00:00I'm a single parent, so I know a lot of people can relate to my experience.
00:10Have you already posted your story on Facebook?
00:12No, I haven't.
00:14If you want a lot of people to relate to your story, I hope you already posted it on Facebook.
00:18No, I haven't.
00:20Maybe she can explain it.
00:22Yes, she can share her experiences.
00:24I just want to share my experience.
00:26You know, we all have a story in our lives that is worth sharing.
00:30Yes.
00:32And there are people who can relate to your story.
00:34They can say,
00:35Oh, that's my story too.
00:37Yes, we're the same.
00:38Yes, I'm not the only one.
00:40Yes, that's right.
00:42You're a single parent. How long have you been a single parent?
00:46No, I mean, how long have you been a single parent?
00:48I've been a single parent for four years.
00:52Four years.
00:53That's a long time.
00:54Your Honor, our resource person is not sure.
00:58Four years or four years?
01:00She did not remember the date.
01:04But, that's it.
01:05Does she accept her answer?
01:07Madam Chair, no.
01:09She cannot like my answer.
01:13You can't believe it if you're not sure.
01:19Sorry for your Honor.
01:21Your Honor, please explain.
01:23Is it four years or not four years?
01:25Four years.
01:27You've been a single parent for four years.
01:29How many children do you have?
01:30I have two.
01:31Two.
01:32They're both girls.
01:33Okay.
01:34Is their dad the only one?
01:35No.
01:36No.
01:37Their dad is different?
01:39Yes.
01:40What about their mom?
01:41Of course, it's the mom.
01:42Of course, it's the mom.
01:43Of course, it's the mom.
01:44Because it's also possible for her ex-husband to have a daughter, right?
01:48It's also possible.
01:49Right?
01:50You don't accept it.
01:51She may not like my answer, but at least I'm answering.
01:54Your Honor, please contemplate.
02:01Your Honor, please contemplate.
02:03She's hungry.
02:04She wants to eat.
02:06Okay.
02:07So, you have two children.
02:12You have two relationships.
02:13Both of them failed.
02:16Yes.
02:17How is that?
02:18How does it feel to face a 31-year-old lady who has two relationships that didn't succeed
02:25and she still has two children?
02:28At first, it was very difficult because my children are mostly girls.
02:34So, the times that I was left, we were separated at first.
02:42Then, the second time, I felt like I wanted to give up.
02:46Because I always failed.
02:48Then, I saw my friends.
02:51They are happily married.
02:54They are happy.
02:55Then, I feel like I'm getting old.
02:58I feel like I'm being left behind.
02:59Then, I can't give my complete family to my children.
03:03So, what hurts me the most is that we are a broken family.
03:08My mother and I were separated when I was just 4 years old.
03:13One thing that happened in your life that you didn't want to happen again.
03:18It happened twice.
03:21That's why it really hurts.
03:23True.
