A 21st-century orphan is a child whose parents are alive but might as well not. This is because the parents neglect their children\u2019s interests. When the child comes to the father with an exciting story, the father says \u2018go away I&#8217;m busy!\u2019. And so it should come as no surprise to any parent that your child has left you.\n\nOur youth have become <em><strong>orphans<\/strong><\/em> without ever having to lose their parents. It is a saddening truth. The parents don&#8217;t want their issues, they go to the next sheikh to talk to their child. They ask the sheikh to tell their children about the obligations of the children to their parents. The parents don&#8217;t want to acknowledge their obligations and duties to their kids. Their children actually despise their parents, simply because the parents don&#8217;t want to take the initiative to get to know their children.\n\n<a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/onepathnetwork.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/21st-century-orphans.jpeg?ssl=1\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-8792 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/onepathnetwork.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/21st-century-orphans.jpeg?resize=300%2C188&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"21st Century Orphans\" width=\"300\" height=\"188\" data-wp-pid=\"8792\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/onepathnetwork.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/21st-century-orphans.jpeg?resize=300%2C188&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/onepathnetwork.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/21st-century-orphans.jpeg?resize=400%2C251&amp;ssl=1 400w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/onepathnetwork.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/10\/21st-century-orphans.jpeg?w=680&amp;ssl=1 680w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a>\n\nEven when parents aren&#8217;t working, they are at home on their phones, TV, computer. So even when they aren&#8217;t busy they still are busy. Parenting is a full-time job, it is the best investment you can ever make. Unfortunately, paying attention to our children has become our second job. So when parents say \u2018we need to work on our youth\u2019, what about you brother\/sister? Don&#8217;t the parents need to work too?\n\nThe religion that the parent practices\u00a0the religion the youth will practice. So no matter how many Quran memorisation schools you put your child in, he\/she will only practice the Quran you practice. Your child is a reflection of you. So do not let your child think of him\/her self as an orphan.","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Have Our Children Become Orphans?
