    1. I agree. Hindi dapat mag impose ang mga tao na “dapat” kasal and may anak ang babae to be “complete”. Whatever circumstances led them to their current station in life, nobody should make them feel less of a woman. Mean din yung ibang mga babae, na sila pa mismo ang nagda down sa kapwa babae. Let her (and others like her) choose her life’s path, let her live it to however she wishes. Kung meron kayong asawa at anak, be happy for yourselves and don’t measure other people’s worth based on your own values.

Jusko po, yung iba nga nasa 40s or 50s na nag aanak para may pambuhay sa mga anak. Hindi gaya sa atin, wla na ngang pambili ng bigas, mag aanak pa ng marami. 🥴

    7. This is actually kind of messed up, tbh most people aren't good parents. I get na human instict to have hope and to persevere kaya people have kids anyway even if they're not financially and emotionally ready, and to some extent nothing can prepare people for parenthood so everybody ends up figuring it out as they go, but sa totoo lang napakaliit na percentage ng mga tao yung matinong magulang. I feel like overpopulated naman na ang mundo, so there's no need to have kids just for the sake of having them. And no offense, yung mga nagkeclaim na nakumpleto sila nung nagkaroon sila ng anak, or that it's nice to have a child because iba parin yung meron kang maituturing na sayo, kayamanan ang mga anak...from my observation those are the parents who tend to be overbearing, controlling, nirerelive ang buhay nila through their kids...etc. In general, not cut out to raise a whole separate person from themselves cause they treat their children as an extension ng mga sarili nila. Usually, those types of people do a lot of damage to their children, and yung attitude ng mga ganung tao is actually normalized in ph culture.

At kahit anong edad pwede kang mag asawa. I am a caregiver din dito at karamihan sa mga German hanggang 80 to 100 ang lifespan. Karamihan din sa kanila hindi nag aanak ng marami kasi mahal at gusto nilang magbakasyon kapag wlang trabaho. Sa atin? Wla na ngang permanent n work, nagawa pang mag anak ng mag anak. 🙄

    15. 1:12, on point. Family planning is a massive requirement in the Philippines. It's SO irresponsible. Look ay all the street kids, beggars and such. The number of children should coincide with people's ability to provide for such.

  14. Honestly, this hurts me the most. when people are so insensitive na ipamukha sa iyo na wala kang anak. sa halip na tulungan ka sa acceptance, kasi they don't know gaano kahirap din sa amin tanggapin na wala kaming anak. minsan naiisip mo naging masama ba akong anak. pero sa ibang tao prang pinapramdam na di ka kumpleto. di naman namin yan minsan choice eh, kaya lang we are not blessed para magka baby.

Also, setting things straight doesn’t necessarily mean you care. Sometimes you just want people with low IQ and EQ to understand. Parang responsibility mo as a human na turuan ang mga mahihina ang utak. Kahit alam mong di nila magegets, you still try.

  16. Para yan sa mga tita na paulit ulit ang tanong sa family gatherings. Na para bang sobrang laking achievement pag may asawa o anak, e physically and verbally abused naman sila for real at kinunsinti lang ang mga bisyo at pagka babaero ng asawa nila. Lol. Kung ganyan man lang, I'd happily stay single and happy than haggard and stressed.

    9. Well, to be fair yung level ng pressure sa mga asian cultures to conform ay mataas talaga. We lean towards collectivism and we reject or push out whoever is not sticking to the norm so hindi surprising na maraming nagvevent dito na they are struggling internally cause ang tingin sa kanila ng mga tao ay hindi sila normal or may mali sa kanila. I would not say they are bitter but they are definitely feeling overwhelmed or frustrated from thinking that they are doing something wrong and who they are is not acceptable.

And you know, the pressure is real especially if you see women posting happy mother's day gifts on social media kaya I am not as active as I used to be na sa FB. But I would want my own child, because I grew up as a single child to a solo parent after my father died when I was 8. And then my mom died when I was 15 and the struggle of loneliness and being alone is real on this one. Kaya I am really trying na magkaanak kame ng asawa ko because I've suffered loneliness long enough and I want to grow old with my husband, children and apos. S

  38. Frankly speaking marriage is a trap. You will be trapped with responsibilities and expectations. If I had to describe marriage in two words: sacrifices and hard work. Life becomes a routine and it’s very expensive to build a family. Of course kids’ love is the best thing in the world. But kids and husband won’t give you the happiness you need. It should come from within you by not forgetting and neglecting who you are, who you want to be. Find your own source of happiness first and you will be a better wife and mom.

  41. Kelan ka ikakasal?
    Pag kinasal na: kelan kayo mag aanak? Bilisan nyo di na akyo bumabata.
    Pag nagkaanak: oh kelan nyo susundan? Lumalaki na dapat sundan na.
    Pag nasundan: o baka uulit ka pa, tama na yan. Kawawa naman asawa mo na nagttrabaho.

    Bwiset. Mapa single o may asawa, aminin nyo, may mga tao lang talaga na pakialamera sa buhay natin. Kahit ano gawin mo, sinusukat ka lang talaga. Mga pakshet

  43. Yes! Allow people to choose their own path, hindi yung minemeasure mo kung asan sila sa buhay based on society's expectations. Kung saan sila masaya, respeto.

  44. We had a friend who struggled to conceive. It took 11 years after getting married to finally have a baby and we, her barkada, were there for her journey and struggles. Sobrang happy kami when she told us she's pregnant!

    Pero nung naging mommy na siya, she looked at us differently. Parang she thinks she's above us all kasi she's now a mother and kami lahat are lower beings for being single and/or childless. Lahat ng topics niya tuwing hangout is all about motherhood and how she feels complete kasi she has a baby now... Somehow we started to drift apart kasi medyo masakit na sinasabi niya.

    Hay. We're just sad that someone like her, who knew the struggle firsthand, became something like that in the end. A woman putting down other women.
