Filipinos are proud or, to say the least, known for having close ties with families and relatives even if it requires one to dig six feet under. It is only in the PH where you can see a one-floor apartment with 7 families living in it. As stated by the Philippine law, when one steps at the age of 21, he or she will be legally independent from his/her parents. That doesn’t pretty much apply to today’s Filipino society for even a 29-year old married man with four kids prefers to live with his parents under one roof.

And having the names of your late grandmother and mother inked on your back is one notable way of showing your appreciation to the sacrifices they made when they were still around. Anyway, to his Home Girls, RIP.
