“Teen moms, wag isipin na hadlang si baby para makuha niyo yung dream niyo instead gawin niyo silang inspirasyon. Patunayan natin sa mga tao o sa mga parents natin na kaya pa din natin makapagtapos kahit na may na may baby na (Teen moms, don’t think that your baby is an obstacle in realizing your dream, instead be inspired by them. Let us prove to people or our parents that we can finish school even with a baby,” advised Emjhei Guerrero, a teenage mom who recently graduated from Sienna College of Taytay.

Guerrero shared her inspiring story on her social media account. The post has since become viral, gaining massive support, as well as criticism.

Here is her complete message:

Akala ko hindi na ko makakapag aral o makakapagtapos nung araw na binigay ka sakin ni Lord. 3rd year college ako nun, isang taon na lang gragraduate na pero bigla kang binigay sakin ni Lord, hindi ko alam gagawin ko ng mga panahong yun, ang nasa isip ko lang paano na, paano ko mag aaral, pano ko magagawa yung gusto ng parents ko para sakin.
Pero hindi, sinabi ko sa sarili ko na di pwede yun, 3rd year 2nd sem na nagenroll pa din ako kahit may anghel na ko, di ko alam kung anong mangyayari samin magina nun, na baka pag pumasok ako e matagtag ako pero go pa din pray lang.
Umabot na sa part na may morning sickness na ko, na masama pakiramdam ko pero pasok pa din, lumalaki na tiyan ko nun 7 months na, nanjan na yung mga studyante na ponagtitinginan na ko, pinagchichismisan, pero di ko sila pinansin, wala naman silang alam sa mga pinagdaanan ko hanggang sa May 24 nanganak ako, syempre
June pasukan nanaman 4thyr na, kahit kakapanganak ko lang kahit na may chance na pwede akong mabinat di ko pinansin go pa din para matupad ko yung pangarap ng parents ko.
At eto na yun, yung araw na pinalahihintay ko.
Hindi totoo na magiging hadlang o di ka na makakapag aral kung maaga ka man nagkaanak. Para sakin, lalo ko kailangan makapagtapos dahil may anak na ko. Dagdag inspirasyon kumbaga. umabot na sa point na gusto ko na maggive up sa hirap ng mga gawain sa school pero lagi kong sinasabi at tinatatak sa isip ko na PARA SA ANAK KO, at eto nakuha ko na nga.
Teen moms, wag isipin na hadlang si baby para makuha niyo yung dream niyo instead gawin niyo silang inspirasyon. Patunayan natin sa mga tao o sa mga parents natin na kaya pa din natin makapagtapos kahit na may na may baby na.
This one’s for you my baby girl! I love you so much.
Thank you Lord!

While most have people applauded Guerrero for her words of encouragement for teen moms, some have accused her of encouraging early motherhood. Others have belittled her accomplishment, saying her graduation was made possible simply because her family is wealthy.

Despite the negative comments, Guerrero continues to hold her head high, knowing full well that her triumph did not come easy. After all, going to class while struggling with morning sickness, and sleepless nights studying after putting the baby to sleep, among others, is not an easy feat.

“Teen moms na nakapagtapos din saludo din po ako sa inyo at dun sa iba na naiinggit at gusto mag aral pero may mga prob financial man o walang magbabantay kay baby, SALUDO pa din dahil hindi niyo pinalaglag si baby, yes nagkamali tayo pero di ibig sabihin nun e di na tayo babangon. Makakapag aral din kayo at makakapagtapos in GOD’S TIME! go lang ng go.”

(To the other teen moms who are also graduates now, I salute you. And to the others who want to study but have financial problems, or have no one to take care of the baby, I still salute you for not aborting your baby. Yes, we made a mistake but that doesn’t mean that we won’t pick ourselves up. You will get to study, too, and graduate in God’s time. Just keep on going.)

“TRUST IN LORD and BELIEVE IN YOURSELF,” Guerrero also wrote in a separate post.
