Many children, whether in the metro or in some other place in the Philippines, are deprived of the fun and careless childhood they all deserve. Instead of going to school or playing games with friends, some children are left with no choice but to roam around asking for spare change or even bread.
Even worse, some children are not only deprived of their basic needs and wants as a young boy/girl, some are forced to work to be able to support themselves and the people around them.
That is the very story of this young boy from Tarlac. After countless encounters of netizen Anjennette Asuncion Salonga was able to talk to the boy.
The boy had been working in the streets of San Miguel, Tarlac selling his products in order to support his grandmother. Everyday Salonga passed the boy numerous times.
It was on a particular night that the Facebook user was able to muster up her courage to approach the boy. Around midnight, Salonga saw the boy outside a fast food chain. Curious as to why he was still outside late at night, she asked. The answer of the young boy was both admirable and heartbreaking. According to him, his frail grandmother can no longer support their needs so he has to.
The boy was showered with praises from the proud netizens. Salonga urged those who would encounter the boy to buy his products as a show of support.
His inspiring story has created a buzz on the social media. Although many were amazed, some insisted that the boy deserved better help and he should be sent to school instead of working for a better future.
