I remember my tito who works in the US told me once. 'Wag na raw ako magsabi ng po at opo, especially to people I don't know dahil it somehow reflects that there's someone inferior and superior between us. So I got his point, na para ako yung "superior" as opposed to who I am talking to. What are your thoughts about this, parents?

Being a filipino tinuran tayo na maging magalang lalo to the person older sa atin , at para sakin di naman cguro masama na gumamit nito lalo na kung ito at yung nakagawian na nating mga pinoy. Ngunit kahit ano pamang salita ang gagamitin mo sa bandang huli ang mas importante parin ay ang magandang pag uugali ang pagrespeto bilang tao nakakatanda man yan o mas bata sayo.

I don't believe that children should be reprimanded to say po and opo because that has been inclined with our culture that using po and opo sends sign for respect.
