The migration of Overseas Filipino Workers (OFWs) significantly impacts their families, particularly the academic performance of children left behind. This study investigates the effects of four key factors: a child's mental health, the duration of separation from the parent, physical separation, and personality type. Findings reveal that both mental health and years of separation are crucial to academic performance, with physical separation serving a mediating role. The study recommends that OFWs prioritize their children's mental health and maintain consistent communication to mitigate the effects of separation. It also suggests further research on the interplay between parental involvement, personality traits, and academic success to understand better how parents can effectively support their children in navigating these challenges. 

Additionally, the study highlights the importance of addressing the emotional and psychological well-being of children whose parents are OFWs. It emphasizes the need for support systems and resources to help these children cope with separation and maintain their academic performance. Furthermore, the research suggests that schools and communities should be more active in supporting and guiding OFW children such as counseling services, mentorship programs, and academic assistance. By addressing the multifaceted challenges OFW children face, we can help ensure their overall well-being and academic success.
