We Filipinos eat with our hands, drive crazy on the road, point with our lips
I will cut to the chase since I have to work in a few hours. Filipinos are like any other culture- there are good ones and bad ones. And some individuals are born with overbearing crazy ones as parents. Culture is important however we should learn how to change with the times especially when you move to North America. For those overbearing parents, please stop trying to make your kids live out your failed dreams. Yes they appreciate the hard work you do for them but make them grow as their own individuals. Filipinos whose parents are supportive are LUCKY. And please paradisevalley858 do not degrade how the whites raise their kids it makes you a racist with that awful comment. Mind your own family. I always hear my relatives say that its a hard life in North America, that you have to slave your life away and be the stereotypical cleaner, nanny, care aid, etc. Please don't think that way- temporarily yes but improve yourself otherwise you look like you have no ambition at all in life. I am a Canadian who grew up in the Philippines and I can relate to many of the comments here. There is hope. Live your dreams. Salamat po.— January 16, 2013 5:28 a.m.
