From DIGITIZE (by Precious) – Although I’ve not experienced what it is like to be a breadwinner yet, I still carry the expectations of a breadwinner: the responsibility to take care of my family. And it’s not just implied–it’s spoken. As I grow older, I frequently hear things such as “Oh Precious kung meron kang pera, magbigay ka dito ah,” (Precious when you start earning, don’t forget to give us some money). Even things like “Precious, ikaw ang mag bahala sakin kung matanda na ako,” which translates to “Precious when I get old you better take care of me.”
