Dad Cries With Joy After His Kids Surprise Him With Brand New SUV

In Philippine culture, family comes first. Filipino parents nurture their children well into adulthood. Filipino kids see their dad or mom as role models.

Many Filipinos continue to live at their family’s home even after they themselves have gotten married. Filipino parents usually want to help their grown kids save up a bit first before they strike out on their own. They also serve as default babysitters for their grandchildren, whom they enjoy spoiling with all kinds of treats.

Eventually, when it’s the kids who have the capacity to support their parents, they either give them regular financial support or they have their parents live with them.

Barring extreme conflict within the family, many Filipino care for their parents until their final days. It’s their way of giving back to the person who gave them life.

Most Filipino parents won’t hesitate to make sacrifices so that their children would have a better life. That’s why there are a lot of Filipinos who seek employment in other countries. They endure loneliness so they can earn enough to send their children to the best schools and provide them with all the comforts that they can afford.
