The comedian-TV host made the remark during “It’s Showtime’s” “EXpecially for You” segment on Tuesday, Aug.
20, when the show hosts and the participants were talking about family problems. “Meron akong family pero I don’t feel at home,” searcher Ky said. Vice Ganda then gave his two cents on the matter, saying, “Mahirap ‘yung hindi ka okay sa family.
Napakahirap na problema n’yan. ‘Yan ‘yung problemang parang hirap na hirap kang solusyunan at gawan ng paraan. Kung iisipin mo, mas mahirap pa ‘yan [kesa] makakuha ng gold sa Olympics.
” After wishing for Ky’s healing, Vice Ganda nevertheless acknowledged that there are those who have valid reasons to distance themselves from their families. “Hindi natin ine-encourage ‘yung paglalayas o paglisan sa pamilya, pero hindi mo masisisi ‘yung ibang tao [kasi] ‘yun ang pamamaraan nila para maka-survive, para maituloy ‘yung buhay nila,” he said. “Dahil ‘yung pananatili nila sa loob ng bahay na ‘yon ay maaari nilang ikamatay, ikaupos ng espirito, ikaubos ng kanilang lakas, ikadilim ng kanilang pag-iisip, at ikauubos ng pagmamahal nila.
