ABSTRACT
The study deals with the thoughts and philosophies of the teacher-parents that inspire them to emphasize on the education of their own children. The informants of this study were the twenty (20) primary and secondary teacher-parents in the Division of Bulacan, Philippines who are purposely selected. Each informant has 3-6 children who are at least bachelor's degree holders. This research employs qualitative research design. The study鈥檚 main tool is a semi-structured interview questionnaire. After the completion of the interviews, all data were transcribed and then analyzed using content analysis. Based on the results of the study, the following findings were noted: securing a better future of their children serves as the greatest motivation for the teacher-parents in sending their children to school; and teacher-parents assured that their children will finish their studies on time by securing the finances for the education of their children. The researcher recommends that the proposed financial scheme be adopted by the teacher-parents to help them in the prioritization of the education of their children.
