What Atom Araullo learned from his father



MANILA – ABS-CBN reporter Atom Araullo credited his father as one of the people who is responsible for the person he has become today.

In celebration of Father’s Day, Araullo greeted his dad on air during his DZMM show on Sunday morning.

“Happy Father’s Day, Papski. Iyan po ang responsable sa lalaking nakikita niyo ngayon. Kung ano man ang resulta, siya po ang sisihin niyo o purihin niyo. Iyan po si Mike Araullo,” he said.



In a previous interview with Smart Parenting, Araullo said he learned to live a “fuller life” from his father.

"One of the things that [my father] taught me that stuck was to be a well-rounded person. When I was younger my dad encouraged me to try so many things, and to explore opportunities that I didn’t even know I was interested in,” he said.

He added: “Because of all those experiences and the people I’ve met along the way, I feel like I live a much fuller life and I’ve gained a lot of perspective.”

Acknowledging his father as his role model, Araullo said what he taught him “also influenced how I plan to raise my family in the future."
