Riveting, touching, and oh so true! Thank you Ate Gi for this enlightening, inspiring, and evocative presentation. It's the most engaging, funny, and entertaining vlog I've ever encountered on youtube--a gem, no more, no less!
This is so touching to hear from a mother's perspective. When one of my Dad's friends from the US, asked kung pwede magpasundo and makitulog overnight sa amin (before sya umuwi sa province the following day), nagulat sya because I accompanied my Dad. Never daw gagawin sa kanya ng daughter nya yun. Makipagmeet nga lang daw for lunch date, hindi na pumapayag ang anak nya kasi hassle to drive and may mga aasikasuhin kahit weekend. So halos hindi sya pinagbibigyan ng daughter nya na makipagmeet and kwentuhan. And naiinggit daw sya na I went out of my way na umuwi sa bahay ng parents ko ng 10pm para lang may kasama ang Dad ko magdrive hanggang madaling araw, kahit nagre-rent naman ako mag-isa. Naiyak ako kasi mejo naiiyak din sya because one his regrets is hindi sila close ng daughter nya. Nagtry naman daw sya pero iba ang naging upbringing and peer influence ng daughter nya in America. Whereas, ako, is hindi naman need pakiusapan pero once nalaman ko na mag-isa Dad ko, I just did it out of love. I just felt sad na his sacrifices seem to be repayed with indifference and he seemed to be a malambing Dad who tries to keep in touch with his daughter. Pero ang Dad ko is sobrang tahimik lang and hindi malambing, yet we often keep in touch and update each other with our ganap in life and whenever we meet, kahit madalas naman, I still hug him and my Mom na para bang years kami hindi nagkikita. Anyway, my parents have both already passed on and I'm glad that I did the things I did and that my brother and I spoilt them with local and international travels and concerts and even material things (even luxury bags like LV na they didn't ask for but were happy to receive), kasi maigsi lang pala ang ibinigay sa kanila na buhay. ❤ They didn't even get to retire because they passed away at ages 59 and 61. But I'm left eith so many wonderful memories with them that I can come back to until the end of my days.♥️ Sorry, napahaba ang kwento ko😅
awww! i love your story! thanks for sharing. You've been such a wonderful daughter, someone every parent would wish to have. I'm so sorry that you're parents passed away so soon. so appreciate your time watching and sharing.
May similarity nang konti situation natin, pareho din kaming nurse na mag asawa and we have an only son that we raised here in the US, ganyan din anak namin , when he finished high school we tried to influence him to take up medical field but instead he went into software engineering . I warned him to study hard and stay focused sa awa nang Diyos he was able to finish bachelor’s degree in software engineering, at that time job was scarce and experience is hard to come by so I pushed him to enlist in the Air Force. Since he joined the military he has been very disciplined that we were surprised that when he is home his room is very orderly and his bed is well made. He does his own laundry, fold and iron his own clothes and helps us do things at home. It was night and day coz before he mostly spends his day playing computer games and watching anime movies and his room was so messy. Total transformation and I am so thankful that I pushed him to join. Now he loves his job in the Air Force and he has been traveling a lot mostly overseas for his assignments.
That crossed my mind, too. What if my son joins the service? It would probably change and structure his life too. So glad to hear things turned oiut so well for your son. thanks for watching!!
Not all children are hard to raise up in America, even in the Philippines they’re hard raise and no manners at all cause by the social media. Let’s lift up everything to God when it comes to raising our children!
@@noeminoemi1350its easier for you to say that because you’re not here and in our shoes as parents. At first that’s how we thought we’d like things to happen & do. But not possible all the time as our children are human too, growing & maturing. Until the time they explained to us that they cannot always apply the Pinoy values & ways they want us to instill with them. Not that they no longer respectful on us but they now have their own choices & decisions to make. And that made us understood that we brought them to a country with diff cultures & values, lifestyles & views in life, so living here means to adapt & adjust to their system or music of life or else mahihiraoan ka mag adjust sa maraming changes ng buhay apart from where you grew up. Dapat prepared ka to accept all the changes sa way ng family living & how to deal with your kids changes too. They are now adapted & influenced by this country’s culture.
So true, actually comparing their generations to ours, ang laki ng difference. Tama ka Ate G, keep on saving. Kasi hindi tayo forever healthy and forever wealthy👍🏼 Pwede ka ng gumawa ng short movie, you are so great. Ang sarap pakinggan ng voice mo😍😊🥰
this is how i am with my children. i dont have a high salary so kids took a loan fr the govt. oldest got 2 bachelors n the youngest last yr in university. very thankful they take their studies seriously. also, i said to them for you to save money, stay home everything is free. enjoyed watching your vlog, salamat.
This is so true. I have a 13 yr old son and a 10 y.o daughter. Good thing before kami Umalis ng Pinas me and my wife were able to instill Filipino values sa kanila and they are good kids. Just turned 2yrs here in the United States 🇺🇸 this June and while watching your videos nakaka iyak. Me and my wife are also both RN’s. Watched your videos and i’m learning a lot.
Na encapsulate po ninyo ang buhay ng mga pinoy sa amerika. Saktong sakto po ang kuwento ng buhay ninyo sa amin. Halos lahat ng pinoy na nandito, ganyan na ganyan din po ang mga kuwento! I agree with your thoughts and observations sa mga anak! Parehas na parehas po!
Salamat po Ate Gi for sharing your story on how you raised your children in US. Meron din kaming mga kids maliliit pa sila 4 and 5 years old. Ramdam ko yung sadness na someday alam namin na aalis din sila sa bahay and will be independent at wala kaming magagawa mag asawa kundi to support them on their own life journey. Sa amin naman we are raising our kids as bilingual, purong tagalog ang usapan namin sa bahay. We made it a rule na pag asa bahay tagalog dapat mag usap. Kahit na nag start na sila mag school very fluent silang dalawa pareho sa tagalog. We hope lang na sana as they grow and more exposed sa school ay ma maintain namin pagka fluent nila sa tagalog.
that is great! keep at it. i've seen kids born and raised here who can talk tagalog fluently. enjoy your time with your young kids. thanks for watching!
Being here in d USA for the last 20 years I have to agree to all of your ideas experienced here. At times I get scared of the coming future but then CHANGE is always inevitable. Kaya we will just pray.
Love this vlog! Calm, no pretension, and classy. You did a great job raising your kids. It’s a different generation. M learning from my Gen Z grandkids. Watching from Palm Springs, California 🇺🇸
I relate to most of your experiences as a family. Our first son, who is now 27, just recently moved in with his gf of 6 years last May. Shortly after that happened, two people close to me, my father and a friend, advised me to have a conversation with my son about his future intentions with his girlfriend. So I did, over brunch on Mother's day. I told him that the girl in a long-term relationship, especially a live-in situation, is always at a disadvantage, and so forth. As parents, we were glad to know of their plans to wed in two years. With that said, things can change in the future, of course, only God knows.
My son moved out last year at the age of 27. He and his white girlfriend bought a house of their own. He told me he's proposing next month and looking forward to their wedding very soon.
15 yrs old po ako ng pumunta ng US..iba talaga pag lumaki mga bata sa US...mga anak ko parang ganyan din but tinuruan ko pa din sila ng ugaling pinoy...now im 65 retired na..enjoy na lang talaga..salamat sa video po.
Hi Gigi It's Becky Lozada.. so nice to bump into your yt channel.. I started watching your channel and I loved it. You have a gift of storytelling so clear, simple, straight forward, so honest and no bragging, You tell it as it is. You have been living here in the States and I can see you still value our culture. Hope to see you again in Vegas. Best regards.
We are very thankful that our son turned out to be good, thanks to our parents, who give us time to ourselves while taking care of our son specially pag nasa work kami. My son’s bedroom is clean, and he does his own laundry.
@@jaketan9349 My videos, especially this one, is therapeutic for me. It lets me share the realities of our life in the States. Some people can relate to it, which provides comfort, in a way, because I know that I’m not alone. Thanks for watching.
I want to let you know that you've helped me as a young parent (30s) to learn from your experience. You are giving us quality content, please keep uploading more.
I feel you po, nakakalungkot lang ma compare mo yung mga batang laking pilipinas kesa dito , mas close ang family and that is what i miss . Love your channel napaka calming ng iyong boses nakaka relax .
I can relate to everything you said in the video, because their teenage years were the hardest until they finished college. But once they had their own family and kids, they changed so much because they now can relate what we been thru . Now that we are retired , we enjoy babysitting our grandkids.
i love hearing grandparents say they're enjoying babysitting. I don't see myself being a grandma anytime soon, but i hope to enjoy my lola duties in the future. thanks for watching!
This video made me teary eyed. I have A, one, son. Emphasize 1! He is our world. But as he gets older, he wants to claim his independence. As hard as it is, I must slowly let go so he can grow to be the man God intended him to be and not what I want him to me. He is a good son, respectful, kind and loving. So in that sense my husband and I did our job. But it is still hard to let you. 😢
Kadalasan mga pinoy na lumaki sa states o ibang bansa napaka aarti,mayayabang at mga isip superior pagdating dito sa Pinas..D naman lahat pero karamihan..
Nag aantay pa lang ako mag current ang PD sa VB para makapagsimula ng bagong buhay dyan as an RN, iniisip ko na agad ang retirement... Hehehe. Daming realizations. Malamang eto din ang magiging direksyon namin. Thank you for this life guide.
I love your vlogs because they are so realistic. I’m surprised that you had to do all of these for your fil am kids. Ours have to do their own d washing. We just lowered our expectations and not expect them to be perfec❤t. All we did was live as morally and and spiritually as we could muster and they just followed suit. Now they can clean, cook, not perfectly but good enough. Because my wife is so education oriented all of them finished college and even went to graduate school. Our main goal was just to love them with all our hearts and everything came to place. Adults na sila pero nag hug parin. I still kiss my daughter every time I driver her to work. Ok lang na she decided not to drive. And she’s 35
You have wonderful children! Such a blessing! Our daughters have masters degrees, too. They're quite accomplished and we're proud of them. And like you, we have lowered our expectations, and love them unconditionally. Thank you po for watching!
Hi Ate Gi, Kumusta na? I hope you are doing well. Your video just popped out my YT and here I ended up subscribing to your channel as of today. I enjoyed watching your videos as it gives me information and joy. Will binge watch your previous videos whenever I have the time. Ingat po kayo palagi. May God bless us all. 🙏💜🌺
Love the honesty as you shared your stories. Walang pretensions nor need to justify/explain. Just telling them as they are. I can relate as we’ve been raising our kids almost all their lives outside Philippines, pero dito naman sa Australia. There are a lot of similarities, though. All the best to you and your family!
I like watching your vlog because kahit matagal ka na sa US, Tagalog pa din. Marami nga dyan inglisera kahit laki naman tayo sa Pinas. My children grew up sa US pero nakakainindi sila ng Tagalog and they speak a little Tagalog. I totally can relate sa kwento mo here Ate Gi😊
I could feel the heartbreak watching this video as if it were my mom narrating this about my siblings and I. She's been through a lot growing up in the Philippines then moving to Canada to be with my dad. I can't imagine all the things she's kept to herself to stay strong. Thank you for this beautiful presentation and opportunity for introspection to change. Best wishes on your planned retirement, from one fellow nurse.
Thank you. It all boils down to honoring our parents. Children often realize it when they become parents themselves. Thank you for watching fellow nurse!
my videos are therapeutic to me. i'm able to share and express what i feel without much details and hearing from viewers that they are able to relate provide comfort that i'm not alone. 🙂 thanks for your kind words.
Relatable ang kwento mo po. Now that may 18 year old na din ako, and a 14 year old. Nakita ko ang similarities nang family nyo sa amin. It has joys bringing children into this world but its true that as parents especially as a mom, marami ring sorrows na pinagdadaanan tayo because of our Children dahil iba talaga ang influences nang western culture sa kanila. Praying na someday ma realize nila ang Filipino Family Values na gusto sana natin na makuha nila at sana ma incorporate nila with their families someday.
I can say we’re pretty lucky that our daughter grew up responsible when it comes of taking care of her stuff. Since she was a little girl we already thought her of how to take care of everything. Also, she understands and knows how to speak tagalog kasi sa bahay tagalog ang pag usap namin Muğla pa noong bata siya that’s why every time we visit the Philippines ay natutuwa mga relatives namin because she can speak and understand tagalog very well. So it’s just a matter of teaching them Filipino traits from the very beginning, just saying😊👍🏼
I love this content! Although I've chosen a different path by staying home and homeschooling with my husband's average earnings as a welding inspector, I could still relate to this. We had to give up material comfort to influence our children's formation and education. It wasn't easy, but it was the most rewarding decision we ever made!
Wonderful perspective and eloquently presented. Lots of common experiences of raising children in North America. We are at that same stage of having raised wonderful children and now they have their own careers and lives "pabalik na rin kami".. Thank you for sharing parts of your life and thoughts.
i accidentally watched one of your vlogs and from i tuned in with your channel. and i really appreciate every vlogs you made especially parenting in US. it help us to think and planned and prepare for our “us-way” parenting. thanks. God bless
Your voice is so comforting. It’s like talking to a mom. I wish my mom would advise me these things. I moved to US when I was 20. I was completely independent but I miss the guidance of having a parent to guide and back you up. Something I don’t have. My parents are looking up for my support and I feel like I’m not allowed to make mistakes or give up because it will disappoint them. I have so many resentment. I wish I have an auntie like you that’s so close to me. It feels so comforting to know what are the struggles of living in America. Your kids are so lucky to have you as their parents. I hope they know that. 😊 I’m glad I found your vlog. ❤ Thank you for sharing your experiences.
💜 Hello! All parents do what they think is best for their children. It may not always be right but their intentions are good. I'm sure your parents are the same. Misunderstandings happen due to generations gaps, or due to kids still lacking maturity and life experiences.. But there will come a time when we will all understand each other. When we eventually play the role of a parent, or when we reach the life stages of people who are older than us. You seem like a daughter every parent would wish to have. Keep love in your heart, choose to be happy, even if there are reasons to be sad. Know that there is a God who loves us. In all our problems, God will find a way, in His time. My love to you. - Ate Gi
Great insight to parenting Ma'am. I think for filipino parents here in the US, the ultimate struggle is how to preserve being a filipino but still adapting to American culture. My personal perspective is we need to take all the good in both cultures. We can not completely live as an American as we were raised differently but it does not mean that their ways are wrong or is the only right way. As parents, teaching our kids the right values should be universal, and the best we can hope is that our kids will turn out to be good human beings.
Nice ate Gi, I really love your blog, very informative, transparent and honest experienced. Continue to share those kind of videos. More power po ate Gi.
Hi Ate Gi, I truly find your words of wisdom comforting. I am raising young kids and I can tell this is the path that is waiting for me. My biggest question of all time to the generation ahead of me is, if you could go back, what would you have changed? I can tell you did your best and your kids are raised well.
I love your channel auntie! I’m a new dad and I have similar questions you touch on this video. We really need that village back home to keep family together. American capitalism is good financially but over time families just get eroded.
Ang ganda po ng vlogs nyu very straight to reality my kids are still small but watching your vlogs makes me more convinced that everything is temporary.They are my life but I know someday I have to let them go and be a person who they wanna be.Thank you for sharing your wisdom as a mom.God bless po😇
anticipating that we need to let them go one day makes the pain a little less. Seeing them independent and self-sufficient will make you happy. that's how i felt. thanks for watching.
I love your story Ate GI na relate my life i have two boys born in raised here in the u s . At nag adopted isang baby boy natapos na sila sa pag aaral hoping na uuwe na malapit para makita ko sila lagi at mga apo. Ay nag retired sa u an Air Force. Nag trabaho ulit malayo naman sa 29years trabaho isang company ok at Kaya k bumili ng bahay sa pinas asawa k understanding naman 45years marriage.hoping to retire in Philippines soon.
@@magenta7006 it's beginning to be popular here in the US where 3 generations live in the same house. The older can't afford to live independently. The sandwich generation can't afford the rising cost of housing. The younger generation are in need of better care! This is how we improve society!
Ate G i’m so happy i found your channel and please continue sharing your videos as they are my therapy to help me fight boredom (home bound and living with multiple sclerosis) god bless
Love your vlogs! It’s a reality check on almost everyone who migrated to the USA at a later age. Indeed there is no place like home. We too are in the process of making plans for retirement but it’s still a long way but your videos help a lot in planning for it. Thank you! ❤
i enjoy your videos, sa totoo lang. it starts with your calm voice and your content does not sugar coat real life while not provoking and promoting drama. even if my experience is different, I find myself open to other perspectives. parang aromatherapy lang that is relaxing to watch ❤
Told my kids many times, you may have all the money in the world, but VALUES STAYS FOREVER, at nakinig naman sila. My daughter was able to graduate BS GEOLOGY, in THREE (3) years, UC STA. BARBARA, no student loan. Proud MOM here.
Everything you said is so true .I miss those days when I can plan a vacation with the family anytime I want .now iba na may kanya kanya na silang plans and super hirap na dahil sa schedule nila.
True. Going back home nakita ko that some families tried to raise their children to be independent na rin specially those who could really afford and slowly adopting western culture mix with Filipino culture in high rise cities. Good thing i still children with good values of our culture. The reality is time and events are changing and kung ano yon nakikita ng iba gets influenced by trend.
Tita Gigi hugs! I love your vlogs, maka antig damdamin naman po yung ending nito! Marami po akong wisdom na natututunan sa inyo. Nurse din po ako dito sa Clearwater Florida, 40years old na po ako at pinag iipunan ko rin po retirement ko sa Pinas. God speed po lagi sa inyo!
Wow dami po wisdom and learnings po sa vlog na eto..naiyak ako hindi ko alam kung bakit..haha.im sure lahat ng natutunan ko dito will help me prepare sa paghandle ng mga sitiuation binigay nyo about sa mga anak nyo. Salamat po.
yes.. ate Gi is a very good narrator.... and a big plus is her gifted/soothing voice.... she reminds me of Tiya Dely, Helen Vela and Charo Santos of Philippine radio...
Hi Ate Gi, I’m delighted to see your new vlog. Inaabangan ko palagi. I can relate to your stories . Honestly , your vlog made me force to sign~in sa RUclips kahit medyo mabagal ako . Hindi kasi ako techie. I’m 74 yrs old and na-hooked sa RUclips. I like the way you vlog , classy and fun to watch. We live in Coral Springs, FL since 1981 and my husband and I are not in the medical profession but eventually landed in good and stable companies. We have two kids and thankfully they are both in very good life situations. Thank God we are now enjoying a piece of American Pie. God bless and keep vlogging.
Thank you so much for your kind words. And for sharing your story. It’s a goal we have as well. We’ll get there soon, God willing. Please let me know about your channel. Three years ago, I knew nothing about content creation. Making RUclips videos has been therapeutic for me. The flurry of video production somehow ebbs life’s worries. Thank you for following.
Tita im watching from sydney, we are young family as well, i enjoy watching your videos cause we can relate living abroad, good luck po in your retirement🫰
Raised 2 girls born here, independent and very determined, frugal an resourceful. In their 20s and not fond of branded items, raised through thrifting. They gave us our independence as they are on their own. They have opposite personalities, but our love dont differ. Prayers and faith do make me strong.
This is so true. Playdates and sleepovers are still something we are still working on fully accepting and adapting as part of living in the States. Aside from that my husband keeps saying I'm becoming soft and lenient in disciplining our child, and not like when we were growing up in the Philippines with very strict moms and grandmas. I remember that one fierce look from my mom, I would already understand to stop what I was doing or else a palo would soon follow. 😀
Today's generation is different. Especially if we are raising them in the states. We would bend rules just to meet our kids somewhere in the middle. Because we also want to keep our relationships with them.
Nice content. Great editing as well. I see you were recently in Las Vegas. We were just there over the weekend. We're visiting from the Philippines, and we're enjoying our vacation so far.
Hi te, saan po kayo US? Ako po s NJ. Thanks for giving me an idea for early retirement. Dati hindi ko po talaga pinaghahandaan ang retirement but because of your vlog, parang natauhan ako to prepare for it.
@@Ophir195 hello! Taga California kami but we lived in NJ for 19 years. If you’re like me na laki sa Pilipinas, saving for retirement wasn’t a thing back in the late ‘80’s. Dito na lang sa states ako natauhan about it. It’s never too late to start planning and saving for retirement.
ate gi salamat naman sa video mo. Alam mo takot din ako para sa mga anak ko lalo na bunso kong lalaki nasa grade 11 siya and you know the environment here talaga iba. Every sunday j make sure nakakasimba kami. Sana hindi magbago mga anak ko. ❤
Oh how I enjoyed this content, and can relate in so many ways and even chuckled when you walked into your son's bedroom, but more relatable as a FILAM kid growing up in SF, & finally understanding my parents struggles raising my sisters & I. I even wish I would have been more receptive to learning tagalog but it's never too late as I'm not taking online tagalog lessons. Salamat Ate Gi 🙂
Great video! I'm single, but help raised a niece. Prayer is the only thing I can help her with. Tulad ng nasa vid mo, lumaki ring matigas ang ulo, and feeling kaya na nila ang mundo,simply because they're earning their own money. 🙏🇵🇭💓
isa lang anak namin, lalaki at 11 years old palang. mga 10-20 yrs pa cguro namin iisipin yan, at 10 yrs plang kami dito sa Melbourne Australia. Almost same lifestyle and culture din cguro sa US, pero hopefully lumaki syang maayos. Basta sa bahay pinoy culture/lifestyle tlaga. At napapansin ko ginagaya ng anak yng mga ugali at preferences ko sa mga bagay bagay hehe
It’s the sad truth .As I watched this video I literally let my husband watched as well .We can relate this one especially we are in a foreign country and kids getting older .It’s true the love is there but it’s not same as we brought up by our elders before .❤❤❤
Hi. It lessens my pain when people like you can relate to my videos. It lets me know that I'm not alone, that I didn't fail in my role as a mom. Salamat po!
Relate dito te Gi.. medyo kinakabahan lang pag mas tumanda na mga anak ko.. Yung lalaki ko 13 na, nahahalikan at madalas pa mag hug ngayon, pag ka hug ko sya sinasabi ko sa kanya parati, “mamimiss ko to kasi pag lumaki ka di mo na ma hug si daddy, mahihiya ka na” sabi naman nya i-hug pa din nya ko madalas kahit matanda na sya. Sabi ko naman, sinasabi mo lang yan ngayon, but I will keep reminding you these words so when that time comes I can tell that I was right 😂. Pa guilty-hin ba😂. Dami kami relate sa kwento mo dito.. Thanks for sharing
Hay, nako. Napaka bakya^ at ma-O. A. Haha. What a beautiful show. What's going to be different with us is we'll let our boy choose what career he wants, and study for it in the university of his choice. We hope he makes a good choice. This show is a gem. Someone in the family is gifted at film. Thank you.
Riveting, touching, and oh so true! Thank you Ate Gi for this enlightening, inspiring, and evocative presentation. It's the most engaging, funny, and entertaining vlog I've ever encountered on youtube--a gem, no more, no less!
@@ecdevera2455 thank you for the kind words and for watching. I’m so humbled and touched.

i absolutely agree i pray for my children everyday was shock when the 1st time you heard your kids say that F word 😢☹️ 6-10-24
they're copying western ways, which they should not. teach them to be respectful and polite like the traditional Filipino culture.

I so love the solemnity how you present everything in a calm and settle way about your children growing up tsaka ung self reflection din as a parent.
this is how i am with my children. i dont have a high salary so kids took a loan fr the govt. oldest got 2 bachelors n the youngest last yr in university. very thankful they take their studies seriously. also, i said to them for you to save money, stay home everything is free.
enjoyed watching your vlog, salamat.
Salamat din for sharing.
This is so true. I have a 13 yr old son and a 10 y.o daughter. Good thing before kami
Umalis ng Pinas me and my wife were able to instill Filipino values sa kanila and they are good kids. Just turned 2yrs here in the United States 🇺🇸 this June and while watching your videos nakaka iyak. Me and my wife are also both RN’s. Watched your videos and i’m learning a lot.
Na encapsulate po ninyo ang buhay ng mga pinoy sa amerika. Saktong sakto po ang kuwento ng buhay ninyo sa amin. Halos lahat ng pinoy na nandito, ganyan na ganyan din po ang mga kuwento! I agree with your thoughts and observations sa mga anak! Parehas na parehas po!
Ang daminating ganito ang buhay. Somehow it’s comforting to know that we are not alone. Thanks for watching.
Salamat po Ate Gi for sharing your story on how you raised your children in US. Meron din kaming mga kids maliliit pa sila 4 and 5 years old. Ramdam ko yung sadness na someday alam namin na aalis din sila sa bahay and will be independent at wala kaming magagawa mag asawa kundi to support them on their own life journey. Sa amin naman we are raising our kids as bilingual, purong tagalog ang usapan namin sa bahay. We made it a rule na pag asa bahay tagalog dapat mag usap. Kahit na nag start na sila mag school very fluent silang dalawa pareho sa tagalog. We hope lang na sana as they grow and more exposed sa school ay ma maintain namin pagka fluent nila sa tagalog.
that is great! keep at it. i've seen kids born and raised here who can talk tagalog fluently. enjoy your time with your young kids. thanks for watching!
Ngayun lang ako mapapacomment 😮. Sobrang real talk po nito. Very eye opening to everyone. Nagbabago tlga ang mundo.
Just found your video. Your voice sounds therapeutic. Your story is relatable. You’re a good storyteller. You have a good story to share.
Being here in d USA for the last 20 years I have to agree to all of your ideas experienced here. At times I get scared of the coming future but then CHANGE is always inevitable. Kaya we will just pray.
Love this vlog! Calm, no pretension, and classy. You did a great job raising your kids.
It’s a different generation. M learning from my Gen Z grandkids. Watching from Palm Springs, California 🇺🇸
Thanks for watching! Appreciate the kind words.
You have a beautiful voice soothing to hear. Thank for sharing. 😊❤
I relate to most of your experiences as a family. Our first son, who is now 27, just recently moved in with his gf of 6 years last May. Shortly after that happened, two people close to me, my father and a friend, advised me to have a conversation with my son about his future intentions with his girlfriend. So I did, over brunch on Mother's day. I told him that the girl in a long-term relationship, especially a live-in situation, is always at a disadvantage, and so forth. As parents, we were glad to know of their plans to wed in two years. With that said, things can change in the future, of course, only God knows.
It’s great that he listened to you. You’ll soon be a mother-in-law. my best to your family. Thanks for watching.
My son moved out last year at the age of 27. He and his white girlfriend bought a house of their own. He told me he's proposing next month and looking forward to their wedding very soon.
15 yrs old po ako ng pumunta ng US..iba talaga pag lumaki mga bata sa US...mga anak ko parang ganyan din but tinuruan ko pa din sila ng ugaling pinoy...now im 65 retired na..enjoy na lang talaga..salamat sa video po.
Not retirement!! Lapit na rin Kami. Thanks for watching.
Hi Gigi It's Becky Lozada.. so nice to bump into your yt channel.. I started watching your channel and I loved it. You have a gift of storytelling so clear, simple, straight forward, so honest and no bragging, You tell it as it is. You have been living here in the States and I can see you still value our culture. Hope to see you again in Vegas. Best regards.
Becky!!! We miss you! My warm regards to Kuya Noel. Thanks for your kind words.
Ate Gi, ansarap manood ng vlog ninyo. Para akong nagbabasa ng diary. Keep it up po. God bless your family.
Thank you po! God bless din po sa inyo.
Real talk thank you for sharing
In every family, there seems to be a member who goes against the norms, regardless of the parents' efforts to instill their values.
We are very thankful that our son turned out to be good, thanks to our parents, who give us time to ourselves while taking care of our son specially pag nasa work kami.
My son’s bedroom is clean, and he does his own laundry.
Your son is amazing!
It is the most personal I have watch so far. Thank you Tita Gi for your stories.
@@jaketan9349 My videos, especially this one, is therapeutic for me. It lets me share the realities of our life in the States. Some people can relate to it, which provides comfort, in a way, because I know that I’m not alone. Thanks for watching.
I want to let you know that you've helped me as a young parent (30s) to learn from your experience. You are giving us quality content, please keep uploading more.
@@woopipa I’m glad that you are picking up something from my experiences, my mistakes. Hug your kid/kids tight and my virtual kisses to them 💜
Thanks for sharing your perspective! My kids are in their late teens and im starting to exoerience the same obstacles.
I feel you po, nakakalungkot lang ma compare mo yung mga batang laking pilipinas kesa dito , mas close ang family and that is what i miss . Love your channel napaka calming ng iyong boses nakaka relax .
salamat po!
I can relate to everything you said in the video, because their teenage years were the hardest until they finished college. But once they had their own family and kids, they changed so much because they now can relate what we been thru . Now that we are retired , we enjoy babysitting our grandkids.
i love hearing grandparents say they're enjoying babysitting. I don't see myself being a grandma anytime soon, but i hope to enjoy my lola duties in the future. thanks for watching!
I love ur vlog po.. naka kalma... More.power maam Gi
salamat po!!💙
This video made me teary eyed. I have A, one, son. Emphasize 1! He is our world. But as he gets older, he wants to claim his independence. As hard as it is, I must slowly let go so he can grow to be the man God intended him to be and not what I want him to me. He is a good son, respectful, kind and loving. So in that sense my husband and I did our job. But it is still hard to let you. 😢
You are blessed to have your son. Thanks for sharing and for watching.
Kadalasan mga pinoy na lumaki sa states o ibang bansa napaka aarti,mayayabang at mga isip superior pagdating dito sa Pinas..D naman lahat pero karamihan..
@@TyroneTyler-ui6rx See?halatang halatang pinoy pero american daw..😁😁
Nag aantay pa lang ako mag current ang PD sa VB para makapagsimula ng bagong buhay dyan as an RN, iniisip ko na agad ang retirement... Hehehe. Daming realizations. Malamang eto din ang magiging direksyon namin. Thank you for this life guide.
I appreciate you watching my videos kahit na pa-umpisa ka pa lang. Enjoy your work journey wherever you are. My best to you!
I agree with everything that you said. I pray that our children will realize how much we love them and shield them from any harm.
I love your vlogs because they are so realistic. I’m surprised that you had to do all of these for your fil am kids. Ours have to do their own d washing. We just lowered our expectations and not expect them to be perfec❤t. All we did was live as morally and and spiritually as we could muster and they just followed suit. Now they can clean, cook, not perfectly but good enough. Because my wife is so education oriented all of them finished college and even went to graduate school. Our main goal was just to love them with all our hearts and everything came to place. Adults na sila pero nag hug parin. I still kiss my daughter every time I driver her to work. Ok lang na she decided not to drive. And she’s 35
You have wonderful children! Such a blessing! Our daughters have masters degrees, too. They're quite accomplished and we're proud of them. And like you, we have lowered our expectations, and love them unconditionally. Thank you po for watching!
I find myself crying while listening to this. Ang ganda ng story telling nyo.
@@legokid12ify medyo nakakaiyak nga po ang ending nyan. Thanks for watching po.
Hi Ate Gi,
Kumusta na? I hope you are doing well. Your video just popped out my YT and here I ended up subscribing to your channel as of today. I enjoyed watching your videos as it gives me information and joy. Will binge watch your previous videos whenever I have the time. Ingat po kayo palagi. May God bless us all. 🙏💜🌺
Love the honesty as you shared your stories. Walang pretensions nor need to justify/explain. Just telling them as they are. I can relate as we’ve been raising our kids almost all their lives outside Philippines, pero dito naman sa Australia. There are a lot of similarities, though. All the best to you and your family!
I like watching your vlog because kahit matagal ka na sa US, Tagalog pa din. Marami nga dyan inglisera kahit laki naman tayo sa Pinas. My children grew up sa US pero nakakainindi sila ng Tagalog and they speak a little Tagalog. I totally can relate sa kwento mo here Ate Gi😊
Kahit na po ako mag english, alam nila ang Tagalog accent ko. lol! hindi ko maitago. Thank you po for watching!
I could feel the heartbreak watching this video as if it were my mom narrating this about my siblings and I. She's been through a lot growing up in the Philippines then moving to Canada to be with my dad. I can't imagine all the things she's kept to herself to stay strong. Thank you for this beautiful presentation and opportunity for introspection to change. Best wishes on your planned retirement, from one fellow nurse.
Thank you. It all boils down to honoring our parents. Children often realize it when they become parents themselves. Thank you for watching fellow nurse!
I enjoy watching your videos - very relatable. God bless you and your family!
Thank you! You too!
You are true to your blog , no inhibition, you narrated your true life .
my videos are therapeutic to me. i'm able to share and express what i feel without much details and hearing from viewers that they are able to relate provide comfort that i'm not alone. 🙂 thanks for your kind words.
Ate Gi I started reading your story. God is good. You’re an eye opener and really can rely at the same time everything in life is a Balance.
@@vivianburns5692 that’s so true.
Thank you for sharing your family story Po, relate Po me as a parent.
Relatable ang kwento mo po. Now that may 18 year old na din ako, and a 14 year old. Nakita ko ang similarities nang family nyo sa amin. It has joys bringing children into this world but its true that as parents especially as a mom, marami ring sorrows na pinagdadaanan tayo because of our Children dahil iba talaga ang influences nang western culture sa kanila. Praying na someday ma realize nila ang Filipino Family Values na gusto sana natin na makuha nila at sana ma incorporate nila with their families someday.
We can only pray and hope for the best for our children. Thanks for sharing and for watching.
I can say we’re pretty lucky that our daughter grew up responsible when it comes of taking care of her stuff. Since she was a little girl we already thought her of how to take care of everything. Also, she understands and knows how to speak tagalog kasi sa bahay tagalog ang pag usap namin Muğla pa noong bata siya that’s why every time we visit the Philippines ay natutuwa mga relatives namin because she can speak and understand tagalog very well. So it’s just a matter of teaching them Filipino traits from the very beginning, just saying😊👍🏼
I agree. That's wonderful!
I love this content! Although I've chosen a different path by staying home and homeschooling with my husband's average earnings as a welding inspector, I could still relate to this. We had to give up material comfort to influence our children's formation and education. It wasn't easy, but it was the most rewarding decision we ever made!
the things we do for our children...
thanks for watching and for sharing as well!
“A dog is the only thing on earth that loves you more than he loves himself.”
I totally agree.
Unconditional
Wonderful perspective and eloquently presented. Lots of common experiences of raising children in North America. We are at that same stage of having raised wonderful children and now they have their own careers and lives "pabalik na rin kami".. Thank you for sharing parts of your life and thoughts.
@@ThetemporaryFarmer We’re grateful that the kids are grown, self sufficient and professionals. Isa na lang☺️ Thank you for watching.
i accidentally watched one of your vlogs and from i tuned in with your channel. and i really appreciate every vlogs you made especially parenting in US. it help us to think and planned and prepare for our “us-way” parenting. thanks. God bless
Your voice is so comforting. It’s like talking to a mom. I wish my mom would advise me these things. I moved to US when I was 20. I was completely independent but I miss the guidance of having a parent to guide and back you up. Something I don’t have. My parents are looking up for my support and I feel like I’m not allowed to make mistakes or give up because it will disappoint them. I have so many resentment. I wish I have an auntie like you that’s so close to me. It feels so comforting to know what are the struggles of living in America.
Your kids are so lucky to have you as their parents. I hope they know that. 😊
I’m glad I found your vlog. ❤ Thank you for sharing your experiences.
💜 Hello! All parents do what they think is best for their children. It may not always be right but their intentions are good. I'm sure your parents are the same. Misunderstandings happen due to generations gaps, or due to kids still lacking maturity and life experiences.. But there will come a time when we will all understand each other. When we eventually play the role of a parent, or when we reach the life stages of people who are older than us.
You seem like a daughter every parent would wish to have. Keep love in your heart, choose to be happy, even if there are reasons to be sad. Know that there is a God who loves us. In all our problems, God will find a way, in His time. My love to you. - Ate Gi
@@official_ate_gi_channel Your comment means so much to me. Thank you for sharing your insights. Feels good to be heard and validated. 🤍
Great insight to parenting Ma'am. I think for filipino parents here in the US, the ultimate struggle is how to preserve being a filipino but still adapting to American culture. My personal perspective is we need to take all the good in both cultures. We can not completely live as an American as we were raised differently but it does not mean that their ways are wrong or is the only right way. As parents, teaching our kids the right values should be universal, and the best we can hope is that our kids will turn out to be good human beings.
totally agree with you.
Nice ate Gi, I really love your blog, very informative, transparent and honest experienced. Continue to share those kind of videos. More power po ate Gi.
I love your videos and your story telling Style.
Glad you enjoyed them! Thank you so much for watching.
This is so true raising kids in america from both blooded Pinoy parents. But still grateful my kids are also thriving.
Hi Ate Gi, I truly find your words of wisdom comforting. I am raising young kids and I can tell this is the path that is waiting for me. My biggest question of all time to the generation ahead of me is, if you could go back, what would you have changed? I can tell you did your best and your kids are raised well.
I love your channel auntie! I’m a new dad and I have similar questions you touch on this video. We really need that village back home to keep family together. American capitalism is good financially but over time families just get eroded.
Ang ganda po ng vlogs nyu very straight to reality my kids are still small but watching your vlogs makes me more convinced that everything is temporary.They are my life but I know someday I have to let them go and be a person who they wanna be.Thank you for sharing your wisdom as a mom.God bless po😇
anticipating that we need to let them go one day makes the pain a little less. Seeing them independent and self-sufficient will make you happy. that's how i felt. thanks for watching.
I love your story Ate GI na relate my life i have two boys born in raised here in the u s . At nag adopted isang baby boy natapos na sila sa pag aaral hoping na uuwe na malapit para makita ko sila lagi at mga apo. Ay nag retired sa u an Air Force. Nag trabaho ulit malayo naman sa 29years trabaho isang company ok at Kaya k bumili ng bahay sa pinas asawa k understanding naman 45years marriage.hoping to retire in Philippines soon.
Thank you for watching my video. I hope you can retire sa atin soon.
Relate na relate ako dyan ate G. 👍
Your Message and cinematography is outstanding! Yes, nursing homes is the option here in the US...
Nursing homes are not free. $5,000 a month at least or with insurance!
@@magenta7006 it's beginning to be popular here in the US where 3 generations live in the same house. The older can't afford to live independently. The sandwich generation can't afford the rising cost of housing. The younger generation are in need of better care!
This is how we improve society!
Ate G i’m so happy i found your channel and please continue sharing your videos as they are my therapy to help me fight boredom (home bound and living with multiple sclerosis) god bless
Salamat po. You will be in my thoughts in making future videos. Praying for healing for you.
Love your vlogs! It’s a reality check on almost everyone who migrated to the USA at a later age. Indeed there is no place like home. We too are in the process of making plans for retirement but it’s still a long way but your videos help a lot in planning for it. Thank you! ❤
So glad to hear my videos are able to help you. Thanks for watching my videos!
Your experience sounds familiar. Been there, done that.😊
😊
As parents, we can’t promise to be always with them in their lifetime, but we can assure them that we ‘ll always love them till the end of ours.❤❤❤
Totally agree!
i enjoy your videos, sa totoo lang. it starts with your calm voice and your content does not sugar coat real life while not provoking and promoting drama. even if my experience is different, I find myself open to other perspectives. parang aromatherapy lang that is relaxing to watch ❤
awww. thank you for the compliments po.
Told my kids many times, you may have all the money in the world, but VALUES STAYS FOREVER, at nakinig naman sila. My daughter was able to graduate BS GEOLOGY, in THREE (3) years, UC STA. BARBARA, no student loan. Proud MOM here.
@@beatrizabelardo5091 that’s amazing! Congratulations to your daughter!!! And to the proud mom ❤️
ill be with my mom and relatives soon.. this helps me to reflect if ive been a good daughter thank u po
Everything you said is so true .I miss those days when I can plan a vacation with the family anytime I want .now iba na may kanya kanya na silang plans and super hirap na dahil sa schedule nila.
I love how you narrate your content. so calm and peacful. I am a new fan. :)
Nakaka-relate so much Ate! Lots of memorable memories nong kabataan natin! 🙏
True.
Going back home nakita ko that some families tried to raise their children to be independent na rin specially those who could really afford and slowly adopting western culture mix with Filipino culture in high rise cities. Good thing i still children with good values of our culture. The reality is time and events are changing and kung ano yon nakikita ng iba gets influenced by trend.
Tita Gigi hugs! I love your vlogs, maka antig damdamin naman po yung ending nito! Marami po akong wisdom na natututunan sa inyo. Nurse din po ako dito sa Clearwater Florida, 40years old na po ako at pinag iipunan ko rin po retirement ko sa Pinas. God speed po lagi sa inyo!
Nakakantig no? 🙂↕️ That’s life. Enjoy your nursing journey! Take care and my best to you.
Ang sarap talaga sa pilipinas lumaki
Wow dami po wisdom and learnings po sa vlog na eto..naiyak ako hindi ko alam kung bakit..haha.im sure lahat ng natutunan ko dito will help me prepare sa paghandle ng mga sitiuation binigay nyo about sa mga anak nyo. Salamat po.
Sana po nakatulong. Thanks for watching!
Mam tama ka ang anak ko Ganon din sila habang Lu maki sila .
Thank you for the story of your life. I can relate the feelings you feel. God bless!
sharing my feelings and knowing that others feel the same way somehow lessens the pain, kasi i know, that I am not alone. thanks for watching!
Keep uploading more videos po ate Gi. I love your content and the way you narrate po❤❤❤
yes.. ate Gi is a very good narrator.... and a big plus is her gifted/soothing voice.... she reminds me of Tiya Dely, Helen Vela and Charo Santos of Philippine radio...
@@AnAAnA-rk7vo Maraming salamat po. I’m honored and humbled to be compared to them.
Thank you! I’m so touched.
Very relate ako dto.. nice one! ❤
@@griltv6182 thank you!
Hi Ate Gi, I’m delighted to see your new vlog. Inaabangan ko palagi. I can relate to your stories . Honestly , your vlog made me force to sign~in sa RUclips kahit medyo mabagal ako . Hindi kasi ako techie. I’m 74 yrs old and na-hooked sa RUclips. I like the way you vlog , classy and fun to watch. We live in Coral Springs, FL since 1981 and my husband and I are not in the medical profession but eventually landed in good and stable companies. We have two kids and thankfully they are both in very good life situations. Thank God we are now enjoying a piece of American Pie. God bless and keep vlogging.
Thank you so much for your kind words. And for sharing your story. It’s a goal we have as well. We’ll get there soon, God willing. Please let me know about your channel. Three years ago, I knew nothing about content creation. Making RUclips videos has been therapeutic for me. The flurry of video production somehow ebbs life’s worries. Thank you for following.
I don’t have a channel Ate Gi. Yours is my most-Watched vlog, others I watch randomly .
I really love your vlogs ate Gi. It is full of wisdom lagi.
Tita im watching from sydney, we are young family as well, i enjoy watching your videos cause we can relate living abroad, good luck po in your retirement🫰
thank you! sending my warmest regards to your family in Sydney!
I like how you share your story.❤
Raised 2 girls born here, independent and very determined, frugal an resourceful. In their 20s and not fond of branded items, raised through thrifting. They gave us our independence as they are on their own. They have opposite personalities, but our love dont differ. Prayers and faith do make me strong.
totally agree about faith and prayers.
Hi atë G ,, I thought I’m the Only one who has been in this situation, akala ko emotional lang ako, thank you for sharing your story ❤
This is so true. Playdates and sleepovers are still something we are still working on fully accepting and adapting as part of living in the States. Aside from that my husband keeps saying I'm becoming soft and lenient in disciplining our child, and not like when we were growing up in the Philippines with very strict moms and grandmas. I remember that one fierce look from my mom, I would already understand to stop what I was doing or else a palo would soon follow. 😀
Today's generation is different. Especially if we are raising them in the states. We would bend rules just to meet our kids somewhere in the middle. Because we also want to keep our relationships with them.
Love to watch your vlog po
@@mariecrissombillo5152 thank you!
Nice content. Great editing as well. I see you were recently in Las Vegas. We were just there over the weekend. We're visiting from the Philippines, and we're enjoying our vacation so far.
Enjoy your US visit. Thanks for your kind words.
Hi te, saan po kayo US? Ako po s NJ. Thanks for giving me an idea for early retirement. Dati hindi ko po talaga pinaghahandaan ang retirement but because of your vlog, parang natauhan ako to prepare for it.
@@Ophir195 hello! Taga California kami but we lived in NJ for 19 years. If you’re like me na laki sa Pilipinas, saving for retirement wasn’t a thing back in the late ‘80’s. Dito na lang sa states ako natauhan about it. It’s never too late to start planning and saving for retirement.
ate gi salamat naman sa video mo. Alam mo takot din ako para sa mga anak ko lalo na bunso kong lalaki nasa grade 11 siya and you know the environment here talaga iba. Every sunday j make sure nakakasimba kami. Sana hindi magbago mga anak ko. ❤
sana nga, ma-retain nila ang pagsisimba tuwing Linggo. thanks for watching!
May similarities po pala dito sa Korea❤
Oh how I enjoyed this content, and can relate in so many ways and even chuckled when you walked into your son's bedroom, but more relatable as a FILAM kid growing up in SF, & finally understanding my parents struggles raising my sisters & I. I even wish I would have been more receptive to learning tagalog but it's never too late as I'm not taking online tagalog lessons. Salamat Ate Gi 🙂
Great video!
I'm single, but help raised a niece.
Prayer is the only thing I can help her with.
Tulad ng nasa vid mo, lumaki ring matigas ang ulo, and feeling kaya na nila ang mundo,simply because they're earning their own money.
🙏🇵🇭💓
that's so true. all we can do is pray and have faith and trust that things will be alright.
isa lang anak namin, lalaki at 11 years old palang. mga 10-20 yrs pa cguro namin iisipin yan, at 10 yrs plang kami dito sa Melbourne Australia. Almost same lifestyle and culture din cguro sa US, pero hopefully lumaki syang maayos. Basta sa bahay pinoy culture/lifestyle tlaga. At napapansin ko ginagaya ng anak yng mga ugali at preferences ko sa mga bagay bagay hehe
Nice❤ kaboses niyo po si Ms Ms Charo from.abs cbn😊
As if nakikinig ako ng MMK narration ni Ms. Charo 😅 ❤
Love your videos Tita. My kind of plan after my Nursing career.
I always feel honored getting compared to MMK of Ms Charo. Salamat!! ❤️❤️
It’s the sad truth .As I watched this video I literally let my husband watched as well .We can relate this one especially we are in a foreign country and kids getting older .It’s true the love is there but it’s not same as we brought up by our elders before .❤❤❤
Hi. It lessens my pain when people like you can relate to my videos. It lets me know that I'm not alone, that I didn't fail in my role as a mom. Salamat po!
Hello po relate po ako dyan kakatuwa naman po mga vlog nyo po ito po ako umiinom ng Tea habang nanonood po sayo nag rerelax habang tulog si bunso hehe
salamat! sana hindi nagising si bunso. 💙
Relate dito te Gi.. medyo kinakabahan lang pag mas tumanda na mga anak ko.. Yung lalaki ko 13 na, nahahalikan at madalas pa mag hug ngayon, pag ka hug ko sya sinasabi ko sa kanya parati, “mamimiss ko to kasi pag lumaki ka di mo na ma hug si daddy, mahihiya ka na” sabi naman nya i-hug pa din nya ko madalas kahit matanda na sya. Sabi ko naman, sinasabi mo lang yan ngayon, but I will keep reminding you these words so when that time comes I can tell that I was right 😂. Pa guilty-hin ba😂. Dami kami relate sa kwento mo dito.. Thanks for sharing
Sana maging effective ang guilt trip style mo. Lol!! Keep expectations low para hindi masakit. Thanks as always for watching!!
Omg, I can relate to all your point of views n experiences❤️
Love your videos po.. Nakakarelate ako, I have 2 filam kids 😅
thank you po!
Hay, nako. Napaka bakya^ at ma-O. A. Haha. What a beautiful show.
What's going to be different with us is we'll let our boy choose what career he wants, and study for it in the university of his choice. We hope he makes a good choice.
This show is a gem. Someone in the family is gifted at film.
Thank you.
OA ano? But thanks for watching. I film and edit the videos.
