Thanks,.it Huli Leonard, Polynesian guy🤙this is the 2nd video I watched.You speak my minds,Alohaa to you 🤙

[@jaysphilippines]

Hello Huli, cool name. I appreciate your comments and super chat. That's really kind of you!! I am very much hoping one day my grown kids come and visit the Philippines. It's my little secret I keep inside, dreaming of them all in philippines while we all get closer. I am glad you found channel. Hope we get to talk more. I also have Facebook page, jay's philippines. You be safe! Jay

Amen God Bless you and your family. That's why I'm moving to Philippines in June. The people of the Philippines and the culture and of course the food and friendly atmosphere they have their. I'm still learning my wife's family. I love my mother and father in law and the family ❤

[@4302arod]

Thanks again for sharing your story Jay! Watching your videos and seeing your beautiful family, we don't know the trials and tribulations you have had to go through to get to where you are today. I will make my third trip to the Philippines in January and hopefully make it my final stop in 2026. I have learned a lot in the past few years about the Philippines. One of the most important things I learned is the loyalty a Filipina has to her family. She will sacrifice having a better life if that is what it takes to help her family. I would have the same issue with the car situation. Like you, I would have no problem taking care of my daughter and even paying for the car. But, that is not my responsibility. I have six brothers and four sisters. We are a close knit Latino family in South Texas. We all do well financially and some of us do really well. My father passed away 11 years ago. None of us have to give money to take care of my mother. She takes care of herself because she can. We do all the family things together but she does not need our financial backing. The Filipino and Latino cultures are very similar, but we are responsible for ourselves only and not responsible to our mother and father and brothers and sisters who have not done well. We help because we want to, not as an obligation. I think the difference is that there are so many social safety nets here that don't exist in the Philippines.

[@jaysphilippines]

My ex wife was from Honduras. I was excited to have a big family. they really treasures everyone being together. Didnt work out, but got lucky to find Idelyn, looking very positive for the future with our families. it will be fun to share with everyone. lucky for you to have large family, it is a huge bonus in life. stay safe and stay in contact friend.

[@OPMfan65]

I'm Filipino , married to a Filipina (2nd nuptial) and we live in the US. She's the eldest in her family while i'm the youngest in mine. I understand the family structure dynamics in Filipino culture i.e. the role of siblings in a hierarchy. Here's an example, being eldest and despite being married she still feels a need to support her family. Every other month she sends a door-to-door box filled with "stuff" back to her family in the Philippines and other gestures to support to her family. I tolerate it, its just the way responsibility is placed on the eldest. While me being a youngest, didn't have to do any of that stuff.

[@jaysphilippines]

yes, its hard on many in the family who have a responsibility that only some people will ever understand. I took time to understand it myself. it is an adjustment. hope you are doing well, appreciate you,, jay

Training hard again, and trying to stay motivated as one can be when your in ky. I hear you on the life here with dating, being inspired and such. Philippines in short period will change things no doubt. I kinda got lucky. I got a good girl pregnant, some of the others I was also seeing, well let's just say glad it worked out the way it did.

And on the positive side of it, he gets to know he has another offspring. he knew what he was getting into getting married. he has to have thought all this already. he probably loves knowing he left her with a child. i didnt take it as a downer. Id rather see the guy come over and have adventure with what time is left than sit home and age. we gotta age, might as well leave a memory.

[@leticialaoagan9286]

Am a Filipina, it is not exactly a culture. It is a practice in the lowlands. In other parts of the Philippines like us, here in the Cordillera Region, they don't impose on the children to finance parents and other siblings. Be careful too, you in laws might abuse asking for more especially when your wife starts making money. They might be dependent on her. This also happens when a member of a Cordillera family marries in the lowlands like where your married. My daughter inlaw is a lowlander but she comes from a "well-to-do" family , so, they dont need help.

[@jaysphilippines]

Wow, that's really interesting to hear. Never heard all that before. Appreciate that. :) jay

[@ladyofwinterfel8143]

Let her represent the USA because the philippines has alot of miss universe and miss worlds i think its been awhile the US had a miss universe

[@esperanzacorazon9686]

you think that people are laughing at you, that is not true. the truth is, there are so many babies who grew up crying coz their american fathers have left their mothers even before they were born. they are called amerasiaons, and most of them are in san angeles, pampanga. or in subic, olongapo. coz the american military base used to be there. american soldiers used to have sex with prostitutes there. and maybe they did not know they were impregnating everyone. so now, there are so many amerasians, grown up now, who grew up without fathers. some of them are even celebrities now. coz filipinos fiind them beautiful, the filipino concept of beauty is the western type of appearance. those prostitutes didnt know how to have pregnancy control. coz it used to be taboo here. it used to be that the religious discouraged it and we all thought it was bad. women also in the philippines are very virginal, especially just recent decvades ago. it is all changing nowadays but just recenlty, no. women here used to value virginity before marriage as if it's the greatest treasure they have. and women who had sex before marriage or had sex with multiple men, used to be frowned upon or looked down on. and those girls used to be looked at as if they will never be loved by any man anymore, coz they will always be treated like dirty trash, even the rape victims who did not have anything to do with what happened to them. that was before. before, virgins were the norm. now, not anymore. but the change was slow and hard before it came to this. before, filipinas who had sex with men thought the men loved them. even if they were prostitutes. i mean, theres a lot of differences in dating, and with what the american men must be doing to them back in the day, maybe the women were thinking that those americans loved them! idk, i might be wrong, but you could ask your wife or the elders regarding what iom saying. idk if they will be able to explain it, but they know this. you are lucky about adelaine but she is also very very lucky to find someone like you, someone with faith in Jesus, and someone who cant bear anymore the thought of his own baby not knowing him and not growing up with hium. the girl is so l ucky toi have you coz many americans have left so many filipino women who bore thier babies. and you ar aslso so blessed to have adelaine and your baby. she is kind and pure and honest. she is not a money whore. you two, you three, are blessed.

[@SadButTrue__]

im kind of a new subscriber and have a couple questions? when having a baby in the Philippines is a blood test out of the norm to see if someone is actually the father? I'm guess your back in Louisville for a while?

[@jaysphilippines]

i wouldnt say its out of the norm. I cant really say though to be honest. I have never met anyone who told me they did it. To me it comes down to your gut feeling, if it is bothering you i guess you would have to do it to get that doubt over with. but i never had that feeling or thought. Its takes a real special girl to do that, those girls would typically have something about them that would cast doubt. I am in louisville till end of august them off to PHI, for a few weeks solo. then we will all go back for holidays again like last year.

[@edieiyon]

Filipino culture or just economic hardship?...............if you are the eldest in the family and you come from a very poor family, you are expected by your Parents to help them in their daily chores from running errand, washing the clothes, etc. to providing food on the table and sometimes financing to help send siblings to schools specially if the eldest have a stable job. Also, to most Son/Daughters it is one way of showing their appreciation for their Parents specially if coming from a poor family and the Parents have to work hard just to send him/her to College and graduate is the proudest moment for any poor filipino Parents. But for the rich and well educated Filipino families, you don't see this happens. Every poor filipino can relate to this. I for one.......although the second to the eldest. After graduating from a University and was able to get a job after that, I still help my Parents. After I got married, that's when the regular financial assistance stopped. I only provide financial help in times of an emergency.

It's not enough to satisfy me I guess. Always hoping and wishing to be closer. Gets tiresome. Why I went to philippines in 1st place. Videos about that will come soon. Thanks man. Jay

[@henrycuilan]

That is the problem in the Philippines. Once a son or daughter has graduated from school and started to work it seems they are obligated to provide support to the family or take care of the whole family. I don't want to do that to my son.

😩If your gf has responsibility with her parents it's up to you if you want to support her family, now for you baby, it's your responsibility, if she can share for the baby if she is a call center agent she has hmo that cover the check ups.

My husband used to say to me , If i didn’t met you in the Philippines i don’t know what life is now ? I might be in jail 🤣🤣 or maybe i’m a bum 😂 living in the street 😆.

[@jaysphilippines]

Lots of great Filipinas saving their men from a much different life. 😆 he is probably telling you the truth. I know it's easy to get lost in this world, helps when you have focus and a direction. Jay

[@r_donor669]

If you want to live a good life here in the Phillipines, you have to live like the locals, simple lifestyle. It's good your back in the united states, the lifestyle culture your used to

[@jaysphilippines]

Could you imagine having a filipina baby and not learning her philippine culture. I can't.

JAY, WHEN TRAVELING, IF EVER YOU COME THROUGH LAS VEGAS YOU ARE MORE THAN WELCOMED TO STAY AT MY HOUSE, WITH MY MINDANAO ASAWA. EXAMPLE WHEN YOU GET TO BRING ADELINE AND DAUGHTER (SORRY IF I MISSPELLED HER NAME ) AND YOUR OTHER PRINCESS TO THE USA. THEY WILL LOVE TO VISIT HERE [ JUST NOT IN THE SUMMER] IT'S HOT. WOULD LOVE TO SEE YOU GUYS

[@jaysphilippines]

Hello Michael! Wow, that's a great offer and very kind of you. Never been out west since I was a kid in Santa Barbara California with my dad for a few days. Other wise that's all. Vegas sounds interesting, have to see how make that happen. Be fun to meet up and visit. Hope your staying cool, got a shed build going on all week and it's like 100 each day almost. Fun times. Be safe and talk again soon. Jay
