        We live in a digital age\u2014we can\u2019t raise our children in caves. But neither should we leave their hearts in the hands of algorithms.<\/p>

        Children are not addicted to screens because they\u2019re bad.
        They\u2019re addicted because no one taught them how to live without needing it.<\/p>

        Let us raise children who know that silence is beautiful. That salah is peace. That their self-worth is not tied to how many \u201clikes\u201d they get. Let them grow up knowing that the real world\u2014with its faith, family, struggle, and love\u2014is far more meaningful than the virtual one.<\/p>

        And let us never forget:<\/strong>
        We will be asked not just what we gave our children, but what we allowed to take them away.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
