The story Pira- piraso reflects the most common social phenomenon
experienced by many Filipino families nowadays linked to poverty. This is the
reason why a family member need to leave their families to work abroad to
support the needs of their families. Just like the simple story but very touching
story we've watch. It shows the story of an OFW named Minda who worked in
Hong Kong for almost two years, who leave her family in order for her to give
them a wealthy and fortunate life. But the life she dreamed off for her family
became only a dreamed. Because all the money she was sent for her family was
wasted by his husband (Cardo) who gave his mistress a financial support and
everything she wanted. Her absence as wife, as a mother or as a parents to her
children has a big impact to them. Just like his husband who cheat another
woman to fulfill his loneliness. The relationship in a family may changed because
of the absence and lack of communication towards them. The behavior of a child
may exhibited behind their feelings and thought. They may felt being abandoned,
lack of parental care, and being confused that may result to the anger of a child to
his/her parents that sometimes result to act of rebellious way. Like the
characters of the three siblings Robert, Leni and Liza who show the negative
effect that may do of a teenager. Robert always going home late and sometimes
involve in a fight, as well as the youngest Liza who always with her friends who
serves as substitute for the absence of their parent/s, who once try to imitate
the daily habit of their father who always drunk. And lastly the middle child, who
made a big mistake for herself, Leni got pregnant at her young age.
