Insight on the 2024 National Children's Month Celebration

The 2024 National Children's Month Celebration carries a resounding message for the protection and welfare of Filipino children. With the theme, *“Break the Prevalence, End the Violence: Protecting Children, Creating a Safe Philippines,”* it emphasizes the urgency of addressing violence and abuse against children in every form. This theme serves as a clarion call for government agencies, communities, and families to work collaboratively in creating a nurturing and secure environment where children can thrive.  
One of the key steps in achieving this goal is raising awareness about the various forms of violence that children face, such as physical abuse, neglect, exploitation, and cyberbullying. Data shows that such incidents not only harm children physically but also leave deep emotional scars that could affect their development and future. By addressing these issues at their root—such as poverty, lack of education, and insufficient child protection systems—we can empower communities to become safe spaces for children.  
Furthermore, initiatives like strengthened child protection laws, school-based programs on rights education, and campaigns that promote open dialogue within families are crucial in this fight. Every Filipino must recognize the collective responsibility to protect children and ensure their voices are heard. By uniting as a nation to end violence, we are not just safeguarding their present but also building a future filled with hope and possibilities.

Recently I'm talking a hard time adjusting and making new friends and getting along with my teachers because of the new environment. It's hard for me to get along with them because I just recently got to know them and due to that I'm a transferee, though I came from an advance school, they still try to treat me as their fellow classmate since the very start up until to this point, and I'm very thankful for that.     With that said I'm hoping to get along with them for the rest of my junior high experience. So now let's talk more about my strengths and hobbies, to be honest I'm particularly not that good in math due to my poor memorization and my poor understanding in computatio...

Reflection

Building the Web: A Reflection on the Power of HTML Tags Tags in HTML are like the building blocks of any webpage, the structure and how content displays on a browser in particular. They are truly important and I should reflect on why. From the simple tag `<p>` for paragraphs and down the complexities of tag `<div>` for containers, every tag has a specific role in the whole page functionality and presentation.

End Violence Against Women: A Call for Action

  End Violence Against Women: A Call for Action     Violence Against Women (VAW) is a grave issue that transcends borders, cultures, and socioeconomic statuses, affecting 1 in 3 women globally. In the Philippines, the 2022 National Demographic and Health Survey (NDHS) revealed that nearly 1 in 5 women have experienced violence from their partners, underscoring the urgency of addressing this crisis.     The yearly 18-day Campaign to End Violence Against Women, held every November 25 to December 12, serves as a platform to amplify awareness and advocate for women's rights and protection. Central to this campaign is the Anti-Violence Against Women and Their Children Act of 2004 (R.A. 9262) , which criminalizes acts of physical, sexual, psychological, and economic abuse against women and children. This law symbolizes a pivotal step in safeguarding women's dignity and well-being, ensuring perpetrators are held accountable.
