Having 8 kids is a kind of blessing

Hi mam,

Inspired kaau ko imo story mam. Maestorya man jud ni nato. Naa ko 2 kids, 12 yrs old & 2 yrs old. The elsdest is a boy, girl ang sunod. My eldest has ADHD & dyslexics. At 12 yrs old he still don't know how to read, far away behind academically, because of the fact that ADHD has very short focus span. They are inattentive. It's very frustrating knowing nga stressful kaau dad-on ang mga special child. Mahurot imo pasensya, kinahanglan extraordinary unconditional imo love as parent. I'm a working mother, an accounting clerk in one of the leading IT company here and because of my situation I'm considering resigning - probably by December.

Talking of helpers, labad kaau sa ulo. Mag holiday ko, mag holiday pud cla. Gamay ra ako sweldo kay accounting clerk ra baya, ako sweldo sa helper is P2,500 because of my special child. I'm weighing things now and upon reading this post I'm close to finalize to better resign nlang. I admit daku kaau ko ug lapses sa ako anak kay gi palabi nko ako work, overtime cge, gabii na muuli. Had I attended to my son's academic needs, daku cguro ug progress. Kay one factor baya kono naka affect sa ako anak is kulang sya ug attention namo.

Since I have a 2 yr old daughter and have seen a potential in her of her being smart, I might as well take the opportunity to nurture their future. Security guard ra ako bana, pero bahala na basta maau ug foundation ang bata gamay pa lang. I'm aware nga daku kaau ni sacrifice ako buhaton pero future sa mga bata ako gi huna2x. Kon trabaho mi duha, helper ra ang mabilin sa balay, unsa may itudlo ana sa ako mga anak? Binastos ra. Gusto mo mubawi sa ako mga lapses sa ako eldest son, ako target nga by 4 sa ako anak, kamao na sya mubasa.

I know financially mag lisud ko pero na inspire jud ko imo story mam. Thank you kaau

Speaking of ADHD my eldest daughter had just resigned from her tutorial job in Ma. Luisa her student is a son of a famous family in cebu, and you know what the kid just discover by his mom last June that he had an ADHD, but the boy was very smart in fact he is top 2 in his class. He is studying in one of the Paref school here in cebu Sprindale. Dili tingale tanan naa ana hinay sa academic, although iya mom naa ra jud sa ila focus sa study.
Be ready jud sa financial crises, pero nakasurvive gani ko nga eight ako kidz. Daghan kaau kog trials naagian sa ako life. Before, na mis understood jud ko sa ko mga in laws the way I brought up my children, but now hinay-hinay na nila nakita ang akong effort. pero thank God .....wala jud twn ko niya pasagdi. Dont forget to have a devotion for your family. Thanks for your reply...Good Luck and God Bless! I know your making the right decision.......
