Paolo Antoniou D. Trinidad 4FM2 After having read the article entitled Bahay-bahayan by Raphael E.

Lopez, discuss the answers to the following questions: 1. Did the author make the right decision? In which part of the article did you base your answer? Yes, the author made the right decision. When the author stated he learned two lessons. First, is that it is foolish for adults to act like children. Second, that one simply does not get in to that kind of situation without Financial, Psychological and Emotional preparedness. 2. What qualities of a mature person does the author show he possesses? The author has qualities such as patience and that of think more, do less or perhaps think first. He also learns his lessons not only based on his own experiences but also from his friends. 3. What qualities of an immature person do you find in his friends? His friends are considered immature since they possess recklessness and irresponsibility. This is where the tagalog saying takes place, Ang pagsisisi ay nasa huli. 4. Have you had any encounter with incidents similar those of the author? Give a personal reaction to your observation in relation to getting married and having a family. Yes, I had similar incidents that I encountered. In fact, my first cousin was caught up with this kind of situation. I know that it is kind of wrong to do premarital sex when youre still not married. But considering their status today, I can say that he made a mistake at first, suffered and sacrificed for it, and now playing his role. After the incident, my cousin and his girlfriend got married, now raise their second child and living a stable life. It is a good feeling that this kind of situation opens up another making one or several person more responsible. Summing it all up, responsibility is the key to prevent this kind of incident from happening. And responsibility is also the key to getting out of this state.
