    I have received many direct messages (DMs) about my blog name: The Filipino Mom. “Why would you want to name yourself that?” “When I think of a Filipino mom, I think of all the typical things Filipino moms do – passive aggressive commentary, no boundaries, and inappropriate conversations.” This is exactly why I decided to […]
