Puppy Love

Puppy Love from Illustrado

By: Neph Kirong

When the kids start talking about romantic relationships, it signals two things:  One, they are about to cross into adulthood and two, their parents don’t know quite how to handle it. Neph Kirong takes a look at puppy love from the perspective of both parent and child.

Personal experiences on teenage love are probably one of the most exciting stories parents love to tell their children. Of course, for most, the story ends with “Pero anak, bata ka pa ha, di pa pwede (You’re not allowed yet, you’re still young)” or something that goes along that line.
While it certainly sounds funny, it’s a different story altogether when children actually experience their own actual teenage relationships. For most parents and children, it becomes a very serious and sensitive issue.

In this issue of Illustrado magazine, we look at how Filipino parents and teenagers weigh on the issue, and actually suggest ways to avoid what most parents call the “rebellious phase”, and what teenagers call “they can’t understand me.”
