Undecided

March 5, 2008 · Print This Article

Last week, my mother told me that our helper will no longer work with us because of some reason. I really felt sad when I knew about it, because I know that she really needs a job for her family but obviously she can’t do it now. She needs to take care of her mother who’s always sick. We always treat her like she’s a part of our family. When I heard about it from my mother, the first thing that came into my mind was, “Where can I find another “ate” like her whom we can trust?” She only stayed with us for less than a year but I will always be thankful to her for taking care of our daughter while I’m at work. 

Now, I’m thinking if I’m going to stop working again to take care of our daughter since my mother can’t do it alone. And my husband and I have this plan of going back in Hopia Wonderland. I don’t know what to do now. =(

    I do understand how you feel. It is never easy to find help now a days. But I am sure you will be able to figure things out. Sabi nga when it is right, all the stars in heaven will line up for you because that’s the way you should go. Good Luck!

    Magandang sunday po Mrs. KK

    I always had good experiences with our own helpers when we were kids (not sexual experience hehe). but as we grew up unti unti na rin sila umalis at iniwan kami. I think that is part of the transition process. Before my sister left for the US, her helper which is already like a family to us, cried so much that when she woke up the next day, her eyes were swollen like kero-keropi because she’s so close with us. Ayaw naman nya sa bahay namin kasi nauwi sya sa province and malayo sa kabihasnan ang amin. oh well, that’s life. and I think the secret of having a good relationship with your helpers is not to treat them as one… kaya minsan nakaklungot din kasi para kang nawalan ng pamilya.
