Traditional or Modern Mom

I want to know your thoughts about how your mother raised your household vs how you raised your own. Napansin ko lang pagkakaiba namin ng mom ko, let me enumerate 🤪 btw, I am 90s kid while she’s 70s. please feel free to add more. 1. She is the “sentimental value” type of a hoarder/collector 😅 ako naman sakit na sakit sa mata ko lahat ng display at kalat sa bahay. Gusto ko walang nakikitang display sa ibabaw ng counters/tables. Aesthetic, team kahoy at team white ako. 2. Hanggang nagagamit pa nya kahit sobrang luma hindi nya papalitan. Number 1 dyan ang mga unan at towel. Nilalaban nya naman pero kahit sobrang nipis at tigas na pagsasamahin lang para magamit ulit. Ako naman ang concern ko is hygiene, papalitan ko talaga ng bago. 3. Old pans/cookwares, magtitiis sya kahit panay sunog at dikit na sa pan yung niluluto nya. Our pots used to be the kaldero from an old rice cooker. Err ayoko! Hindi ako ginaganahan magluto pag ganyan. 4. Storage container is a used icecream container. Sakit sa mata sa ref tapos isa isa pa ichecheck 😫 5. Cooked foods are the usual pangat, adobo, sinigang, all the time. Gusto ko naman makatry ng ibang dishes for my kids. 6. Mas gusto nya nahihirapan kesa convenience. Mommy ko lang ba ganito? 😅 ayaw nya ng vacuum, air fryer, automatic washing machine, etc. 7. Walang pakialam kung masakit sa mata yung mga gamit. Hindi coordinated. In short hindi organized. At sumasakit naman ang ulo ko sa ganito. 8. Yung mga lumang gamit pilit na ginagamit pwede naman bumili ng kapalit. Naulit lang ata to 🤷🏻‍♀️ pero ganyan talaga kasi sila 😩 The list goes on… balikan ko to pag may naisip pa ko 😂

Your generation is a lot different from her generation. Magka iba ang kinalakihan nyong society. I was born at 70"s, during my younger ager, i dont like stuffs na same sa nabanggit mo. Like using used ice cream canister because meron naman new one na naka display lang sa cabinet. But now that i reached my age now, eventually i used to appreciate things like that. Maybe you should let your mother do what makes her happy. Maybe someday when the time you reaches the age of your mother too, who knows you will be the same like her, because generations today will definitely different in the future.
