I've noticed that Filipino kids nowadays often greet their parents casually (either by saying "Hello Mama/Papa" or hugging and kissing them on the cheeks). I wonder, do you still practice giving "mano" to the elders and teach your kids to do the same as a sign of respect? Image source: https://www.pinterest.com/pin/194358540144179051/

Yes, we do. As early as possible, children in our family are thought how to "bless" or "mano". They do that as they greet not only the family members but also our friends whom they call titos and titas. They always love how the little kids (1+ and 2 year olds) are accustomed to this greeting and showing respect.
