In the overall care of the child, there are many areas that require attention, some of which are:
- Soothing a Crying Child
- Teething
- Bed Wetting
- Restoring the child to good health when he/she is sick
- Stopping the child from eating bad things
- Accompanying the child to speak
- Accompanying the child to walk
- Keeping the child safe and protected
Dear Child outlines recommended prayers (du’as, suras) to recite for all of these areas of attention.
