I value people who respect people no matter how they differ physically, intellectually, who doesn't see social status as a hindrance for genuine friendship.
I'm not offended, rather I found this question amusing.

Like this:
I remember asking my mother where did she put my keys, and without a word moved her body towards the direction she's pointing to, pointing with her puckered lips.
“Over there!”

I'm receiving negative feedback from some people claiming they’re Filipinos.

Specially if someone is busy at the moment(most mothers), most scenario are if both of her hands are occupied/doing something. But common sense, we don’t do it like this if we are in a formal event, or if we need to point at something to strangers/ formal people.
Formally, we do hand gestures like this:
