The post indicated that Jefrey is just on the 7th grade at the Quipot National High School. And in order to earn money he does labor.
He has six siblings and his family’s only source of income is planting banana. This state could normally be seen in the rural areas of the country to which others have said that life at such is hard.
These banana is what Jefrey lifts from their house to sell to other places. He endures the pain caused by the heavy bananas on his shoulder.
The photo shows the boy carrying bunches of banana tied at the either end of the bamboo stick that he placed on his shoulders.
Then, accordingly, the money from his selling is tend for his daily allowance in going to school.
