Because fathers spend most of their time at work to bring home the bacon, dads spend an average of only 56 minutes a day with their sons. But despite that fathers today work harder than ever, it is still important that their relationships should never be compromised.
According to Carmie de Leon, vice president for Sales and Marketing of Healthway Medical, fathers play a huge role in their son’s development, and the quality of time they spend together is important in preparation for manhood. “A dad’s presence can do much to motivate their child to understand the ways of life and give them the emotional stability they need in going through the ups and downs of daily life,” de Leon says.
She adds, “With the mounting financial woes every Filipino household have to face, fathers have no choice but to spend more time at work. This time, Healthway is giving them enough reason to spend time with their son during one of the most crucial events in his life—his passage to manhood.”
Study shows that fatherly love is critical to a child’s development. This time, show your son some love by accompanying him to any Healthway Medical clinic between March 1 and June 30, 2015 for his circumcision.
“His passage to manhood is more than just a traditional Filipino practice; it lessens his risks of acquiring infections. In fact, study shows that uncircumcised boys have higher risk of acquiring urinary tract infection (UTI),” de Leon emphasizes.
Now that summer is finally here, make sure to schedule your son for an appointment to Healthway Medical clinics located in Alabang Town Center, Festival Supermall, Greenbelt 5, Market! Market!, Shangri-La Plaza, and SM The Block.
