Navigating the Transition into Adolescence

On December 5, 2021, MCK hosted a workshop on guiding parents through the transition from childhood to teenage years.

As our children grow into themselves and find their individuality, there are many obstacles to navigate: instilling faith, influences, transmitting values, modeling positive behavior, and more.

In this interactive environment, parents had the opportunity to ask questions and interact with other parents and the speakers. Guest speakers included Dr. Suzy Ismail and Ustadha Zaynab Ansari, who taught practical ways to understand the challenges our children may face, as well as methods to develop a respectful, cooperative, and Prophetic model of raising your child.
