roy2cebu Posted September 27, 2011 Posted September 27, 2011 (edited) Never give up in what you believe.....previously I have posted about my partners brother..an OFW, who wouldn't support his mother ..(a truly praiseworthy pinoy), because it was my 'responsibilty being a foreigner'. Well, a summons to the local barangay extinguished that BS and he has been ordered to pay a monthly amount...my 'responsibilty' extinguished and deemed 'untrue'.Stick to your principles....don't let the irresponsible and unscrupulous take advantage of you with their 'assummation' of your wealth.

In a Barangay situation, common sense and simple rules of family ethics overrules most of the time! One don't get, if one doesn't complain or ask! Some are intimidated and too afraid to ask in fear for their lives or to get involved in family matters! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
