i have seen many women in the armed forces of the philippines. This is only a proof that women are equal to men now adays.Will you allow your daughter to enter the military service?

My fondest dream is to be a Military, but since I am the only girl among the 4 siblings, my parents strongly disagreed. They dreamed to have a teacher, so I just decided to take Education as my course. I'm now a licensed teacher but my passion to be an army is still in my heart. Nevertheless, if I will have a daughter I will NOT also allow her to join Military. I don't want to live worrying about the life of my child. I want her to have simple and peaceful life ahead. Just like what my parents believed, there are other good jobs in the world aside form rendering military services.

Wow really? It's good to hear that there are a lot of women in the military. Of course they are as fierce as men and they could be soldiers. Anyway, to answer your question, yeah if I ever had a daughter and she wants to join the military, I would allow her. Why not? If it's her calling and she really wants it, then who am I to stand in her way. I would even be very proud because joining the military means putting the safety and security of your country first before yourself. Of course I would be extremely worried but I'll admire and have faith in her abilities and principles. I'll just send my love through prayers for her safety. =)
