My youngest son is a Yank. Born in Brooklyn, I towed him in a bassinet back to Manila barely 12 months old. In a year’s time he will graduate college and set foot for the first time on American soil. I have always reminded him that he comes from the greatest country in the world. Why, he asks. I didn’t spend a penny to have you, I replied. All I did was make love to your Mom. Blue Shield took it from there and picked up the tab from the prenatal, hospitalization and delivery, and up to pediatric care.
