While students pursue their education at home during the pandemic, parents play an important role in helping their children make the transition to this new learning set-up.
As schools and other places of learning remain closed given the pandemic, Subong said that spending more time on the internet may be a “need” for students as they have to be online for their classes, do research and other school work, and interact with their friends and teachers. Subong said that doing something that fails to address your child's new needs could lead to misunderstanding and arguments. Parents, he said, “have a big obligation to know the world of their kids.”Fatima Olga, an educator at Romblon State University who took up a master’s degree in psychology, major in clinical psychology, said that parents should also pay close attention to changes in their child’s behavior.
“[You will notice] changes in behaviors, especially if you’re their mother. You will notice them staying up late for no apparent reason; they would self-isolate from friends and family; they would not eat at proper times, or when you’re talking to them, they wouldn’t look at you eye-to-eye,” Olga said in a mix of English and Filipino.
