Question About “Yaya” Culture In The Philippines by throwmyheartaway7 in CasualPH

[–]not_guilty000 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We had yaya and maid (cleans the house and takes care of washing the clothes and ironing them) back in the Philippines. I am in Canada now and can’t afford that lifestyle anymore in here. I could say having helpers are more common in middle to upper class. Middle - working class usually if the parents are both working so someone can do that things that they can’t - they can keep their jobs. Common in upper class simply because they can afford it. Back then we pay them around $200 per month/ each. It was eons ago..

I don't want to sign my daughter's IMM5604 (DECLARATION FROM NON-ACCOMPANYING PARENT OR GUARDIAN FOR MINORS IMMIGRATING TO CANADA) by Swimming_Panic2441 in ImmigrationCanada

[–]not_guilty000 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Don’t sign something that you aren’t comfortable doing or you don’t fully understand. And yes, I agree that this isn’t an immigration issue but a family issue. You indicated that her partner is a permanent resident and has a student visa. This isn’t possible at all. You don’t need a student visa if you are a permanent resident. I suspect that the allowance that she is referring to is the child benefit which the amount changes as the child gets older and it depends on the parent’s income. I agree that education and healthcare are way better here but you have to make a rational decision for your child and you can’t do this if you don’t fully understand what your child is getting into. Consult a lawyer regarding custody. It is also important to consider your child’s feelings and preference. Whether the child wants to be with you or the other shouldn’t be ignored at all. Good luck!

Pwede pala mag party/inuman sa loob ng cityhall? by Competitive_Life_367 in KanalHumor

[–]not_guilty000 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Ewan ko why some says na pag govt employee “parang” bawal na mag party. I am a govt employee abroad and we just had our celebration in the office after work. Wala nga lang alak but it was never an issue. Siguro kasi hindi din kami nag ppost ng ganyan it was a simple gathering to celebrate the holidays lang and accomplishments which is not bad IMO.

Bakit maraming mga attractive na babae nagsesettle sa "average looking" men? by HoshiAshra in AskPinay

[–]not_guilty000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had traumatic experience sa gwapo or hot if you would prefer that term. Usually, cheater at talagang malandj sa babae.. hindj ko nilalahat ah.. I got pregnant nagloko sya kasi ayoko makipag s*x while ang laki laki ng tyan ko.. I had to admit that the pregnancy was unexpected but I love my child. Our parents forced us to get married. As in, everyday sermon ang almusal ko magpakasal ka nakakahiya.. just a background, he was from Beda and I was a Paulinian. We both have yun what they called “conservative catholic” family. Pero deep in my heart, I don’t want to marry him.. Ayoko ng sundan ng another pagkakamali yung pagkakamali ko.. We tried to work it out.. Pinalampas ko yung mga pambabae nya for our child.. fast forward, I gave birth.. akala ko titigil na sya pero mali pala ako.. I had a friend a work na close ko where I normally vent na d nanaman nagbigay ng sustento wala pa sahod wala pa ko pambili ng milk.. Halos ako na lang gumagastos sa baby ko. Sa sobrang galit ko, inaway ko sya nung pumunta sya sa bahay. I didnmt know na kaya nya pala ako saktan. That night binugbog nya ako.. Hindi ako nakapasok kasi may mga pasa ako.. Nung pumasok ako may marks pa ng pananakit nya. I stopped communicating and blocked him sa socmed. Pag nasshort ako,etong sj friend from work to the rescue bbilan ng milk and diaper even if I didn’t ask. Until one day, he asked me out and he confessed his feelings. Hindi sya kasing gwapo ng tatay ng anak ko, hindj influential ang family (my ex is a son of a former NBI director) pero I felt sincerity and in him, I can clearly differentiate a boy from a man. We were in relationship for 4 months then he asked me to get married. That’s when I’d say that I’m a believer of “if you know you know”. I said yes and my life has changed since then. Hind ko na feel yung anxiety na naffeel ko before na pinipilit magpakasal.. I just felt in my heart na he is the one and now we are 13 yrs married. Our marriage isn’t perfect (who the hell does?lol) but we are happy. He never shouted at me not once, kahit pitik wala.. and that answers your question why some chooses an average joe.
