Bahá'í Parenting

"…from infancy, the child must be watched over and taught."

— 'ABDU'L-BAHÁ

A personal collection of resources on parenting, drawn from the Bahá'í Writings.

"It is extremely difficult to teach the individual and refine his character once puberty is passed. By then, as experience has shown, even if every effort be exerted to modify some tendency of his, it all availeth nothing… Therefore it is in early childhood that a firm foundation must be laid."
