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..I taught this especially to my youngest brother since im the eldest.. and were instructed to pay respect to elderly people not just to our parents, especially during family reunion, in which not all elderlies are related by blood.
