Kahit bata pa

ako, alam kong

mahal kita.

instagram ko, at comment

Type nya ako, type ko siya. e, di kami na.

Rationale:Children have to learn

love, first in their homes, then in their

schools. They have to understand that

people show love and feel loved in different

ways.

Value to teach:Children need to

appreciate the love of their parents, teachers, and friends, and to love them in return, in the

language that they would understand. This is the best practice, for

them to love their partners in the future.

Steps to learning how to love right

1. Love God above all.2. Love yourself (knowing that God made you in

His image).3. Love your parents/authorities (trusting that

God entrusted you to them.4. Love your friends (platonic).5. Trust that God will give you the right person

“to love” at the right time.
