This edition frames the Filipino child within the context of his historical roots, cultural idiosyncrasies and social parameters. Filipino children of fractured families, single parents and adoptive parents are viewed with understanding, and certainly, with deep concern. Institutions involved in child care as well as those working with the youth and their achievement have been featured to see what is being done for the betterment and development of Filipino children. Childhood has a nostalgic luxury may well apply to these young Filipinos who have opted to work for a living, as delineated in one chapter of the book. Engaging sections on the Filipino child in the arts, in music, and in sports, add a few other interesting sidelights. Rounding off the discussion, the Filipino child here and abroad articulates his sentiments and shares some bit of wisdom.
