Locsin, a mother of three, admitted that she discouraged her daughters from following in her footsteps. Her protective stance stems from her own experience of not being able to complete her formal education.
“Kasi ako hindi ako nakatapos ng college; hanggang high school lang ako. Gusto ko yung mga anak ko pag meron silang natapos, magiging proud sila sa na accomplish nila–– achievement nila. Malaking bagay yun na may pinagaralan ka,” she explained.
