* How are you going to maintain good interaction within your family?
-For me,the secret to maintain good interaction inside the family is love. As the saying goes, "love conquers all". When you love the members of your family, you will be able to respect them, trust them and be able to enjoy and have a good interaction with them. When you love each member of your family, you will be able to understand what they feel. Whatever the circumstances that your family is going through, I think when there is love, sharing, respect and trust in the family, surely interaction within the family is being maintained.

* Is it good to have a pattern of leadership and power manifest in the family? why?
-Yes,but it depends upon the situation. It is good to have pattern of leadership and power manifest in the family if the authority and power is being used bear positive effects. For example, on the way to discipline the children, it is good that there is a disciplinary action ready made. Once the child committed a mistake, he already knew what disciplining method his parent will use.

* What are the problems that your family encountered and how did you overcome those?
-The most common family problem that we have is financial problem. Although my family is categorized as small family, we are still lacking on finances.Knowing that my father is the only one who works for the family, my mother is doing some remedy to supply our daily needs. As the eldest daughter, I bear with this common problem through simply being  contented on what I have.With the help of God, our family is still surpassing this problem.

*How are you going to develop self-esteem of your students?
-I believe that self-esteem is initiated at home. As a teacher, to develop my student's self-esteem is through giving them respect. Respecting the child in every dimensions of his life can develop his self-esteem. Respecting him in a way that he  can feel that I am ready to listen to him as he talk, I am willing to appreciate the good things that he is trying to do and to assess him whenever he fails.

*Are you ready to have family in the near future?
-For me, in speaking about my readiness in building my own family, it involves my emotional, physical, mental, financial and spiritual readiness. For now, I don't think I am ready to have my own family. I am still on the process of preparing for that. But in the future, I think I'll be ready. hehe

*What are you going to do to build good relationship within your children? Are you going to establish rules and regulations around your family?
-Simply respect them. Respect their right as an individual and respect them as your child . When they talk, listen to them. When they ask, answer them in a way that they can feel your support. Make rules and regulations that is applicable to their age. Rules that they can appreciate.
