Mom vs Dad

ctv101103 @ctv101103 (859) • Philippines 1 Mar 07

Why do you think children favor 1 parent over the other? My daughter seems to favor her dad over me. I don't really mind but it sometimes bothers me. I spend as much time as I can with her. We do lots of activities together but...

jrs404 One thing that made me decide that my husband is IT is his family. He grew up in a close-knit happy family. I knew he'll do the same to his own family that's why I knew I got a good man.

What is your college course and why did you choose that particular course?

ethanmama @ethanmama (1745) • Philippines 19 Feb 07

Is it really what YOU want? Or is it what your parents want for you? Did you choose that particular course because that was what you wanted? Or because it had a high income generating potential?

Who do you think are REAL heroes?

ethanmama @ethanmama (1745) • Philippines 16 Feb 07

For me, real heroes are people who put the needs of others before his/her own needs or wants, without any personal agenda. Off the top of my head, these are heroes: - Every loving parent who has put his/her child's needs before...
