In this episode I talk about conflicts between parents and young children. There will be conflicts sometimes but how we solve them will affect our children and our relationship with our children a lot. Small children develop their own will and this is an important process that we as parents need to understand and support them in. It takes a lot of patience!

In this episode I speak about the importance of understanding our children if we want them to listen to and understand us. Behind a child´s behaviour there is a need. We need to try to understand what our child is thinking, feeling and needing to be able to meet the need and build a closer relationship.

In this episode my guest Sheikh Mahamed Dahir (part 3) speaks about the importance of being there for your children, to know them and understand that the culture they grow up in is different from the one we as parents grew up in. The parents are important examples for the children and that is a big responsibility. To raise children in a new culture is a big challenge.

In this episode my guest Sheikh Mahamed Dahir (part 2) speaks about the importance of good character. That every parent should be a good role model to their children so that they develop a good character. He takes examples from the Quran and Hadith and nature to show the importance of being kind and use kind words with our children.

In this episode my guest Sheikh Mahamed Dahir is talking about how important it is to take good care of our children that are a precious gift from God. To raise children we need to be present, have patience and make the right priorities.

The words have powerIn this episode I speak about how the way we talk affect our children. Negative comments can hurt deeply and encouragement can have a big and positive impact. As a parent it is important that we think about how we speak with our children because it will make a big difference now and in the future.

In this episode we talk about one of the new laws in Sweden 2022. The law is called "lex lilla Hjärtat" (law little Heart) and the reason for the law is very tragic. I get many questions about the new law from Somali parents who are worried in vain. After listening to this episode I hope that many parents will feel less worried and also understand why this law is needed. No child should be treated like the girl called Lilla Hjärtat.
