Cristy Fermin, Opposes Sen. Robin Padilla’s Statement on Bullying!
In the latest episode of her talk show, columnist Cristy Fermin discussed Sen. Robin Padilla’s previous statement about bullying Romel Chika.
Sen. Robin made headlines after expressing her honest thoughts and opinions about physical and mental bullying in the Senate hearing for the implementation of the Anti-Bullying act, particularly in schools.

“It just so happens that Senator Robin has taken sides with physical bullying, it’s okay with him. He says you’re just being poked and prodded, it’s okay with him,” Cristy Fermin said.

Cristy shared the sentiments of other netizens, especially mothers, who reacted negatively to the Sen.’s statement.

“Well, our countrymen, especially the great mothers of the house, responded. ‘Hey, Mr. Robin Padilla, common sense is free. Maybe you want to buy into that? My children, I raised them not to allow them to be physically hurt. If I were you, I wouldn’t lay a hand on my children, would I allow others to hurt them?'” Manay continued.

According to their discussion, it seems that Robin can only say these statements because his children do not experience bullying.

“If Daniel Padilla were to be beaten in front of him, would he allow it? Of course not, right? Because that is physical bullying. What is that? They will punch you in the nose, they will punch you in the ear, they will push you, they will hit you, they will hit you, they will force you, will you allow it? Me too, I will not allow it,” Cristy Fermin emphasized.
