [00:17:06] And then, after the age of seven, until [00:17:29] fourteen or thirteen, they should live like a servant in the house. That means [00:17:33] they should be given responsibilities, they should do work. They should [00:17:36] learn all the skills that exist in life. [00:17:39] They should overcome all the challenges that come their way. [00:17:43] They should overcome all challenges so that after the age [00:17:47] of fourteen, they can act as [00:17:50] a consultant in the family. They should perform their [00:17:53] duties. That means parents should ask them for advice [00:17:57] in all aspects of life, in all [00:18:00] the things they do, they should ask them for advice. [00:18:03] When a person goes through a period of kingship, [00:18:07] and then goes through a period of servitude, they will inevitably become a very good consultant in society. [00:18:10] So, I tell all parents that [00:18:14] the age up to seven years old for their children [00:18:17] should be given excessive attention, and in terms of [00:18:21] the facilities they have access to, they should [00:18:24] put them at their disposal so that they can use those facilities. [00:18:28] And the period that [00:18:31] we can say specifically for them needs [00:18:35] serious attention is adolescents who are over [00:18:38] seven years old. These are the ones who [00:18:42] enter society, because inevitably until the age of seven, they only live [00:18:46] in the family environment. But when they come after the age of seven, [00:18:49] they enter society, they make friends [00:18:52] and they face various people. [00:18:56] In this regard, the family must pay serious and fundamental [00:18:59] attention. Very good, and dear Islam also [00:19:02] beautifully addresses the first 7 years. [00:19:06] It is possible, except for our heart, which is [00:19:37] a piece of flesh, our hearts do not change. Everything changes, [00:19:41] from our teeth to our skin, to our epidermis. So, we are completely [00:19:44] refreshed. And up to fourteen years old, as Mr. Mohammadi [00:19:48] beautifully defined, I hope we move forward and continue this path [00:19:52] in the upbringing of our children. In terms of [00:19:56] upbringing itself, which matters are very [00:19:59] valuable? Which matters are important for parents to consider? [00:20:02] Look, when I categorized it, [00:20:06] when they enter society, especially the social community [00:20:10] called school, when they go to school, in terms of [00:20:13] upbringing, one thing is that if we want to advise [00:20:17] our children, advice has no effect. We ourselves must [00:20:21] be role models for them. So, [00:20:24] naturally, when a child sees [00:20:28] our actions and behaviors, [00:20:31] they are more likely to do what we do than what we [00:20:35] advise them to do. They do what we do, or we encourage them for something they do, we applaud them, they do that. [00:20:39] One of my friends was telling a story, he said we had a [00:20:43] two-and-a-half-year-old, three-year-old child. He said we had gotten [00:20:46] him a small piggy bank. When he brought money and put it in the piggy bank, [00:20:50] the whole family would encourage him, we would clap for him, [00:20:54] we would say "bravo" to him, we would say "masha'Allah" to him. [00:20:58] He said, "What did I do? This is a very good thing, I should always do it." And he said, when it was [00:21:01] night, he would take money again and go directly and put it in that piggy bank, [00:21:05] saving for himself. So, we can, from the perspective, [00:21:09] if we want to educate our child, [00:21:12] we should not do it through punishment and [00:21:16] through yelling at them and screaming. They take them [00:22:50] elsewhere for treatment. They create a problem [00:22:53] for their future. I hope families pay attention to this point. [00:22:57] That anger that comes from Satan is related to Satan, and [00:23:00] when you get angry, Satan becomes stronger and [00:23:04] overcomes you. Control yourself in those moments. Try not to hit [00:23:07] them. Explain to them. God willing, they will understand. [00:23:10] A child, if you tell them once that [00:23:14] it's a glass, they will ask a hundred more times. [00:23:16] They are inquisitive. They like to learn a lot. [00:23:20] Regarding punishment, you also said that [00:23:23] punishment can cause harm. We should [00:23:27] explain with kindness. [00:23:30] Most children try to be curious, they try [00:23:34] to explore a lot. They are inquisitive. As I said, [00:23:37] they ask about everything. Some people [00:23:41] prevent them from speaking, as we pointed out. They don't [00:23:44] give their children time to talk, especially children, they don't let them talk. [00:23:48] They don't allow them to make noise or when they go to parties, they tell them [00:23:52] not to joke. So, they prevent them from their childlike [00:23:55] jokes. Is this the right thing [00:23:59] to do? Does it have positive effects? Or are [00:24:02] we taking the wrong path and having negative [00:24:05] effects? Respected Mr. Ebadi, if we look at it from a psychological [00:24:09] perspective, we have private schools. Some parents come [00:24:12] and say, "My child is very calm at home." True. Calm. [00:24:16] Doesn't make noise. Doesn't fight. [00:24:20] Doesn't joke outside. I tell them, [00:24:22] "You should see a doctor because your child has a problem [00:24:26] that they are calm." Because at their age, [00:24:30] in childhood, that child [00:24:33] needs to be active, [00:24:36] that child needs to [00:24:40] express themselves, shout, joke, do things. Because [00:24:43] psychologically, if [00:24:47] they see [00:25:09] and connect with the outside environment, what is in the outside [00:25:13] environment? When the mother comes and opens the closet, what is inside? [00:25:17] What is it that she arranges? In terms of joking, [00:25:20] everything has its limits. Everything [00:25:24] should be done in moderation. We should not [00:25:27] overdo it so that it becomes a threat to them, nor should we be [00:25:30] so strict with them that they lose opportunities. So, we [00:25:34] should work so that they can make [00:25:38] opportunities for themselves from the things they do. [00:25:42] So, in terms of the hormones that exist [00:25:46] in a child, they must be handled. [00:25:56] But in a regular schedule, at regular times, with regular tasks that are prepared for them by the family, [00:26:00] they must do them. So, we do not prevent. [00:26:33] tied to its foot. He was surprised and said, "If you say [00:26:36] the elephant that is in the garden, how does it go? He didn't pay [00:26:40] attention. If the elephant pulls, the rope will break. [00:26:43] This curious man went and asked, "How [00:26:47] is it that you have tied this big elephant with this small rope?" [00:26:50] He said, "When it was small, we tied it with this rope, [00:26:54] and at that time, it wanted to try, it wanted to free [00:26:58] itself from the rope, but it didn't [00:27:00] have the strength. No matter how much it pulled, it couldn't free itself." [00:27:04] But when it grows up, that thought remains in its mind that [00:27:07] "I am not strong enough for this rope. I cannot pull the rope." [00:27:11] So, until it grows up, the rope remains with it. Now, when we [00:27:15] come to the part where we talk about children, [00:27:18] some parents put so much pressure on them [00:27:21] that they just have to be [00:27:24] locked in their room and for 24 hours they have to pay attention to studying, [00:27:28] reading books, doing research, and not having social relationships. [00:27:32] From my personal point of view, I believe that if a person [00:27:35] has studied a lot, has done a lot of research, [00:27:39] but cannot express themselves, cannot [00:27:42] explain it to four people in society, in front of four people, [00:27:46] in my opinion, that education is completely wrong. The education they have [00:27:49] received is completely wrong. We should [00:27:52] arrange programs for our children in such a way that they [00:27:56] have social connections, they can study, [00:28:00] they can do their daily tasks, and they are responsible. [00:28:03] So, we see some [00:28:07] families where they wake up early, their tea is ready for [00:28:11] their child, their clothes are ready, their books are ready. Let's put some responsibilities on the child [00:28:15] themselves to do some things themselves. [00:28:18] Mr. Abbas, let me tell you another story. [00:28:21] One of the dear mothers came to school [00:28:25] and said, "Mother, did you write the homework you gave to the student [00:28:28] yourself?" Their teacher brought the notebook to me in the office and said, [00:29:12] God has given both father and mother something. He has given anger to the father [00:29:15] and kindness to the mother. And the father is also [00:29:19] kind, but in most cases, it is necessary for the father to be angry [00:29:23] to guide. How negatively it turns out. [00:29:26] Some mothers' hiding things related to the issues [00:29:30] their children do. [00:29:32] Mothers, out of excessive kindness, often hide [00:29:36] things they shouldn't, and how negatively it affects [00:29:40] their lives. What should they do? [00:29:42] Respected sir, that's a very [00:29:46] good question. Look, [00:29:50] it's human nature that sometimes, parents, whether it's the father [00:29:53] or the mother, must. I mean, when [00:29:56] we define the glory of life, the beloved of life, [00:30:00] and that they should be given trust, [00:30:03] have good relationships, this is not just so that we completely [00:30:07] say that they should have fair behavior. [00:30:10] So, sometimes, I said from the age of seven to fourteen, they should be treated like a servant. [00:30:14] So, sometimes they should be angry with them, sometimes they should make them do [00:30:18] work, but they should do something that doesn't ruin the future [00:30:21] of their child, the future [00:30:24] of their beloved. [00:30:27] If I talk about mothers' hiding things, well, it's inevitable from [00:30:30] mothers because they are
