SUMMARY:TOGETHER WE CARE FOR THE CHILD WE SHARE: A Thought-Provoking Discussion Where School And Home Stand As One
DESCRIPTION:Together We Care for the Child We Share – Watch Webinar \nGlobal Islamic Parenting Network (GIPNet) – Inaugural Webinar \nThe inaugural Global Islamic Parenting Network (GIPNet) webinar marked an important milestone in addressing a growing global concern: the widening disconnect between parents and schools in nurturing children. Moderated by Kathryn Jones\, the session brought together voices from education leadership\, corporate transformation\, and parenting advocacy to reframe this relationship—from blame and criticism to shared responsibility . \nAt its heart\, the webinar reinforced one powerful truth: children flourish when the key adults in their lives are aligned\, not divided. \n  \nCore Theme\nFrom Blame to Partnership in Raising Children \nModern parenting and education face unprecedented challenges—time pressure\, technology overload\, rising expectations\, and emotional fatigue. The panelists agreed that the solution is not merely better systems\, but better relationships\, rooted in trust\, compassion\, and a child-centred mindset guided by Islamic values. \n  \nPanelist Highlights & Quotable Insights\nZaffar Ahmed – School Principal & Global Islamic Schools Leader \nFocus: Reframing the Parent–School Relationship \nZaffar Ahmed emphasized that parents and teachers are not adversaries\, but natural allies in a child’s life. \n“There are only two groups of people who truly want a child to have a better life than themselves: the parents—and the teachers.” \nKey insights from his session included: \n\nParents and schools ultimately share the same aspiration: raising wholesome children with strong values who can serve humanity.\nTeachers invest emotionally in students and often care deeply about their success beyond academics.\nSchools should intentionally design welcoming\, transparent communication channels—not just to address problems\, but to celebrate positives.\nExplaining the why behind school policies helps parents become collaborators rather than critics.\n\n“Children listen with their eyes far more than with their ears—they learn from what we model\, not what we preach.” \n  \nAhmad Fakhri – Corporate Leader & Parenting Strategist\nFocus: The ‘Greater Village’ Ecosystem \nAhmad Fakhri expanded the discussion beyond school and home\, introducing the idea of a Greater Village—an ecosystem involving parents\, schools\, community leaders\, and the wider Ummah. \n“Raising a child is not a private struggle; it is a communal responsibility.” \nHis key contributions included: \n\nChildren are shaped by multiple layers: home\, school\, community\, nation\, and global Ummah.\nConflict between parents and teachers drains energy that should be invested in the child.\nHe introduced a practical rapport-building framework for parents (the “5S” approach)\, focusing on presence\, tone\, consistency\, and emotional safety.\nWarned against destructive behaviours such as shaming\, snapping\, shutting down\, and severing relationships.\n\n“Children copy conduct\, not curriculum—and they notice how we treat each other.” \n  \nJamilah Samian – Parenting Author & Educator\nFocus: Mindset Shifts for Parents \nJamilah Samian highlighted how modern parenting has become increasingly transactional\, especially in fee-paying school environments. \n“Sending our children to good schools is not a guarantee of good character—alignment at home matters more.” \nHer reflections and guidance included: \n\nEarlier generations held deep respect for teachers\, creating emotional safety for children.\nToday\, some parents unconsciously treat schools like service providers expected to “fix” children.\nParents remain the first and primary educators\, while teachers receive children already shaped by home values.\nIntroduced the concept of technoference—technology disrupting parent-child relationships through divided attention.\n\n“When children feel unheard at home\, no amount of schooling can compensate for that loss.” \nShe also offered practical strategies to manage disagreements: \n\nNever allow the child to become a messenger between adults.\nPause before reacting emotionally.\nResolve issues adult-to-adult with teachers.\nBuild relationships with teachers early—before problems arise.\n\nShared Reflections & Takeaways \nAcross the discussion\, several common insights emerged: \n\nChildren suffer most when adults are in conflict—and thrive when adults are aligned.\nCharacter education begins with how adults behave\, not just what they teach.\nTechnology must be managed intentionally to protect relationships\, not replace them.\nRespect\, compassion\, and consistency are the true foundations of effective education.\n\n“Collaboration\, not confrontation\, is the only sustainable path forward for our children.” — Collective Panel Insight \nSummary Infographics \n \nCall to Action \n\nParents: Reflect on your daily presence—your tone\, attention\, and consistency shape your child more than instructions.\nSchools: Create communication that invites partnership\, not defensiveness.\nParents & Educators Together: Anchor decisions in compassion\, focus on the child\, and model the values you wish to see.\n\n“Together\, we care for the child we share.” \nThis inaugural webinar sets the foundation for GIPNet’s ongoing mission: to rebuild trust\, alignment\, and shared purpose between homes and schools—locally and globally. \nWatch the full webinar : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mXfoADSBZIU
