Furthermore, Coleen said that children should be allowed to respectfully question their parents so that they will gain understanding and wisdom instead of just being forced to do what their parents tell them to do.

“Kailangan open ka talaga to learn, kasi kung close-minded ka as a parent, mapapalayo sa ‘yo ‘yung bata. Kailangan open ka, kasi tao ‘yan, eh. We’re all different as people. You have to treat that child as a little human being. ‘Yung respect na binibigay mo sa kaniya, ganun din ‘yung respect na binibigay mo sa mga adults…

“I think that’s something that lot of us forget or we overlook. Na-experience ko rin ‘yun, noong bata kami, ‘pag magsalita ka, or if you question certain things, sumasagot ka na sa magulang.

“Kailangan, as a parent, treat it as, kailangan matuto ng bata. Kailangan mong turuan. In the future, iniisip ko, kung may mga itatanong siya, kung may rules ako at iki-question niya, ii-explain ko nang mabuti. Hindi ‘yung basta sinabi ko, gawin mo. Ayoko ng ganoon,” Coleen said.
