- He added that he would just hire a caregiver if given the case.
Vice Ganda still has no plan to have a child or adopt a child. The comedian shared that he doesn’t need a child to take care of him when he gets old.
“Hindi ko po kasi binibili ‘yung rason na ‘paano ‘yan kapag tumanda ka sino ang mag-aalaga sa ‘yo?’ I just found it so selfish na iyon ang dahilan kung bakit ka mag-aanak, dahil gusto mo lang na may mag-alaga sa iyo.”
Then, he continued saying that he would have a child because he would want to be a parent. Not because he would want someone to take care of him when he gets old.
“Kasi para sa akin kaya gusto mong magkaanak ay kasi gusto mong maging magulang, hindi dahil para may mag-alaga sa iyo. Kaya sabi ko, hindi ko naman kailangang mag-anak para may mag-alaga sa akin kasi ayaw ko namang obligahin ang tao para lang alagaan ako.”
Moreover, he added that he would just save money to pay for a caregiver. Plus, his siblings’ children also promised to take care of him when he gets old.
“Eh, di mag-iipon na lang ako para may pambayad ako ng caregiver. May mga pamangkin ako sa kapatid ko na aalagaan din ako sakaling tumanda ako.”
He persisted indicating that he wouldn’t want to subject a child to hate. On having a gay parent since the Philippines still isn’t ready for that.
“Pangalawa, ayokong i-subject ‘yung bata doon sa kahirapan ng sitwasyon niya habang lumalaki siya na ang magulang niya ay isang bakla dahil pakiwari ko po ay hindi pa handa ang lipunan sa Pilipinas para doon.”
He also shared that he knows people around him wouldn’t understand that kind of situation.
“And since hindi pa handa, ‘yung mga taong nakapaligid sa amin para unawain ‘yung ganoong sitwasyon ay ayokong iparanas sa bata, ‘yung hirap na lumalaki siya at iniisip niya kung ano ang isasagot niya sa magtatanong kung bakit ang tatay mo ay bakla.”
