"Can a Woman Forget Her Nursing Child...?"





With all the struggles and difficulties, failings, weaknesses, disappointments and sadnesses along with the joys, excitement, pleasure, pride and happiness of parenting, parents, particularly mothers always say:

"Gagawin ko ang lahat para sa anak ko"

How many times you have heard these words?

And the union between a mother and her child is incredible. She will always defend her child from any harm, she will not allow mosquitoes comes near him; she will voluntary starve herself just to feed her child and will shield herself to protect her child from her abusive husband and accepts the physical and emotional sufferings of an OFW just to build her child's future.

But how far will a mother protect her child?

The web of lies and deceptions created by Marlene Aguilar to protect her fugitive son Jason Aguilar Ivler from the arm of justice finally fails.

I watched the footage shown on TV Patrol World, the exchange of gunfires between the NBI Agents and Jason Aguilar Ivler shocks me and was I noticed Marlene's calm composure; I guessed that she has finally accepted the fate that it's all over.

A new chapter of her life begins to unfold as she remained motionless while being handcuffed and the Miranda right is being pronounced by her arresting Agent.

Justice has been served.




"Ikaw, hanggang kailan mo ipagtatanggol ang iyong anak?"

"Pag-ibig anaki'y aking nakilala,
'di dapat palakihin ang bata sa saya;
at sa katuwaa'y kapag namihasa,
kung lumaki'y walang hihinting ginhawa."

"Sapagkat ang mundo'y bayan ng hinagpis,
namamaya'y sukat tibayan ang dibdib;
lumaki sa tuwa'y walang pagtitiis ...
anong ilalaban sa dahas ng sakit?"

"Ang taong magawi sa ligaya't aliw,
mahina ang puso't lubhang maramdamin;
inaakala pa lamang ang hilahil
na daratni'y 'di na matutuhang bathin."


"Ang laki sa layaw karaniwa'y hubad
sa bait at muni't sa hatol ay salat;
masaklap na bunga ng maling paglingap,
habag ng magulang sa irog na anak."

"Sa taguring bunso't likong pagmamahal,
ang isinasama ng bata'y nunukal;
ang iba'y marahil sa kapabayaan
ng dapat magturong tamad na magulang."

  1. Nung una di ko alam kung tama ang ginawa nya, pinagtanggol nya lang ang kanyang anak dahil sa pagmamahal...

    Tapos may napanuod akong teleserye hehehe lolzz, wag mong gagamitin ang pagmamahal na dahilan upang makasakit ng iba, oo nga naman diba? ilugar natin ang pagmamahal na nararamdaman natin...

  2. As a mother...I know how it feels kapag napapahamak ang anak mo, pag nasasaktan, karugtong ng bituka, ng puso, ng buong pagkatao mo ang anak mo. At totoong lahat ay kayang isakripisyo ng ina para sa anak kahit ang pansarili nyang kapakanan. Ngunit hindi sa lahat ng pagkakataon, ang kunsintihin ang anak ay isang maling pagsupporta.

  3. siguro nga talagang masakit para sa isang ina na makita ang kanyang anak na malugmok sa anumang pasakit o paghihirap. Pero sana isaalang alang din nya ang damdamin ng isa pang ina na mas higit na nagdurusa sa pagkawala ng anak at paghahanap ng hustisya. Sa kasamaang palad, gustuhin man nyang akuin ang kasalanan ng anak, sa batas si jason ang nakapatay kaya sya ang dapat na tumanggap ng anumang kaparusahang ipapataw.

  4. The love of a mother manifested here is beyond question. Nonetheless, I am perplexed as to the kind of ubringing Jason was molded into. The latest discovery of his own music cd that contains expression of wrath and hatred could be testament to the failings of loved ones behind the person. Whether or not I'm being presumptive, there could be reasons behind it and in this case, only the mother should have known.
