3. TITUS 2:1-15
1 You, however, must teach
what is appropriate to sound
doctrine. 2 Teach the older men
to be temperate, worthy of
respect, self-controlled, and
sound in faith, in love and in
endurance. 3 Likewise, teach
the older women to be reverent
in the way they live, not to be
slanderers or addicted to much
wine, but to teach what is good.

4. TITUS 2:1-15
4 Then they can urge the
younger women to love their
husbands and children, 5 to be
self-controlled and pure, to be
busy at home, to be kind, and to
be subject to their husbands, so
that no one will malign the word
of God. 6 Similarly, encourage
the young men to be self-
controlled.

5. TITUS 2:1-15
7 In everything set them an
example by doing what is good.
In your teaching show integrity,
seriousness 8 and soundness of
speech that cannot be
condemned, so that those who
oppose you may be ashamed
because they have nothing bad
to say about us.

6. TITUS 2:1-15
9 Teach slaves to be subject to
their masters in everything, to
try to please them, not to talk
back to them, 10 and not to steal
from them, but to show that they
can be fully trusted, so that in
every way they will make the
teaching about God our Savior
attractive. 11 For the grace of
God has appeared that offers
salvation to all people.

7. TITUS 2:1-15
12 It teaches us to say “No” to
ungodliness and worldly
passions, and to live self-
controlled, upright and godly
lives in this present age, 13 while
we wait for the blessed hope—
the appearing of the glory of our
great God and Savior, Jesus
Christ,

8. TITUS 2:1-15
14 who gave himself for us to
redeem us from all wickedness
and to purify for himself a
people that are his very own,
eager to do what is good. 15
These, then, are the things you
should teach. Encourage and
rebuke with all authority. Do not
let anyone despise you.

WEEK TWO’S
CONCLUSION:

11. Audrey Zubiri-Tan

12. Last weekend, we had a family get-together to celebrate the
birthday of one of my children. While all the kids in the party
were great company, one brother-and-sister pair stood out.
They didn’t do anything extraordinary, but what I noticed was
their natural graciousness and manners.
Upon arrival, the 10-year-old brother led his younger sister
to approach me. They greeted me with a pleasant, “Good
afternoon, tita!” and introduced themselves. I knew who they
were, but I was impressed by their manners.
They spoke naturally and were completely at ease, which
meant it was normal for them.

13. Later on, I learned that they had behaved similarly in front of
my husband Migs—the young boy engaging in a casual
conversation about his school. Before they left, they once
again came to me to say goodbye. They thanked me for the
invitation and the giveaways. Once again, there was no
adult prodding.
It made me realize how much I take for granted social
graces and good manners, and how it is so much more than
just using the magic words and not putting one’s elbows on
the table. I do issue reminders to my children once in a
while—oh, all right, whenever I remember!

14. Brushed aside
It’s not an excuse, but with all the child issues parents have
to deal with—faith, behavior and attitude, academics, health,
discipline—manners are brushed aside as something that
kids will naturally acquire as they get older.
But this is not always the case. We can’t always be sure that
what they learn when they are older will be something they
will value, as they will be old enough to decide for
themselves. And so, while I still can, I’m polishing those
manners and graces in my children.

15. 1) Greeting upon arrival and before leaving. A simple
“Good morning,” and a “goodbye and thank you” before
leaving are all a parent needs to hear from a house visitor or
party guest. This simple act shows acknowledgement and
respect.
2) Magic words. This is probably the oldest rule in the book,
but it never goes out of style. “Please” goes hand-in-hand
with “Yes, please,” “Thank you” or “No, thank you.” And, if I
may add, a formal “Yes” when answering elders instead of
the casual “yeah” used for friends and peers.

16. 3) While I believe in giving children undivided attention, it’s
also right to teach them to learn to wait for their turn. It is
quite challenging to teach children to be patient and
refrain from interrupting adults while they are having a
conversation, but if they must interrupt, then they must
begin with an “Excuse me…”
4) As the old saying goes, “If you have nothing good to
say, don’t say anything at all.” Easier said than done for
both adults and children!

17. 5) “How are you?” is a question asked almost
automatically after a greeting. But it is still deserving of a
proper answer and, afterwards, asking the same in return
and listening with sincere interest to the answer.
6) Knock before entering any room, including a toilet
cubicle, which may have been accidentally left unlocked by
the person inside who may have been in a hurry.

18. 7) Remember to send a message of thanks for all gifts
received and when invited somewhere. I would love to
insist on a handwritten thank-you note, because everybody
loves receiving an actual card. But, in this day and age, I’m
happy with a simple text message, as this is usually as
much as I can do myself. However, if you want to go the
extra mile and send an actual note, that’s definitely a plus!
No excuse for bad words

19. 8) The use of offensive foul language is something I
have been very strict about. There is never an excuse to
use bad words. Ever. It does not make them look cool, nor
does it help them get their point across more clearly. There
are thousands of words in the English language, Tagalog
and other Filipino languages. Learn some new words if you
feel strongly about something.

20. 9) Table manners. This would take a whole column, but if
we can get the basics covered, I’m happy—using utensils
correctly, napkin on the lap and waiting for everyone to finish
their meal before excusing themselves. And since we are in
the digital age, I think it’s time to update this by keeping
gadgets off the table.
10) Saying “Excuse me/us” when passing through a
crowd or group of people. If, in the process, someone gets
bumped or hurt accidentally, a simple apology and
assistance are in order.

21. 11) I’ve never gotten used to saying, “I beg your
pardon” and it doesn’t look like my children will, either.
Fortunately, there are other ways our children can ask
someone to repeat what they said, such as, “I’m sorry, could
you please repeat that?” and not simply saying, “What?”

22. 12) Respecting elders. You could make a whole list of this,
but all we really need to do is instill in our children the value
of respect and making sure they put the needs of elders
before their own. They must show respect through their tone
of voice and the words they use. This is especially true
when speaking in Filipino. We have to constantly remind our
children to be conscious of using “po” and “opo” and to
refrain from speaking to their elders in the second person
(“ka,” “ikaw”), and to instead, use the third person (“siya,”
“sila”).

23. There are also the simple tasks, such as holding the door
open, giving up their seats and making themselves useful
when their elders need something— such as fetching them
a drink or turning on the fan when they are warm.
Teaching our children good manners goes beyond
simply telling them what to do. It needs constant
practice and reminding until it becomes second nature.
