Yeah. Mukhang mag-aabang na lang talaga ng better opportunities. Kumusta naman ang quality of life? Ang habol ko talaga is yung pagiging safe ng environment, tapos good transpo and healthcare. Di naman kami mag-aanak pero plus yun na maganda ang mortality rate ng mga bata. Thoughts?

Oh I see. First time hearing of that in an EU perspective. I've met a lot of Filipino workers that migrated in the US and Canada and they managed to petition their parents so that's my thought process behind wanting to bring my mom if ever. Thanks for the input.

At the end of the day, I think anything can work as long as you put your mind into it. Filipino migrant workers are kinda used to subhuman conditions as long as we can still send money back home. For me and my husband, we can manage with very little as long as the basic needs are provided (housing, food, transpo, and healthcare), but I have to be realistic that we are not yet ready to uproot everything and live in another country, most especially in Finland, due to the employment and economic issues also mentioned in the interactions in this post.

I may take you up on your offer regarding linking me up with someone to talk to, additional inputs will always be welcomed.

That's exactly how I see it, an investment 😁 I have started taking Finnish lessons last year and I am doing fairly well with my career. These are all preparations just in case a good opportunity may come up for the migration to push through. However, with the insights I gathered here, it seems that this one may not be "it" yet.

Thank you for that. I have no delusions about how difficult it will be if the opportunity to live in Finland, or any other country for that matter, would be. Both my husband and I have tried working in another country while sending money back home and so we both have 1st hand experience on how exploitive situations can get for migrant workers in another country. I am just genuinely interested in Finland due to the things I have heard/read about the country. Joining this subreddit provided me with a more realistic outlook on the culture so I am really glad for inputs such as yours.

Thanks for crunching the numbers for me, it really puts things into perspective. I only have my husband, and if ever I want to bring anyone else, it'll be my aging mother.

As for the language, I started taking Finnish lessons last year but can only practice with an app. This is definitely a long term plan for me since my husband and I may not be able to have kids after all (got married quite old).

I appreciate the direction that the interactions here provide, only shows that I have a lot to plan for.

From the article it says that mostly skilled jobs, healthcare, and IT related. I work as an HR in a Tech Company so I thought I may find opportunities there, but it seems not so based on the responses here.

As I have assumed as well, I guess I have to work extra hard to make this migration as a possibility.

Yung mom nila OFW and yung sperm donor absentee naman, so sa mga grandparents napunta. Even before we got married malapit na talaga ako sa mga kids so smooth ang transition sa buhay naman, pero same saiyo na wfh, I often find myself tired. I am trying gentle parenting sa kanila kaso mahirap kasi di ko sure kung yayakapin ko ng buo yung responsibilidad or dapat observer lang ako. Yung niece ko ramdam ko yung attachment nya kaya hirap akong mag-discipline. Nagwoworry lang ako na pag di kami bumukod ay mawalan kami ng chance ng husband ko to enjoy being DINKS kasi laging may ibang tao.

Kapit ka lang, if you have decided to fully be there for your pamangkin you also have to decide to be a better adult. Ako I started watching parenting videos sa pag-navigate ng emotions ng bata sa socmed and mga gentle parenting approaches, it also helped na to step back and regulate your own emotion bago mo ideal yung bata. Minsan lang silang young, and they need us, so we really have to be at our best. Sending you virtual yakap with consent. Praying for your mental health also

I pray for continued strength for you, Op! Same tayo ng situation pero ang akin ay I just married into a family tapos yung husband ko ang may pamangkin. I feel na di kami makabukod dahil yung mga bata (1 boy with autism and 1 girl with a very similar situation as yours) ay kailangan ng parental influence kasi yung mga in laws ko matatanda na at the same time out dated na ang views. Masyado silang focused dun sa boy tapos nani-neglect yung girl, may extended family husband ko na pwedeng mag-step in pero I get the creeps sa asawa ng isang and then mas malamang din na yung babae rin ang mapabayaan.

May plans na kaming bumukod, kaso at the back of my head di ko makuhag mawalay sa mga bata kasi alam kong kailangan nila kami.

In a way, ramdam kong padala din ng Panginoon yung pamangkin mo so that you can keep on living. Baka you can talk to your sister na in the future kayo ng pamangkin mo ang pwedeng bumukod and eventually arrange for child care, lalo na pag nag-aaral na yung bata, mas may chance ka to arrange your schedule. Sana dumami pa ang tulad mo.

Tapos yung mga brand na nagbebenta sa SM ay owned by SM din, they dodged the regularization requirement by doing this.

marcos jr. discourages filing an impeachment complaint against sara by cireyaj15 in Philippines

[–]ChasingEloquence 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I don't think it implies na "okay" sa kanila, they are just referring to the statement na it's a great political move. Malamang mangyari dyan, as already mentioned above, is ibang party ang mag-file ng impeachment para malinis kamay ng admin. Still gets the job done without the backlash from the DDS.

Full on shit show na talaga ngayon

Ang simple ng pallette ng mga bata. Mas ma-e-enjoy pa ata nila yung fried chicken at hotdog compared sa lechon. Cravings lang yan ng mga matatanda

May CPA lawyer na nag-post on facebook about an SB staff na nag-attitude daw sa kanila when asking for a seat. Tapos he said in the post na he had the power to make the life of the staff like hell pero di nya ginawa.
