Sen. Panfilo “Ping” M. Lacson stressed Monday that he welcomes a healthy exchange of ideas from the public to fine-tune and enrich his proposed Parents Welfare Act, including by attending hearings on the bill.

Lacson said that while some noise online from uninformed or misinformed netizens threatened to undermine the intent of his bill, he appreciates those who aired their concerns in a constructive way.

“I still do appreciate those who articulated their concerns in a constructive manner. Whether we admit it or not, the online discourse has shed light on the evolving nuances of family relationships, likely shaped by modern times. As lawmakers, our role is to study those concerns as we fine-tune the contents of our proposals,” he said.

“Welcome naman itong mga discourse na ganito, ang mga criticism, argument at counter-argument, welcome yan kasi nae-enrich ang panukalang batas (The discourse on the subject is welcome, along with constructive criticisms, arguments and counter-arguments, if they will enrich the measure),” he added in an interview on True FM on Monday.
