Finally, the workshop recommends several points, the most important of which is the role of the family, as the father and mother have a major role in monitoring the children and building a healthy and sound relationship between them based on the principle of mutual trust and respect, giving value to their presence among them, listening to their problems in case they are exposed to pressures in their lives, making them feel that they are the support and worthy of being relied upon, and developing the skills of young people by opening educational and training centers and holding seminars and courses that would develop young people and integrate them into society.
