Call For Articles: PPBC 8th Edition

Alright, it is my turn this month. I apologise for not coming up with a topic for this month's first installment at an earlier time, but you know how busy we can get as parents. :)

Being parents, we want our children to grow up as people of good character. It is our jobs to guide our kids in the right direction so that they may be productive members of society. With all the influence of peers and media these days, that task can become quite challenging. So now I pose this question to you: What values or lessons in life do you want to instill in your children, and why? Please name only 3.

Here are just a few guide questions to help you get started on your article:

  • Are there values that your parents instilled in you that you want to pass on to your kids? Are there ones which you do not want your kids to take on?

  • The media and your children's peers play a great role in your child's value formation. How do you go about telling your kids what and what not to take on? Where do you draw the line?

    The deadline for submission of articles for this edition is on the 14th of September, Sunday, 10 PM (Manila time). I will be rounding up all submitted articles and post my summary on the following day, the 15th of September. For those who would want to submit their articles, just leave a comment on this blog post and make sure to indicate the URL where your article may be found.
