Kay Misis ang hanapbuhay; Si Mister sa bahay.
In the first part of this feature, we looked into the personal circumstances and motivations that led a Filipino couple to decide to leave everything behind, move their family abroad, following greener pastures. In that story, the well-established and newly promoted lawyer-husband, in abandoning his booming career to take on the traditionally woman-ascribed role of home care and child-rearing, quelled his ego and swallowed his male pride, all in the name of family love.
According to the poverty statistics by the Philippine Statistics Authority , in the first semester of 2021 the poverty threshold is at P12,082 per month; and that the proportion of families with income less than that poverty threshold or the poverty incidence was estimated at 18 percent, which translates to 4.74 million poor Filipino families who cannot make ends meet.
“I think the people here are paid enough and because everyone is well compensated, even if it is a single-income family, it’s fine,” confirmsAtty. “I think the Swiss system is designed that way. The public schools are designed with 1 parent at home in mind. For example, Wednesday is always half-day because they expect that someone, either the mother or the father, is always waiting at home for the kids. Also, in certain cantons, you get a family allowance for every child that you have.
Because it is not written into the policy that child-rearing is a gender specific role, it encourages both parents to spend time with their newborn. Spouses can split the months between them or apply at the same time or alternately, taking turns in the shared responsibility that is parenthood.
