MANUEL V. PANGILINAN ON PARENTING

Photobucket
I recently came across the blog of one of my husband's friends, Karrots Nazareno. Coincidentally, my mom was supposed to nickname me Carrots, but ended up calling me Candy. Going back to Karrots, she has interesting accounts on Philippine pop culture and her funny everyday experiences (plus, I love her expressions!). One of my favorite posts is a speech delivered by one of the country's billionaires, Manuel V. Pangilinan (who kicked my husband's arse in badminton years back, ha ha) for his alma mater. I feel it's relevant and intriguing because it's about "Parenting for the Future," but as expressed by a man who is not a parent. As expected, it is brilliant and moving. Takes me back to the time I interviewed him.
