“Sa akin lang itong opinion: No need na magpaprescon pa,” Fr. Rapayla wrote in his post.

He then talked about how parents should set themselves as role models for their children.

“Parents must set themselves as exemplary models for their children, as it is within the family that the foundation of values and love is laid,” he said.

“Proverbs 22:6 counsels, "Train up a child in the way he should go; even when he is old, he will not depart from it." By embodying virtues and love, parents impart essential lessons that their children carry throughout their lives,” Fr. Rapayla added.

The priest then discussed how children should be to their parents, saying that they should demonstrate “care, respect, and love.”

“Similarly, children should reciprocate this respect towards their parents, learning these values at home. Demonstrating care, respect, and love toward their parents is also a way of honoring God, reflecting the teachings and values imparted by their parents,” he said.

Citing a passage in the Holy Book, Fr. Rapayla reminded children to honor their father and mother, though also emphasized there should be mutual respect and love.

“Ephesians 6:1-2 states, ‘Children, obey your parents in the Lord, for this is right. 'Honor your father and mother'—which is the first commandment with a promise.’ Through mutual respect and love, families can nurture a robust foundation of faith and understanding,” the priest said.

Near the end of his post, Fr. Rapayla encouraged everyone to just celebrate the twin-gold victory of Caloy.

“Let us celebrate the remarkable achievements of Caloy, who, despite discouraging comments, persevered with faith and optimism, striving to do his best for the Philippines. Congratulations, Caloy!” Fr. Rapayla said.
