00:00One day is gonna come, you know, one of your children is gonna say,
00:09and sana naman yun, di ba, yung mom, dad, I'm having Noche Buena with my girlfriend.
00:18Will you allow me?
00:20Magpapaalam naman, di ba?
00:22What would you handle that?
00:24What would be your reply?
00:27I really don't know.
00:29Ang hirap, no?
00:30Ang hirap, eh. Ang hirap, tito, boy.
00:32But what I want to share is that very important yung time.
00:37Yung time kasi, it is something that you cannot take it back.
00:41Once na mawala yan, wala na yan.
00:43So sa bata, yun yung love nila.
00:46Because me, growing up, wala ako nung time with my parents.
00:49So because I don't have time with them, I don't have relationship with them.
00:53If I don't have relationship with them, wala ako nga yung influence sa kanila.
00:58So it's very important for us parents na magkaroon tayo ng time for us to have a relationship and then we can influence them.
01:06So kung anuman yung gagawin nila decisions, they would always think of ano yung influence sa akin yung mami at saka yung daddy.
01:12Because yun yung magmumold sa kanila once they go out there, pag nagkaroon na sila ng girlfriend or nagkaroon na sila ng asawa, they would always go back.
01:22Ano ba yung nag-influence sa akin?
01:23Was it the outside world or was it my family, yung mami ko or yung daddy ko?
01:27Yes.
01:28Kumusta yung pagkakaiba ng mga teenagers kayo as opposed to the teenagers today that you are exposed to?
01:35Medyo rebelyo sa ko, Tito Boy.
01:37Alam mo yung parang I wanted to assert my freedom.
01:40I wanted to assert my independence.
01:42I would say that I tried a lot of things that my parents will definitely not approve of and that there were also a lot of things that I kept from them.
01:53Alam mo yan, parang kumbaga Tito Boy, I try to make it look like I'm a good child.
01:58But in reality, syempre influence sa mga kaibigan, ganyan.
02:02May mga sinubukan din akong alam kong mga bawal, Tito Boy.
02:04Like, I was tumataka sa school, nagkapat ng class, Tito Boy.
02:13Alam mo yan, and I was really so scared because my mom was really very strong.
02:18And tinatakot niya talaga, pag ginawa mo yan, ito yung mga mga mga yan.
02:20Mom was stronger in that sense?
02:22Yes.
02:22Than dad, no?
02:23Yes.
02:23But compare yourself to your children now, yung mga teenagers niyo.
02:28Alam mo, Tito Boy, we would always say that to each other.
02:31Like, you know, our kids are great.
02:32Ang pabait nila, Tito Boy.
02:34They're not perfect, of course.
02:36They make mistakes.
02:37But one thing that we're very happy about with our children is that they're very open to us.
02:43We talk about everything.
02:44We talk about their heartaches, may nagugustuhan.
02:48You know, there was one time that Nathan was sharing with me that she likes someone.
02:52Tapos yung itura ko talaga, Tito Boy yung, ah!
02:55Pero sa loob talaga, parang, ah!
02:57Tapos yung reaction ko talaga, parang, okay, okay.
02:59And then I really practice not to say anything that might offend him in a way na ayaw niya nang mag-share sa akin.
03:08And we would constantly try our best to do that with our children.
03:11So even when they do something that's not good, they tell us.
03:15There was one time that, you know, one of our children went through something that was very not right.
03:23And they open up to their dad.
03:26And you know, when we were talking about it, sabi ni Vijay,
03:28I can't, you know, nung bata ako, ito yung mga bagay na hindi kong hayam sabihin sa mga magulang ko.
03:34So the fact na nasabi niya sa akin yung bagay na yun,
03:38it says a lot about, you know, what kind of parents we are, Tito Boy.
03:43And we're really very blessed for that open communication that we have with you.
03:47Yeah, that's a testament of how you are raising your children.
03:51Ikaw, Vijay?
03:52Well, Tito Boy, same thing.
03:54Careless.
03:55You know, I had a son when I was 17.
03:58Kasi growing up in the family...
04:00Dito ito, Vijay?
04:01Dito ito, yes.
04:02Hindi sa...
04:03Hindi sa states.
04:03Yeah, grew up broken family.
04:05So I was looking for love on different places, different people, wrong people.
04:09So careless, nagkamali, mapusok.
04:13So versus now, sa kanila, wala, Tito Boy, wala pa sa kalingking.
04:18Sa mga nagawa ko before.
04:20Kaya I'm so blessed na kahit hindi sila perfect eh.
04:25Pero kahit nakikita ko na nagkakamali sila ng mga gano'n, okay lang.
04:29Kumbaga, I still give that grace sa kanila na...
04:32Siyempre, minsan as a father, di ba parang kailangan mong disiplinahin.
04:35Pero binibigay ko pa rin yung grace na yun.
04:38Kasi parang sa ikaw, ang bait nyo pa rin.
04:40Kaya isa laro.
04:42Shikam!
04:47Kaya isa laro.
