Parents!! Parents !!! Concerns and Problems with

I am sorry to hear of your troubles at home. But it is good that you see how this is affecting your brothers. Your parents seem too involved with their own problems to notice this. It is up to you to help guide them into being the type of men they should be. Good luck bro.

Have faith in God , try to talk to ur mom or dad or relatives about the solutions. Try to communicate with ur family members with positive attitude . U may talk to a marriage councellor.

Hmm will probably sound like a stupid question but this question is aimed at the girls mostly although it could apply to boys too.

Just wondering, to what extent do you think parents should be allowed to tell their children what they can and cannot do?? Basically, I just hate having to ask permission from my parents to do little things like going out with mates, tooooo errr places likeeeee cinemas, shopping in other cities etc, and what especially gets to me is when they say no, especially since I am now an adult aged 22. So what do you think girls? Do you have to get permission from your parents to go out and have fun or do they consider you an adult and let you do what you want when you want?

salams sis..

First ask whether or not Allah would allow you to go any such place, and if the answer is no, then it shouldn't matter whether you're parents care or not

Secondly.. with regards to this, i like Ali Ibn Abi Talib's quote...

"Sab'3un ameer, wa Sab'3un Aseer, wa Sab'3un Wazeer... thumma tusaahibuhu wa yusaahibuka"

Seven years Prince, seven a prisoner and seven an advisor/minister.
Then you befriend him and he befriends you.

i.e. in the first 7 years, the child should grow up with leadership qualities and have courage and confidence in himself.

The next seven, that's when you take care of him and the 'do's and dont's" kick in because his intellect starts to build up etc, also means you look out for who he hangs out with and make sure he's not under bad influence etc.

The final seven years (14-22), is when you treat him like your advisor/minister, i.e. you give him some freedom and test how he reacts to it, and also seek his council and advise to give him the feeling of responsibility and maturity. You also encourage him to be self-suficient in terms of work and income etc.


After that, the parents shouldn't interfere with his life, he becomes "equal" to the father. The father can advise if he learns about something wrt his son. But he can't meddle in his private affairs etc.


but really, take a good look at my first paragraph inshalah

tc salams

awww jazakaAllah bro.

Ok what really gets to me is how I get treated like a child. Im the eldest. So they really overprotective. And sometimes I feel they dont trust me. And they have no reason not to trust me. I just hate the whole 'Where you going, Who you going with, What you gonna do, and When will you be back?''. Just end up losing it.

lol sis.. i agree it does get annoying esp when you're doin nufn wrong.

but perhaps in ur case their issue is only with cinema and shopping coz of all the dirty pics/scenes n stuff that are all over the place? in which case i guess u could understand where they're coming from?

But if its for even things like visiting good friends etc.. who knos maybe if u get married they'll leave the stress 2 ur trusting husband? lol

all the best insh.

today mum n dad had an argument and me bein the woc i am snapped big tym at ma dad n gave ma mum silent treatment 4 a bit, I HAAAATTTTTEEEEEEEE IT WHEN THEY NOT ON TALKIN TERMS!!! THEY SO CHILDISH SOMETIMES!! URGH!

pretty interesting question sis...

Actually since childhood till now....even thou i am one year younger then u sis....but i still and will continue to ask permission from my mum e.g to go to islamic lectures, going out with mates and even buying stuff adn even going to bath......lol.....its one of my habits/duty that i do soo...

its not something that am forced in to..or pressured...its my will...alhamdulilah...

the bond that i have with my is very unique and strong....i'll do anything for her....wallahi...i have seen my mother faced many things in life.....that i have to learn to understand the purpose of life and the role of my parents.....

and not forgetting underneath our mothers feet lies heaven..how can i possibly reject that sis?....

shes been thru alot for me...how can i not do small things for?....which i will be rewarded later inshAllah.....

the term freedom, being independent, adult....hasnt hit me yet or never will....coz am still my mums little baby...i wish i'd be that......because shes my noor in my life...if my noor disappears....am in darkness....

if i ask my mum for premission i feel proud, comfy, happy of myself...coz am involving my ammi in every part of my life..every sec, min, day....how can i not?......shes my friend....

I just want to be INDEPENDENT, do what I want to when I want to. Am I asking for too much?

sorry 2 hear bro

but mayeb its better to somehow get them in one room and put the cards on the table n say "parents, what is up?"

it will work insh, coz im pretty sure they wouldn't want you knowing why xactly they're in that situation, so they'd prob be forced to show a diplomatic side and play it down and soon after get back to normal...

coz if u take a go at them individually, then they'll start accusing each other of being the cause of you're unhapiness :X which only mkaes it worse

my parents are like that aswell bt i'm in my mid-late teens lol

i spoke to my mum about it the other day (coz my mates were planning to going out) and she sed to me taht instead of focusing on small things like going out with my mates and persuading my dad to say yes to them, to start focusing on the big things like uni etc and then the small things will come after the big things. which i think is a good point.

My dad doesnt say no to me going out so long as its within limits which is cool by me. Just ma mum whos a little OTT - the only reason Im asking this question is because I was talking to a friend and its like all your friends are allowed to do whatever whenever and then theres you whos treated like a child, anyways she was like dont your parents trust you which got me thinking...
