My attackers

[laurel]

Penny Po from what I read of the good works you have done to help others over the years and continue to I have the upmost respect for you. No one should have a go at someone else untill they have walked in their shoes and understand thing from their point of view.

I totally agree, life is hard enough , people should remember that when you point the finger ....take a look.....theres three fingers pointing back at you.

Its so easy to judge others without having a clue about the circumstances that surround it...........most of us here are aware of the heartache that goes with this territory of LDRs and other events that take place in life ...........last thing we need is self righteous ppl judging.
Lets encourage each other guys where we can.............

[Doc Alan]

Penny, I did not see the comments made, and do not know who is involved, but from what I just read, you made a brave decision.

Happy Easter

Penny, I'm quoting Steve because I also don't know the background to this. But I've said before, you're an inspiration, and your posts are always worth reading. Ingat palagi

[KeithD]

Anyway, you may have wrinkles or not and so what???

I don't know where Penny has wrinkles but I'll take a damn good look for her if she asks! .....my wife's reading this thread!

[IainBusby]

I've been attacked by two members here for not having kids but tried to understand that kind of envy people.
If your reason to live is having children and attack those without like me,
Then IMHO stop believing in God and stop going to church. It's a waste of time.
As I told before, it is risky for me to have even one so I cannot produce babies like you do both.
I had two choices, to have or to die. So I prefer to live and enjoy life.
Kayo(my attackers) na lang manganak ng manganak because i cannot produce anymore.

Thanks for my four friends who sent PM to me and lifted me up. Not to worry, as penny still happy here.

A real Happy Easter to all members!

Whether you had decided not to have any children for health reasons or just because it's not part of your life plan, it's nobody's damn business but yours.

[adam&chryss]

I salute you ate Penny!

If you have chosen to have a baby then you wouldn't be here.. it's hard to give birth then not knowing what will happen to your baby, who will take care of him/her and what life she/he will have without his/her mother. She/he might be surrounded by bad people like... you know who of course you wouldn't want that.

Even you don't have kids of your own, helping your pamangkins makes you a true mother and better than those who have kids but act like they are singles or no kids at all.

Just stay happy! xxx

[gracia143]

My friend, just breath, relax, keep on smiling and stay beautiful. You've got better things to do with your life. And well, make them more jealous hehe.

[Arthur Little]

I have to say, Penny ... it's completely beyond my comprehension how anyone can be so unkind as to stoop to making *cruel jibes of this nature. Is it petty jealousy? I don't know. But rest assured you're held in high esteem by your many friends on the forum ... including myself ... so please try [hard as it is] to ignore *such remarks and treat them with the contempt they deserve.

ate penny we are lucky you know that we don't have kid but we are happy to our wonderful husband.

[pennybarry]

Stay happy Ate Penny!!!
*I agree people are entitled to their own choices what matter is that u don't affect anyone*
go for it!!!
mabuhay!!
makibaka!!
Happy Easter!!!

Makibaka sa napakagulong mundo ng showbiz! ehehehe Salamat!

Ate Penny, I think what they've said to you is too personal!! Anyway, you may have wrinkles or not and so what??? the important is you have a good heart, thats why you're lucky to have a good husband and family back home.

Ignore those bad people.. Just stay happy and keep smiling.

I don't know why they always murder my age. I have no idea if they can stop their age. But wrinkles can tell who's life is struggling!

After all is your private life and you don't owe any explanation to any one.

Having children is big commitment.

Yes you're right! Why I did explain before, I can't remember anymore!

The issue is too important and too personal, they are not worthy any answer.

Happy Easter to all members.

You are also right but I am 100% sure if they read and i know they did read, they can feel if they are right or wrong. Sometimes, you need to hit the head to make persons awake!

Ignore them Ate Penny
Stay happy
Life is beautiful

Life is beautiful if you enjoy it! From now on I will ignore them lol! Well said na ako sa kanila

That's also what I have learned from my chinese friends. Thanks huh!

Salamat kaibigan.

I don't know where Penny has wrinkles but I'll take a damn good look for her if she asks! .....my wife's reading this thread!

Boss my elbow is kutis balls. Feel what your elbows skin is and remember my cheek.
Boss, I moaned once to Ate Ping about being childless and I got strenght and good advices. Enjoy life she said!

Whether you had decided not to have any children for health reasons or just because it's not part of your life plan, it's nobody's damn business but yours.

You're right Ian.

I salute you ate Penny!

Thanks Adam and Chryss! If I gave birth and died, my Mom- in law will not look after my baby as she always said, she is willing to marry my dad in- law again, but please no babies. My Nanay is 82 and no more energy to raise even piggy ehehhe. Sis and brod in Middle East. I am sure Barry will find someone new wife/nanny to look after. God has reasons and He understands! ehehehe
Yes I know how hard the responsibility of raising kids as I helped my brod and sisters to discipline their kids. If not, maybe they didn't finish their course at uni and grown up good enough. Kulang na lang sa akin sila lumabas.
My advice to them: Raise your kids good and well disciplined to make them not a burden of society someday. Send them to uni and wish to become somebody. Because if they failed, and they become burden of society, then my last laugh is still mine. Galingan ang pagiging dakilang ina. ehehhehe

My friend, just breath, relax, keep on smiling and stay beautiful. You've got better things to do with your life. And well, make them more jealous hehe.

Had a nice long stay in bed. Tomorrow will be gone boat fishing. Enjoy!Thanks my friend. They said they are still young but why they are so jealous with me? Hmmm because I'm still beautiful even old age.

I have to say, Penny ... it's completely beyond my comprehension how anyone can be so unkind as to stoop to making *cruel jibes of this nature. Is it petty jealousy? I don't know.

Thanks Arth. Having more friends helps. Just got PM from another member here and she said: if somebody talking to Us...We are very imporant to them!. Wow! I am so important and I didn't realize.

[gracia143]

Showbiz na showbiz nga ang dating mo my friend. Wow! You should be proud haha! x x

[pennybarry]

ate penny we are lucky you that we don't have kid but we are happy to our wonderful husband.

Yes friend you are right! Our hubby seems good enough as they understand wives like us lol!

[September]

We love you Penny, your straight forward person

[Arthur Little]

, Penny. Having good friends is worth its weight in gold. And believe me, you really DO have many friends here ... because of who YOU are ... because you're the type of person who is always ready to recognise other peoples' values ... always willing to go the extra mile to help those in distress - and to forgive others for their faults and failings. How many folk can honestly claim to have qualities like these?

At the other end of the scale, there are the *'nitpickers' whose lives are apparently so "empty" that they invariably seem to have nothing better to do than search endlessly for (and latch onto) almost ANY possible perceived weaknesses and flaws in their fellow human beings. We've had a few of *THEM on the forum in the time I'VE been a member - although, fortunately, they were soon sussed-out, and didn't last long. So forget them, Penny; leave them to "stew in their own juice"!!!

Have a good weekend, my friend.

Thanks Arth! That's why I value older friends as I get more strenght, more inspirational advices.
I cherish friends like you!
We'll go boat fishing tomorrow! Will surely enjoy!

There is no rule saying you must have children! I'm not sure I want kids to be honest..I'm too old!

[David House]

I am shocked that anyone would think that they had the right to criticise another for taking such a personal decision. Quite frankly it is no-one's business other than your own. I have not read the comments so take what you have said at face value. Which thread were they posted on?

I guess though that they were made by Filipinas, rather than by a guy! There does appear to be a very strange attitude amongst many of the traditional, conservative type of old fashioned Filipino communities that is the duty of women to produce kids, no matter what the family circumstances are, encouraged by the RC Church in the main. Fortunately the attitude of the younger generation is slowly changing, though their access to a decent sex education is still woeful.

I believe that the last thing the whole world needs, and the Philippines in particular, is more kids, so anyone who decides, for whatever reason not to have them gets my support.

[Ping]

Hey Penn send me some fish if you caught many.
Nah don't worry about this kind of person.Look at me dear I'm over fifty but my neighbors said I look like thirty something.
My advice is eat loads of veges, fish, fruit and rice everyday no junk food,no alcohol,coffee and don't smoke and most of all drink one liter of water a day.

[GaryFifer]

I would say this is ignorance. My mother has had the comments after 8 years trying to have bb. "Oh, you only have the one" or "You like the money too much, you are selfish" and then another 10 years after me.

They do not know your pain. The comments hurt, but do not despair. Only you know your feelings on this.

[KeithD]

I like this advice about healthy things

That's why she feeds me rat posion, bleach and mercury

[LadyJ]

Look at me dear I'm over fifty but my neighbors said I look like thirty something.

Ate Ping, what about Keith? Does he look like 20 yrs younger aswell? (hope not!)

My advice is eat loads of veges, fish, fruit and rice everyday no junk food,no alcohol,coffee and don't smoke and most of all drink one liter of water a day.

Did you hear that Keith? that message is actually for you!! and also I think ate Ping forgot to mention about less gambling, less looking at the porn's pictures and so on and so on..

[Doc Alan]

Did you hear that Keith? that message is actually for you!! and also I think ate Ping forgot to mention about less gambling, less looking at the porn's pictures and so on and so on..

Yes ! Listen to Ping , LadyJ and DrJ ...you can't ban us all !

[aromulus]

Yes !...you can't ban us all !

No...?

Try me............

Hey guys...give me some support here.... being picked on a sexy babe.... (I'm not really complaining though!!)

[lenboy]

Dont worry Penny !
As long as your happy thats all what matters !!

[aposhark]

I've been attacked by two members here for not having kids................

You have always come across as a fun-loving lady Penny.

Keep on being so

[triple5]

I wonder if your attackers would have received so many messages of support had the boot been on the other foot Doubtful.

A Penny for your thoughts








*I had a real good laff the other night,.. twas a nice chat Ate Pen *thank you

[pennybarry]

Thanks Nigel! It is the rule of horrible two's!

Will send you the links and PM's lol! Thank you!
That's problem in our country. POPULATION! And even their families starving, they don't realise the future in few years to come.

Hey Penn send me some fish if you caught many.

Salamat Ate Ping! We were 10 in the boats but no one caught even a cod or mackerel. Maybe it's not the right time to go boat fishing Ate Ping. Imagine, I caught Dead man’s fingers ! Better luck on summer Ate Ping. By the way I enjoyed our outing. I'll share to you our photos.
It's also my secret Ate and you reveal it! I'm 0% alcohol, I love milk and water and not a coffee lover. Vegies! we grown up with veggies from our farm as that was the rule of our parents. If we want to send to Uni, eat veggies to save so we can afford to pay tuition fees.

I would say this is ignorance. My mother has had the comments after 8 years trying to have bb. "Oh, you only have the one" or "You like the money too much, you are selfish" and then another 10 years after me.

They do not know your pain. The comments hurt, but do not despair. Only you know your feelings on this.

Thanks Gary! Actually, I'm immune
with their ignorance and comments. But the more I keep silent, the more they insult me. I am thinking how do they feel now. If they grown up with many hang-ups, then non sense to them.

Dont worry Penny !
As long as your happy thats all what matters !!

Yup Lenn! Thanks huh! Me and hubby are always happy and enjoy life if we got the time.
Every weekend, we go out for a nice date!

You have always come across as a fun-loving lady Penny.

Keep on being so

Thanks Apo! I love fun really but nature is more fun! Sometimes, I miss scuba diving and see the beauty of underwater where you can see the real natures and you feel you are out of the world. Very expensive here to dive and very cold. Cannot afford! Do you miss your diving?

I wonder if your attackers would have received so many messages of support had the boot been on the other foot Doubtful.

I called them "the shut BMW" Big Mouth Women

A Penny for your thoughts








*I had a real good laff the other night,.. twas a nice chat Ate Pen *thank you

That chatbox made us more close to each other you know? I have discovered how crazy we were that time we had a fantastic chat! I laughed aloud! Vb is such a nice person too! As well as September who has loads of funny source! One day, we'll chat again if the boss is at the bedroom. sssshhhh!
