'Mother Graduate' on MMK this Saturday



  Heard the story of a young mother who brought her baby to school while she attended classes? She caught the attention of many on social media that eventually landed her an episode on "Ma-aalala Mo Kaya."
   The episode, titled "Mother Graduate," gets a replay on Saturday, May 2, on MMK over ABS-CBN. It was directed by Raz dela Torre.


    The cast is led by Erich Gonzales, Geoff Eigenmann, Andrea del Rosario, Michael Flores, Eda Nolan, and Alyana Asistio.
    Growing up in a low-income family, smart and beautiful Vin-zl (Erich) has always strived to excel at school in order to support her family someday. When her sister becomes pregnant at 17 and had to stop schooling, Vin-zl is confident that she would not end up like sister.
     She even graduates from high school as valedictorian and makes it to college, where she meets her boyfriend, Victor. They fall in love.


     Vin-zl (17) unexpectedly gets pregnant and she has to drop out of college to take care of the baby.
     Meanwhile, Victor takes the initiative to support them by working. When Vin-zl gives birth to Vianca, she learns what it takes to be a teenage mother. But she has only started getting the hang of it when she sees graduation photos of her friends on social media.
     As it has always been her dream to finish school, she becomes jealous of her batchmates and wants to go back to school. She asks help from her father to send her to school again and he obliges. Because she and Victor could not afford to hire help to look after Vianca, they decide to take her with them to school. Fortunately, the dean of their college allows them to do this.


     Vin-zl then struggles to juggle between student life and motherhood as Victor continues to support them by working. Despite the struggle, she is a consistent dean’s lister until she graduates college as summa cum laude. When she receives her own graduation photos, she posts them on Facebook, which unexpectedly garner widespread attention, as many people commend her for her strength and resilience.
     At present, Vin-zl is pregnant with her second baby. She and Victor are still together and are working stable jobs, while Vianca is in Grade One.
