ur right on that–sex education is everywhere…and there’s no need for any sermon on that…however i remembered my uncle reminding me 2 never screw up w/ a gurl…and he always reminded me this line from some 1960s OPM tune…”o tukso, layuan mo ako”, o crap that line’s going through my head again..better level-up the volume on my mp3 player b4 i freak out…

by the way, i like kids, (they brighten up ur day) as long as they dont get to the point that i get too irritated…^^

hellooo liz… things change..people change.. it will for you..maybe not.. different strokes for different folks.. I love kids, I hate men.. hehehe… I’d rather have the kids and disregard the men that gave me their chromosome to produce kids..hehehee….

Maybe mom was just a little paranoid. I used to hate my mom when she starts saying those things.. but I later on understood when I became a mom myself… =)

hi lz! i love kids to!! i adopted one nga eh!! it give you happiness at it give strength!

My mom actually do dat to me! N dey do dat for my own….

malay natin if U got birth, so you make Ur own way to tell your kids!

Hello po. Yeah! Annoying how my mom also gives sermon to me regarding pregnancy. I don’t like kids either (except for my pamangkin). Hehe! Minsan nga nakakasawa na sermon nila. I couldn’t speak out for myself kaya sa isip ko na lang “Ganun na ba tingin niyo sa akin?”. Pero somehow, thankful pa rin ako at nandiyan sila to remind me of things. Hehe!

I’ll start to like kids na lang if I’m ready to enter such commitment. ^__^

forgive ur mom. parents, as well as old people tend to overreact most of the time. the sermon is just a product of her paranoia. =) chillax. anyways, mind if we xchange links?

There’s always the good and the bad about kids. Yes, they brighten anybody’s day with their pacute smile and so innocent look but sometimes kids get negative feedbacks because of their background and how they are brought up.

I loved kids that even my pamangkins would rather be with me than with their parents. I spoiled them to death and lecture of course. But there are those times were in you just want to be away from them and have your me time.

Which sometimes happens to me with my own kids. There are times that they are just way too much……

You never you might just change and be liking kids one of this days…..

Here in the U.S.,lots of unmarried,teenaged girls have babies.Some have multiple pregnancies, so even if they didn’t know what caused it the first time they should have figured it out.
Since you don’t like kids,it seems like telling you not to get pregnant sounds like good advice.

Katulad din ng malawakang kaisipan na namumuhay na nga tayo sa Generation X, Generation Y, Generation Z, Generation sin 45x / log 5 - 2x + 3y.

Wala e. Kung iisiping mabuti, naging bahagi na talaga ng kultura ng ating mga kapwa kabataang Pinoy ang mga usaping sex. Naging bahagi na ng pamumuhay, parang pagkain at pagligo. Dahil daw kasi cool, in, o ewan. Hindi natin ito maitatanggi.

Aminado akong “liberated” at mulat na sa mga ganyang klaseng bagay. Pero siyempre, hindi mo naman itinanong sa’kin ‘yun.

Nasa pagdadala na lang ng tao ‘yan.

My mom telling me not to do things rarely stopped me from doing them. Common sense worked better. Seems like you have plenty of it when it comes to this subject.

Haven’t I read this somewhere?

Liberated na rin kasi ang mga pinoy. When i was younger and single, PMS is definitely a scary thing… even discussing the sex thing is quite a taboo for kids my age during that time. Now, married and more mature, i see that things have really changed.

Your mom is protecting you. Mom knows best diba? If she do give you that “sermon” just pretend that you are listening and absorbing everything that she says… pasok sa kanang ear, labas sa kaliwa… i do that often when i was young…

You are still young and I guess eventually you will understand why your Mom is guving you those sermons! In fact you should appreciate her giving you a piece of her mind. It shows her concern for you. It might be irritating but still it shows her love and concern for you.
Hating kids now doesnt necessarily mean you will not get pregnant! Having sex is another thing altogether too–but maybe I dont want to lecture you. When you get a little bit older and hopefully have a family you will understand everything.

Wow Betty, to be honest that short spiel made my ears ring big time. hahaha

i hate kids, too. i’m not very good with them. i don’t know how to talk to them, actually. like, should i just be normal or be all cutesy and baby-talk them?

My mom doesn’t really lectures us (we’re 5 girls in the family) about premarital sex, but she does talks to us regarding sex and what have you plus she would always answer our question even when we were younger. And we have agreed that common sense plus a dose of self respect should always be with us no matter what happens.

Sometimes, lecturing is one way of our Mom’s to let us know that she’s worried and that she cares for us. It’s up to us to show them that we know how to take care of ourselves.

1. children are made to test the patience of adults. i see that all the time.

2. i read way years back, there this woman who don’t like children. she believes children were cruel (without them knowing of it of course!). in order to prove it, she undergone operation which literally made her incapable to perpetuate. remarkable how far one could go.

3. it’s not about liberation and sex education, but a matter of perception and Maslow’s self-actualization.

cheers!

(though impossible akong magka-asawa, children represent timelessness..)

Tell your mom that you’re still a vigin for her to shut up.

Although you think she’s being over protective, I bet you’d miss her usual sermons especially when you already live on your own.

I used to work closely with kids in our church. I love them. They’re so honest, and their faith is simple. They believe in absolutes, and for them, there is no grey area. I wish I could have that again. As a grown up, there are a few absolutes left. In my humble opinion, there seems to be more grey areas by the day!

I have to be honest. For me, a law career, however badly I want it, plays only second for me. What good is a career if you have nothing or nobody to work for? Who would inspire you? A cause is different. I don’t want to go home to an elegant, albeit empty house or apartment, and go through that routine everyday. It’s cold, it’s barren.

Maybe it’s just being the mid-twentysomething speaking.

I don’t even know if there’s anyone out there who’d want to wait for me at the end of the aisle in a church. But if there isn’t, I’ll adopt a kid.

I agree with Dave. Kids represent timelessness.

thanks for the comments people. especially those who disagreed with me. i love it when people disagree with me!

i disagree with you liz.. i don’t know why but i do

so it means i luff you!
