The real solution is to put the good kids in madrassah, the bad kids- I don't know, read Riyadh us-Saliheen with them for a little while before bed; recite Qur'an with them, tell them stories of the Prophets- whatever it is that works. Not having had any children yet, I would not know...

But a friend of mine, and I, we're filling in for real teachers at a weekend school... it's crazy. Some of the kids my friend had, they were age 9 or 10 or 11, and only one person in the whole class knew what the 6 articles of eeman are and what the 5 pillars of Islam are. I'm doing the older class, and none of the sisters wear proper hijab (most don't wear it at all), they all wear tight jeans, and most of them don't know anything. I don't know what to do, but like I said, I talk to them for like an hour a week and they're on their own for 167. What am I even supposed to do to counteract everything else?

...seriously, any ideas?
