What is the difference between care and education?? Very important tips and guidance

 Hello to all dear visitors to my child’s world , we find that many parents confuse care and education, and not distinguishing between them may expose the Muslim family to confusion and collapse due to the parents’ interest in the matter of care and they think that it is the same as education, so come together to know the difference between them:

Following up on children, paying attention to feeding them, clothing them, making them look good, securing their housing, ensuring their education, and fulfilling their duties is called care, not education.

What is education then?

Education is working on five things:

First: Building convictions:

It includes doctrine, principles, values, ambitions, and understanding of life.

Second: Directing interests:

It includes what concerns a person and how he spends his free time.

Third: Skills development:

Various types: sports, artistic, mental, social, administrative, scientific.

Fourth: Understanding the rules of relationships:

Who are you friends with? Who do you avoid? How to build relationships?

Fix it or terminate it?

Fifth: Choosing role models:

They are the ideals that people look up to in order to become like them, as well as understanding the laws that govern dealing with role models.

These five are called (education) and the others are care.

Part of the care can be delegated. As for education, it cannot be delegated, because it is the duty of the mother and father first, and loyal educators help them in that.

How to raise children in a correct Islamic manner:

Instructions for dealing with children:

The personality of boys and girls begins to emerge in the second year of their birth, so parents must begin with them by consolidating the Islamic faith and love for God Almighty and dealing with Islamic etiquette such as honesty, generosity, generosity, giving, and helping others, provided that this is done in a soft and gentle manner. If parents use violence and punishment in this regard, it will often lead to adverse results, and excessive pampering will also lead to negative results, and the best thing about that is mediation.

Cultivating love, kindness, and the love of goodness for all in the hearts of children through everyone’s love for them. Children need to be the object of the love and compassion of others, as the child is nourished emotionally by what he finds from his mother, father, and his family in particular. He is also physically nourished by food that develops his body and stimulates It has the warmth of life.

Parents should not ignore their children’s need for play, adventure, and risk, through the activities they undertake to test their abilities, gain more abilities and life experiences, and overcome the difficulties they may face in their lives, as some parents go to extremes in preventing their children from playing for fear of losing their lives. When this affects their perception and learning, as one of the most important means of education is learning through play, and through play, children’s abilities and knowledge grow, and through it their awareness opens.

Noticing the talents and abilities of children, paying attention to their aspects of creativity, nurturing and developing them in a way that suits them, and providing what is necessary for them as much as possible, will benefit the children greatly.

Parents must realize their children’s need to provide moral security, as children realize that they always need someone to stand behind them and support them. They feel a constant need for someone to protect them, take care of them, and help them in times of need.
