Lady Netizen Calls Out Family Prioritizing Alcohol Drinks Over Child’s Milk
Lady netizen shares a story of a family who prioritized buying alcohol and snacks over their child’s milk.
Abby Añonue, a Facebook user, shared a heartbreaking encounter with a family at a grocery store, which left the public feeling sad and concerned. The post elicited comments from the online community.
In the post, Abby noticed the family ahead of her at the checkout counter. The first items they placed for payment were two bottles of gin and a large bag of chips. Afterward, they added canned sardines and instant noodles.
As the family closely monitored the total amount, it became clear they were running out of money. Instead of adjusting their other purchases, they decided to leave behind the milk for their small child.
Some netizens expressed disappointment and frustration over the family’s choices, while others sympathized with the struggles that parents may face when managing their finances.
Regardless of the reasons, Abby’s post points to an important issue about priorities and responsibilities, especially when it comes to raising children.

Her post reminds parents that they must make thoughtful decisions when providing for their families. While it is understandable that everyone has their own personal needs and preferences, it is crucial that children’s basic needs, such as food and milk, come first.
Abby urged people to be more responsible when choosing to become parents, as the well-being of children depends heavily on how they are cared for.

“Bisyo muna bago Anak?
Nakakalungkot kasi kanina bago kami mag bayad sa grocery store may isang pamilya na nauna sa amin, at ang una nilang nilagay sa counter para mag bayad ay 2 Gin at isang chichirya na malaki tapos sinunod nila yung sardinas at mga noodless tapos binabantayan nila yung presyo ng kanilang binili, nung nakita nila na kulang na siguro pambayad nila, iniwan nila yung Gatas para sa anak nilang maliit.
-a sad true story
Sana maging responsableng magulang tayo kung gusto natin mag anak dahil kawawa talaga sila”
