What is a Filipino Global Child? How can we raise a child with local roots and global dreams? Why is it important? What challenges will this global world hold for them? How can we prepare our children to survive and thrive in a global world? How do we raise a truly Filipino global child away in our new adopted home? Is that possible even? Should we want to raise such a child? Why? Endless questions, let's find answers together.
It's one of the most challenging, demanding yet rewarding jobs one can ever have. If anyone told you parenting is easy, don't believe them! Think twice, thrice, multiple times before you decide to get into it. Scared? You have every reason to be but don't you worry, parents swear it's the best thing that ever happened to them.
Unesco describes the importance of education aptly. Education is a human right, it is a catalyst for human development, it improves one's quality of life, it is vital for economic development and political stability and democracy. Parents believe that it is the basis for lifelong learning and that it is essential to provide children with quality education in whatever way, method, approach we see fit for their family. Parents, teachers, kid-lovers may share their thoughts and learn from each other re this important aspect in children's lives. More than ever, the entire village that we form to support, impact and help raise our kids should be in sync. There simply isn't any way around it---We must work together.
Share them here freely. Family-oriented and kid-focused matters pls. Respect for other people's opinions and beliefs is important when you tread in these deep waters.
