Rights of a Child

-
Children worldwide suffer from abuse everyday. Not too many people are aware of the different kinds of abuse the children undergo-not because they don't care, but because it is not publicized enough for anyone to do anything about it. Human rights groups have mainly focused on the rights of adults rather than children- chiefly the reason why this issue has not yet been solved. The maltreatment of children, let alone anyone, should not be tolerated anywhere.

Every child whether a boy or girl irrespective of age is unique and has value importance as a person with a right for their human dignity to be respected. It has a right to have a say in all decisions and matters that concern him or her, to be listened to and his or her opinion taken seriously. Right to provision, to participation, to be protected from all forms of punishment or discrimination, to get and share information and to express them, to privacy, to play and enjoy.

Children have a right to participate in decisions that shape their life and therefore should be given a chance to express their own opinion. However, this right is only exercised considering the maturity and the best interest of the child. Not all decisions that a child makes will be supported by their parents or guardians. For instance, a child cannot make a decision not to go school. For the best interests of the child the child will be forced to attend school.

Wikang Filipino; Wika ng Saliksik

Sabi nila walang permanente sa mundo. Maraming pwedeng mawala at magbago. Maraming pwedeng magbago at maaring hindi na maibalik pa. Pero huwag sana nating hayaang ang wikang kinagisnan at kinalakihan natin ang magbago. Mga kabataan ngayon ay madami ng alam. Maraming mga salitang nabubuo sakanilang isipan. Binabaliktad ang mga salita, hinahaloan ng mga wikang Kano, salitang jejemon,mga balbal at pati lenggwahe ng mga baklang bekimon ay ginagaya.Ano pang halaga ng sarili nating wika? Kung gumagawa tayo ng iba at hindi ito ginagamit sa tama. Kung nais natin ay pagbabago, gamitin natin ang wikang mapagbago, wikang Filipino. Pausbungin at pagyamanin natin ito.Gamitin upang mas mapalawak ang kaisipan at ang ating pag-iisip sa mga bagay-bagay sa ating paligid. Sa pagtuklas ng mga bagong kaalaman. Lalo na sa Agham at Matematika. Dahil marami ka pang kailangang malaman sa mundo. Lalo na sa bayang kinatatayuan mo. Kaya kailangan mo munang simulan sa sariling bansa mo sa pamamagitan ng wikang F...

Independence Day: Must Remember

-
Before a caterpillar become a beautiful butterfly that flies freely, it needs to get out to a cocoon first. Just like how Filipinos before fight for our country to get out from the hands of the people who invaded and colonized Philippines. We owe our freedom to the untold number of Filipinos and soldiers who have fought and sacrificed their lives for our country. They fought to end the sufferings of the Filipinos who become slave because of the cruel Spaniards and other people who colonized Philippines. They were the true heroes. Because without them we might still suffering until now. We might still imprisoned and still inside a cocoon. That's why we need to celebrate the "Independence Day". To honor and remember their heroism. You can also be a hero like them. Because you don't need to have a power to be called one. Just love your own country and fight for it even if it cost your life.
