Pokwang teaches Malia house chores to help daughter avoid gadgets

Pokwang is raising her daughter Malia to be a typical Pinoy child used to doing house chores.

According to Cata Tibayan's report on "24 Oras Weekend," Saturday, Malia is helping out with folding clothes, cooking, sweeping, and mopping the floor.

She particularly enjoys washing the dishes, and Pokwang said she must keep an eye on her daughter as she gets carried away with using the soap.

"Kailangan di ba sa panahon ngayon 'wag natin inaalis na, habang lumalaki sila, 'wag natin inaalis 'yung kung ano 'yung kultura nating mga Pilipino," she said.

"Pinalaki tayo ng mga magulang natin na kanya kanya tayong kilos sa bahay," she added. "So 'yun din naman ang napag-usapan namin nung tatay niya, maging independent siya, lumaki siyang ganun."

The "TiktoClock" host encouraged other parents to teach their kids their chores while they are young.

"Tayo po ang gabay nila para maiwas sila sa gadget at saka para magkaroon sila ng activities hindi ba sa araw-araw," she said.
