Why I Don’t Allow Teen Sleepovers

Some may see it as harmless fun, but as a parent, I see things differently. I love my kids too much to put them in situations where they might be vulnerable or unsafe.

Overnight gatherings often mean less supervision, more pressure from peers, and choices that can change lives in ways teens aren’t ready for. I’d rather protect them now than regret later.

Friendship, bonding, laughter—they don’t need to happen in the middle of the night, away from home. There are safer, healthier ways for teens to enjoy their youth without the risks.

This isn’t about being strict. It’s about love, guidance, and wanting the best for them. Because at the end of the day, keeping our children safe is worth every “No” we say.

Why I Say No to Sleepovers

To my teenager,
I know you think I’m being unfair when I say no.
I know it feels like I don’t trust you.
But the truth is—it’s not you I don’t trust… it’s this world.

This world can be cruel.
Not everyone has good intentions.
Not every home is safe.
Behind closed doors, things can happen that change lives forever—things I could never undo for you.

So when I say no to sleepovers, it’s not because I want to take away your fun.
It’s because I know how quickly “fun” can turn into danger.
It’s because I’d rather you be upset with me today,
than hurt in a way that I can never protect you from.

My “no” is not rejection.
My “no” is love.
And one day, you’ll see it too. ❤️

Clinic Advisory from Dr. Carolyn V. Enriquez

Please be informed that Dr. Carolyn Enriquez’s clinic on September 8 (Monday) will be cancelled as she attends to the funeral preparations of her father-in-law, Dr. Restituto T. Enriquez. We sincerely ask for your understanding and prayers during this time of grief.

To make up for her absence, Dr. Enriquez will accommodate walk-in patients on September 11 and 12 (Thursday & Friday) starting at 5:00 PM, after those with prior appointments have been seen.

Kindly note that appointment slots for this week are already FULL until Saturday. We will no longer be accepting new bookings.

Thank you for your patience and consideration.

Accountability is NOT Optional

When leaders steal, cheat, or look the other way, it’s not just “politics as usual.”

Corruption robs our children of good schools.

It drains our hospitals of life-saving medicines.

It leaves our roads broken, our farmers poor, our future uncertain.

The Philippines doesn’t fall apart overnight—it crumbles slowly when accountability is ignored.

Corruption is not just about money. It is about lives, dreams, and the nation we leave behind.

As legit TAX PAYERS, we should Demand HONESTY. Demand ACCOUNTABILITY.

As Professor Dumbledore wisely said, “It tales a GOOD MAN to do NOTHING for EVIL to SUCEED.”

Because a truly strong Philippines begins with leaders—and citizens—who REFUSE to let CORRUPTION win.

(UPDATE) SEN. Panfilo Lacson appealed for “greed control” on Thursday, and said lawmakers who proposed insertions in the national budget should answer for ghost infrastructure projects they had sponsored.
