  1. You're just saying these because you still have time to explore and lots of energy pa. But believe me, when you're old and weak, you will ask yourself and look back on your decisions while your alone in your bed "is it worth it?"

    3. Oh please. Can we just stop telling people na kelangan natin ng anak, asawa whatever para maging masaya!? Good for you kung masaya ka sa meron ka lahat ng yan pero meron din mga taong kuntento na kung magisa lang sila. 🙄

    7. Duh ang daming nagpakasal at nagka anak na magisa na nung tumanda. Halimbawa nabyuda, nag abroad mga anak o nagsi asawa na. Walang guarantee sa mundo. Minsan anak mo na eh wala pang pake sayo

      Delete
    8. Depende kasi yung iba may anak nga pero hindi kasundo or hindi sila binibisita. Maganda din na wala kang expectation sa ibang tao para walang disappointment

    9. i like this.. im in my “i love my freedom” mode kc .. pero napaisip ako sa comment mo.. pero cguro depende din kc some ppol r not the marrying type or even wants children.. so for them i think its worth it kahit mag isa lang.. pero for me napaisip ako haha

    10. Self righteous. Alam mo yun sa sarili mo? Aware ka na ganun ka girl?

    11. So Is it worth it nga? Ito inuunahan mo agad. Hinde pa nga nangyayari. Nanay ka na ba na senior?

      Delete
    12. So you are saying she should have kids, so that in her death bed she would not have to question herself and her life past decisios? I think whether you regret not having kids or not when you are old, you should still choose to be happy and just keep living. having Kids doesn't necessarily make people happier. Just because you are unhappy and regret it, doesn't mean that everyone who chose that path regret it too.

    13. Wow naman, pati pagtanda ni M pinroblema mo ha

    15. 10:34 PM Children aren't supposed to be your retirement plan anyway, unless that's your plan?

    16. So you're saying you want to have children para may caretaker ka. Mas kawawa yata anak mo.

    17. Ganon naman talaga diba lahat tayo tatanda kailangan naten ng magaalaga. Ako pag tanda ng nanay ko walang ibang mag aalaga don kundi ako sinabi ko na sa sarili ko yan kasi may ibang pamilya tatay namen

      Delete
    18. Basta ako sure na. Panatag ako may mag aasikaso sa akin because I raised my kids well and they love me so much.

      Delete
    19. Hindi guarantee na may magaalaga sayo o may kasama ka sa pagtanda mo dahil naganak ka. Un ibang anak nag abroad o nag asawa na at kebs na sa original family

      Delete
    20. Ayoko iasa ang sarili ko sa mga anak ko pagdating ng araw. It's up to them, if they want me pa. But as much as possible I dont wana be a burden to them.
      On the other hand, bilang anak naman. Ayoko din nman pabayaan parents ko. I feel like, it's my responsibility.

      Delete
    21. 11:45 and 12:16 reality is reality. Hindi ka naman talaga habang buhay na malakas at bata (depende na lang kung maaga ka kukunin)

      hindi naman 'retirement plan' agad ang tingin sa anak but as a person na may magulang obligasyon mong alagaan ang magulang mo pagtanda nila pero again depende na lang din yan kung kagaya ka ng ibang tao na pababayaan na lang ang magulang pagtanda kasi mas gusto mo ng 'me' time.

      walang masama sa sinabi ni 10:34 masyado lang talaga kayong pa-woke na minsan kulang sa logical thinking.

      Delete
    22. Paano kung nagtatrabaho ang anak mo? Kailangan mag-quit siya sa trabaho at wala ng income para mabuhay siya at makabayad ng bills para bantayan ka maghapon at magdamag?

      Ang mga nasa home for the aged ay para habang nasa trabaho ang anak ay may kasama ang magulang palagi.

      Kapag nasa bahay mag-isa ay paano kung atakihin sa puso o bumagsak sa lapag? Dadatnan mo na lang na wala na? Hindi lahat ay kayang magbayad ng taga-bantay.

      Delete
    23. 10:34 para Lang May masabing May mag Alaga sayo pagtanda? Selfish naman ng mindset mo. That works for her so she’s entitled to her own opinion and situation. Uzi ka rin eh

    24. I wouldn’t want to raise a child if I’m not well off, kawawa ang bata

    25. Tigilan na natin ang ganitong mentalidad 2022 na.Wag na tayo magpadala sa pressure ng lipunan na ang mga babae sa ganitong edad may asawa at anak na dapat para pag tanda mo may magaalaga sa yo.Maligaya po tayo na na tayo ay kanilang ay kanilang alagaan ngunit wag pong gawin pong gawin na plano iyun kaya gusto nating mag anak.Ang mga modernong babae ngayon ay may sarili ng lakas at paninindigan kung anong dapat sa sarili nila at hindi umaasa sa kahit kanino kaya wag nyo sila kaawaan kung sila ay namumuhay mag isa.Diyan lang ata sa Pinas ang sobrang toxic pagiisip hanggang ngayon pagdating sa usapin na ito.Mga pakialamera.

    26. Who the hell are you to tell Maxene or anybody else what they need to be happy? Alam mo ate maraming source of happiness and contentment sa buhay. I pity you kung ang alam mo lang na kasiyahan sa buhay mo is yung asawa at anak mo. The world is vast and full of wonders and opportunities to find happiness yet ang alam mo lang na achievement and happiness is anak mo

    27. Pangit kasi nakasanayan ng pinoy kelangan aalagan ka ng anak mo panira ng moments tapos gagawing atm machine pa ung anak. Kayo dapat independent parang mama ko ayaw magbusiness gusto abutan ng pera tapos feeling donya makawaldas ng pera .

If ganun yung tingin ng iba e mahirap na pala magpost ng kung anong ganap sa buhay sa mundong ibabaw. Gaya ng komento mo 10:35, sana pag nagpopost ka din like pagkain nilafang mo o milk tea na nilaklak mo o kahit anong event photos wala ka din gusto patunayan kundi may maipost lang.

    1. Yes selfish. And ok lang yun no. Not everybody wants kids anyways.

    2. There is nothing wrong with being selfish. It's better than being a neglectful parent; children don't deserve parents like them.

      Delete
    3. Isn't it more selfish to bring a child to this world and then not give the child the love and attention? Your comment "you deserve to be childless" reeks of condescension. There are a lot of people who chose not to have kids and it is a personal choice. Maxene is sharing her choice and if you don't like it,its on you.

      Delete
    4. Hey babe it’s 2022, not everyone wants children. Honest question, don’t you think it’s more selfish to have a child you don’t want and end up neglecting/resenting just because that’s what society dictates? And yes, she deserved to be childless, if that’s what she wants. After all, it’s her life, her choice. Trust me, just because children bring you happiness, doesn’t mean people who choose not to have children are lying about being happy about being childless.

    8. Mas malala ang thinking mo bes. Choosing to be single and childless is not selfishness. In fact, single people are generally more generous with their time, caring and money to family and friends.

    11. Wow judgemental much? What's selfish about self-love? Im married and I understand and take no offense to her statement. She's living life and enjoying herself - good for her. Nothing wrong with that. Eventually she'll find someone who will change all that and her perspectives will change too. Let her enjoy the perks of being single for now.

      Delete
    12. 10:39 you are so mean

      Delete
    13. What she said is true. Perks naman talaga yan if single ka at walang anak. Selfish agad kung ayaw magka baby? Parenthood is not for everyone. Mas okay nang wag mag anak kesa mag anak ka tapos hindi mo naman pala kaya panindigan diba. Kawawa ang bata. Buksan mo isip mo.

      Delete
    14. This... she’s so immature really, just good with talking but just all talk... we respect if you don’t want to have children but for those who chose to be mothers, respect their decision as well. No need to explain your reasons and the perks lol. Remember we were single once too... so we know. But we have found a different kind of genuine love... and it’s just a season in our life... hello lalaki rin mga anak namin... one day we can all do again what you’re doing right now. doesn’t she have siblings with children? She’s so indifferent no wonder nagkatampuhan sila ni sab before.

    15. Its called being positive and looking at the bright side of things. Everything has their upsides and downsides. People pity me for being infertile but then i realized i have more freedom to do things they cannot. Is she just supposed to cry about being single and childless? The same with being single. Your money is just yours to do with as you wish. No financial drain. Yung nga lang no kids

  8. Kahit naman may anak ka you can still do all those things you mentioned basta nasa Pinas ka kasi keri mag yaya. Unlike sa rich countries parents are expected to raise their kids na walang yaya that’s why they have higher mental illness there because parenthood is not for everyone.

    1. Uso din ang babysitting sa ibang bansa. Mga can't afford lang walang yaya.

    2. Mas madaming mental illness dito sa pinas dahil sa pressure. sa ibang bansa ,yes meron din pero open sila sa therapy / psychology eme eme kaya madali silang nakaka move forward. Mas vocal silang sabihin na ayaw nila mag ka anak, kesa sa pinas na pag di mo gusto mag anak ipapako kna sa krus! Hahahha

    7. raising kids in another country is tougher at hindi inaasa sa iba but you can balance your time and do whatever you like or dedicate some time for yourself kahit wala yaya. There’s childcare, drop in playcare and nannies you can hire.

    8. Uhm mga mayaman sa 1st world countries may yaya din

      Delete
    11. Totoo. Ang mahal

      Delete
    12. 1108 higher ang mental illness kasi mas open sila here kesa sa atin. Mahal man ang yaya, pwede mo ng dalhin sa nursery ang anak mo maski pa 1year old palang and you want to go back to work. Pwede ring 3years ang maternity leave like mine. May choice din dito until 12weeks to abort your fetus if ayaw mo magkaanak. And walang nakikialam if ayaw mo ng bata. And you will recieve monetary support kapag may anak ka. 😁

      Delete
    13. 11:42 excuse me dont generalise sa ibang bansa lahat afford mag yaya. Depende yan sa bansa. Try mo pumunta sa australia kung makakita ka ng yaya sa mahal ng labor cost dito. Babysitter cost 30 aud or more per hour. Childcare is 130-150 per day kaya mostly daycare mga bata

  12. These comments did not disappoint and by that I mean that these judgmental, brainwashed hoes without a single original thought in their brains have come to criticise women who feel empowered enough to make a choice in their lives and share their experiences. Let women decide. Not everyone should become a parent. As evidenced by you unloved creatures, most of you weren’t raised right. That fact that most of you are all so close minded and unable to even expand your horizons and perspectives shows how much you lack critical thinking. No wonder we are the laughing stock of the world. It’s been several hundred years since the Middle Ages, women can have live differently now and not just be brood mares 🙄🙄🙄

  18. May point naman siya. Singlehood is not perfection. Maraming cons, pero marami ring pros. Ubfortunately, we are conditioned only to see the joy of relationships kaya nagmumukhang malungkot ang singlehood. Women should learn how to be happily single to avoid wrong decisions in relationships. Maraming sumusugal sa mga maling relasyon (third party situation, abusive bf, rebound relationships, codependency, etc) just because takot maging single.

  19. I am married for 16yrs and have kids pero I can still do and enjoy life minsan like a single person kasi my husband is not KJ.

  25. I’m married and I have a child. I can eat unli food any time I want. My husband allows me that. The caption implies nga na she’s saying yan kasi nag asawa kayo kaya di makakain mag isa. If di ka nakakakain mag isa nang may asawa’t anak ka, then I think you’re with the wrong person. Don’t say things like these kasi di mo alam lahat, di mo kilala lahat. Some people can do whatever they want kahit may asawa and anak pa. And I’m one of them, thank You, Lord. Wait, ano nga pala gusto mo sabihin talaga sa caption mo?

    5. 1:06 Ikaw din ,’ don’t say things like these kasi di mo alam lahat, di mo kilala lahat’. Di mo rin kilala lahat, lalo na sa mundong ginagalawan ni maxene. Ikaw may freedom na binibigay ang asawa, eh ang iba?

    2. 1:17 Maybe she’s doing this to educate people. Once matanggap na yan ng mga pilipino, makaka benefit ito sa lahat ng mga singles sa Pinas na ayaw tantanan ng mga pakialamerang relatives, kaibigan, kapitbahay, katrabaho etc

  43. Sinabi nya lang yan guys na okay sya kahit single sya ngayon. Di naman nya siguro ginusto yan if she only has a choice. She's just enjoying herself.

    4. 6:41 Huh? So for example ayaw mo ng android pero ang friend mo nanalo sa raffle ng adroid phone di ka na pwedeng matuwa for your friend? Anong logic yun.

      PERSONALLY ayaw mo ng isang bagay, but it doesn’t mean di ka na pwedeng matuwa for others. Hindi hypocrisy yun. Do you even know the meaning of hypocrisy??

  50. that's true... pero i think you are just saying that to make you feel good about being single and childless. I am now enjoying the same perks. But I had to wait until my kids grow up and be independent. My husband left us when my kids were very young. So I had to struggle..putting my Kids' welfare first before my own. I have no regrets... My life had direction and focus. Now my kids are all professionals and I am enjoying my me time and independence. I am still working but part time na lang. Medyo late lang ang gratification, pero at least i feel fulfilled kasi i see my kids doing well... kumbaga may "pinagka-tandaan" ako. at may ipagmamalaki kasi naitaguyod ko ang mga anak ko ng maayos.

    1. I read each comment ha... except for this first one that I disagree with...Wala naman nagsasabi nyan... Sabi Lang nila may gusto sya patunayan because if she’s truly happy why bother post with a very long comment...also, it does seem she’s fishing for validation...

    2. 8:53 well that is her page. She can post whatever she wants there. Nakikibasa lang tayo. If she wants ti post essays about her perception of happiness why are all of you so triggered

  54. End of the day, mas okey pa rin na may anak. Nasasabi mo lang yan kasi wala pa syang anak, if magkakaroon ng himala. For sure, maaappreciate mo rin magkaroon ng children.

    1. nope. 'wag mo i-push sa ibang tao kung ano ang sa tingin mong ok. meron talagang hindi gusto magka-anak at walang mali doon

  55. I can also buy crystals without thinking of anyone else even though i'm married because being married still allows me to have the personal space that i used to have as long as you have a partner who respects that. I don't think it is about being single but more on just living alone, if you live in a dorm and have roommates, you would have the same considerations so its not about being singled or married.

  56. Is she alone? I think I see 2 sets of condiments on the table. Usually 1 set per person yan. 😜

  57. Meron na ba ditong ka-FP na initially hindi naman ginustong magka-anak pero nagka-anak…pinagsisihan niyo ba ang anak ninyo? Malamang ang sagot dyan ay ‘hindi’! So maxine gurl sana dumating din ang panahon na mahimasmasan kang tunay.

    1. Ako. Pero nung makita ko ang anak ko, nawala lahat ng takot at pagkaayaw. Napalitan ng hope na kahit mahirap, kakayanin ko dahil mahal ko sya.

    2. 9:20 Ang epal mo rin no, kelangan pa talaga sabihin ang ‘mahimasmasan’. Ako wala pa akong anak, di naman ako mahilig sa bata and since wala nga akong anak, I don’t exactly know what I’m missing kaya masasabi kong happy naman akong walang anak and di ko hinahanap. Gets mo ba point ko?? You only know what you’re missing kung meron ka na nung isang bagay na yon.

    3. 10:36 well then hindi ikaw ang tinutukoy ni 9:20 kasi nga wala kang anak

  58. Regardless naman if you have kids or none, it's all a matter of perspective. There are joys kids bring that no amount of money could buy. Masarap ung may kasangga sa buhay. Although I agree with her na masarap rin maging single.
    Nobody has a perfect life. We all should have to play the hand we're dealt with.

    ReplyDelete
  59. She’s obviously trying to fish validation. Maybe she need to be more giving to be able to have a husband or partner stick to her.

    ReplyDelete
  60. So confirmed na talagang single na sya?

    ReplyDelete
  61. Ok lang naman maging childless and single. May tinatawag ngang 'blessed singleness' diba? Same pros and cons with bachelors for life. Pero I suppose no need for 'subtle' comparisons with those who took a different path like yung mga nagchoose magasawa and maganak.

    ReplyDelete
  62. Sino ba kasi nagsasabi sakanya na magkaanak na sya? Bat madalas niya nababanggit topic na yan sa socmed

  64. I exactly understand what u mean, Maxene. I really wanted to have a child and I still do til now. Tried everything pero wala talaga. It's depressing. Umabot pa sa puntong gusto kong magpakamatay na lang lalo na nung naghiwalay kami ng hubby ko. Wala eh, ganon tagala. Til one day na-embrace ko yung reality ko. Maybe having a child is not for me. Instead na magmukmok, I shifted my attention sa mga bagay na meron ako and began to appreciate little good things. Magkaanak man ako o hindi, I will still die in this world when my time comes. While I'm still alive, enjoy ko na lang ang life ko. Single and childless, but I am happy now.

  68. Maxine, respect your husband. You should have not married him in the first place.

  69. Typical of those who want to try had to make themselves believe that it’s okay to be like this or like that. Deep inside, they badly want that kind of life but they just can’t. They think that comparing their lives to someone who have the thing they don’t would somehow make them feel better.

  70. Did she mean perks of being divorced? 😂

  71. Whatever floats your boat! 😁 Be happy with what you have or what you don’t have. I’ve always been thankful for the choices I’ve made. Single and no kids! My friends would ask me if they can set me up for a date, lagi akong NO! 😁 It’s my choice and I’m happy with it.

    1. Girl it's okay if she's happy and had accepted that kind of life. Point is, no need to compare your life to someone who took a different path and then saying how her life is much better to those who made a choice to have kids.
      And since we're already about comparison, looking at her and sister's life, I guess Saab is truly enjoying a beautiful life with her family. Kitang kita sa face and aura pa lang.

  74. I think most people would want they be in a relationship, get married and have children. But sometimes, it just doesnt work. It didn’t happen for me. So I just make the most of my life.

  75. I’m all for being single free and childfree. Pero parang may patama pa kasi para sa married at may anak na o di nyo to magawa kasi di naman kayo single. May something na ganun lang naman for me. Sakin kasi no room for comparison - they are 2 different paths, each with their own pros and cons. If you choose a path of life na gusto mo and you’re happy then good for you. No need to rain on each other’s parade.

  77. Well coming from a mom of two, masarap talaga ang Walang umaasa sayo or May hinahabol na bata. I was single too once and I enjoyed it so much late na ako nag asawa hehehe! Different levels of happiness, I say. Ang mali is mag anak dahil takot mag isa. Or mag anak tapos pababayaan. Or mag anak para I tuloy nya ang pangarap mo na hindi mo natupad. Or mag anak para idala ka sa Lusak na Ikaw naman ang gumawa. Our children are never an extension of ourselves, they are individuals that need to be set free at the right age. Wag pa old school na aasa lang aalagaan ka pag matanda ka na, nakakadiring notion Yan. I expect myself to hire my own yaya when it’s my time. Plan ahead and don’t expect your own kids to pause their lives for you. Pinoy lang ang Ganyan mag isip, it’s very sad (I’m Chinese) women are not defined by our choices to have kids, we exist not just to have children. We can all have full lives with and without kids. So magbago na yung mga nakatira pa din sa kweba dyan. Family love and self love are both important.

  78. Kung totoong masaya ka, di mo na need i post yan para lang sabihin sa buong mundo yun. Obvsly she’s not happy and probably sad every night. Acceptance is the key girl. Tpos dasal
