HINDI na palasagot si Kris Aquino sa mga intriga sa kanya ng entertainment press. Pero ibang usapan kapag ang mga anak na niya ang ginagawan ng intriga.

Kaya kahapon, biglang bumulaga ang post niyang ito sa social media, bilang kasagutan sa item ni Ricky Lo sa Philippine Star:

Human-Interest

ALAMIN: Pagbibigay ng 13th month pay sa mga empleyado, paano nagsimula?

“@therealrickylo Marami na kong pinalampas na mga binalita mo about me because I figured for as long as ‘di ko na lang patulan -- ‘di na hahaba pa ang issue. I also reminded myself about all the times you showed me compassion...

Pero pag mga bata na ang nasa HEADLINE, like any parent -- I am PROTESTING: FOUL & UNCALLED FOR. Here are some valid points any parent, whether celebrity or private citizen can identify with especially when navigating the difficult road of moving forward, being positive and trying our best to be mature for a healthy environment for our children.

1. Why steal the spotlight from an innocent 1 year old child’s birthday celebration with such a teleserye like headline? It’s MJ’s day- not Bimb’s...

2. Why rely on an event organizer’s account of who confirmed and who didn’t?

3. Why make a ‘drama’ of the relationship between 2 brothers when 1 of them is barely a toddler and their mothers are okay and in regular communication?

4. Most importantly, why bring “intrigue” on a 10 year-old boy who has never done you harm? I believe it’s time to review Republic Act No. 7610 signed by the 9th Congress from June 17, 1992: AN ACT PROVIDING FOR STRONGER DETERRENCE AND SPECIAL PROTECTION AGAINST CHILD ABUSE, EXPLOITATION AND DISCRIMINATION, AND FOR OTHER PURPOSES.

5. And lastly -- when 2 mothers are living peaceful lives & communicating privately because it is in the best interest of their sons, why do you make that hard to maintain because now we have no choice but to post in order for our children to be seen in the right light? NAKAKAPIKON KASI ANAK KO ANG HINEADLINE without trying to get our side of the story -- madali akong mahanap, so many of your Philippine Star officemates have direct communication with my family -- oh yeah, kung tinawagan nga pala ‘ko, eh, di walang maintrigang headline. Touch me & you won’t get a reaction -- I think I’ve proven that countless times. But write something unverified and meant to put my son in a bad light & you unleash the TIGER MOM in me. I know you are much older & I should be respectful BUT PLEASE RESPECT my rights as a MOTHER. To all Moms PLEASE LIKE if you AGREE that we’ll do ALL to LOVE, PROTECT & NURTURE OUR CHILDREN. ❤ ~Kris”

Ang item ni Ricky Lo ay tungkol sa hindi pagdalo ni Bimby sa birthday party ni MJ Yap na kapatid nito sa amang si James Yap. Kaya kasama sa post ni Kris ang komunikasyon nila ni Michelle Cazzola, ang ina ni MJ, na dadalawin na lamang ito ni Bimby “in private” at nagkasundo naman ang dalawang nanay.

Abangan natin kung saan hahantong ang bagong isyung ito. Hindi na namin kinunan ng side si Ricky dahil tiyak na may paliwanag na siyang ilalabas sa kanyang kolum.
