"You don't owe your parents anything". For me, that is bullshit actually. As someone who raised by my parents, yes, it's their obligation, but mind you.. they raised me, they provided for what I need, they got me a degree.. and who am I to forget those sacrifices they made. I love them and I owe them. Salute to all parents! ❤️🩹

Dear comment section, this applies for grateful children. For those who are filled with love, grew up in love. Shooo negative vibes, if this doesn’t fit you, wag here. Hehe. ✌️

Everyone’s family experience is different, so there’s no one-size-fits-all. At the end of the day, it’s about recognizing the effort and sacrifices, and choosing to give back not because you have to, but because you genuinely want to💜

The phrase, "You don't owe your parents anything" isn't always about money. Sometimes, it's also about Boundaries over Obligation. You are not required to tolerate abuse, neglect, or toxicity simply because "they are family" Relationships with parents should be based on mutual respect and affection in the present, not a forced, or lifetime debt. And when it comes to money, still the children are not financially obligated to repay parents for raising them. Giving your parents the life they truly deserve after everything they've been through, it should be voluntarily, not coerced through guilt.

Your statement doesn't really support your argument 😅 Ikaw na ang may sabi, "not out of obligation". Yun exactly ang ibig sabihin ng "we don't owe our parents anything". Hindi tayo dapat obligadong 'ibalik' ang mga ibinigay nila satin dahil responsibilidad nila yun. Hindi nila pwedeng isumbat yung mga binigay nila satin as if parang banko ang mga anak na pwede mong withdrawhin yung pinagipunan mo. Pero syempre, pag maayos ka nilang napalaki, maayos ang trato sayo, kusa kang mag gigive back. Financially man o sa pagaalaga. Normal yan sa anak na minahal at pinalaki ng tama.

How can we say that we are filled with love if we cannot give an ounce of understanding to those who grew up without it? If u can be nice to a totally random stranger, at least be nice to the estranged

those who say that probably did not get the best experience from their parent's parenting. sana wag din natin i-invalidate kasi hindi rin natin alam pinagdaanan nila. it's honestly good for you kasi i can see na sa thinking mo na yan, you had good parents growing up. there are different kinds of parents and not all people grow up in the same household. i hope you can also extend the same empathy sa mga tao na narinig mong magsabi niyan, and not say this to someone na nag-oopen up about their family 🥺

Case to case, responsible parents deserves most care! For me It is really not an obligation but a way for us to give back sa magandang buhay na binigay nila sa atin. I wouldn’t judge those kids na doesn’t have the same tots about this because we were raised differently and that is life. Kudos to all the responsible parents!!! 🫡

you don’t give back out of obligation, but out of love.

And for those who think it’s not an obligation to give back, then do it for love. Do it simply because you love.

It’s not a one size fits all. If you grew up in a family where there was no affection, love, or security .. all you got was responsibilities, expectations, and trauma. U grew up tired, and all u wanted was to leave that house that never felt like home. I love my parents, but I realized inner peace is what I truly need, and that is found away from them.

finally someone na ka line ng mindset ko. For me ha, nakakalungkot marinig yung ibang bata na 'hindi naman nmin gusto ipanganak" i feel they are not close with their parents. Kahit iisipin ko palang na masabi yan sa parents ko, maiiyak na ako. ang dami nilang pinagda-anan para mabigyan lang ako ng magandang buhay. Nakapagtapos ako ng school kahit marami silang sinangla. ngayon ako na naman ang babawi sa kanila.

I agree na you don't owe your parents anything because it's their obligations to raise you, depende nalang siguro sa perspective at opinion ng tao kung super grateful sila para mag give back, hindi naman kasi lahat ng tao ay in good terms with their parents

Let's forgive our parents sa mga pagkukulang nila, hindi sila perfect at first time lang din nila maging magulang, let's help them sa oras na di na nila kaya.

My parents said "Ikaw na bahala kung susuportahan mo kami kapag may trabaho kana" I said na hindi ako papayag kasi magulang ko sila. I know I am not obligated to give them anything in return but as their only daughter, I was the only one to see their effort for me to be successful. They deserve what I will give them in the future kasi sila nagpalaki, at nag turo saakin. It’s not only about "magulang mo sila", it’s also about recognizing them as your number 1 fan, supporter, and fighter.

Exactly. You give back to the people you love. You give back because you love them. Not because you're obligated to. Anyone can have kids, pero hindi lahat kayang maging magulang.

That is actually the point of this phrase as I see it 🙂 You do not owe your parents anything but if you are raised with love you will naturally want to give back not because you have to but because you want to.

those are completely two different things.
what they meant about "you don't owe your parents anything" is that you are not obligated nor responsible to give back for the sake of just repaying their sacrifices and the things they've done for you. you shouldn't see it as something you "owe" your parents, just to fulfill your obligations and repay but something you actually genuinely want to do out of love and respect.

"you don't owe your parents anything" - is just an oversimplification... but that doesn't mean we're not grateful,. we just don't want to be obliged/demanded/guilt-tripped

The Bible says, Honor your Mother and Father but the Bible also says to not provoke your children to anger. Children are not the 1st to love their parents.
