They fill in for us in conducting our children who are tired from school with compassion. They are the real heroes of our community.<\/p>\n<p>So as a parent, understand their role and give them the respect they deserve. If you are told that your child did not do homework, instead of making it seem like their fault, understand their value and what they are teaching your child today will be lessons your child will hold on to for the rest of their lives.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Mumtaz Moosa Saley | mumtazs@me.com 23 November 2022 | 12:00 PM CAT 1 min read A few weeks back, whilst interacting on social media, I asked people why they are thankful to their child\u2019s madrassa teachers, and the responses were simply amazing.
