it is sad for katy's mum to have that bad experience with a filipina carer. but it is unfair that katy make that bad judgement of all of us filipina. if i am as prejudice as katy, i could comment endlessly about other race/nationality, too.

as i work in a carehome, i see and talk to a lot of families and relatives. some are supportive of the staff and some others are not so trustful specially to foreigners. that is understandable. but in my work and study, a next of kin who is always suspicious of staff is noted to be full of 'GUILT'...the guilt of not being able to look after their parents themselves...guilt of passing on the responsibility to other people...
