This happened in the province of Argao, Cebu. It is explained in Inquirer that the man who was stubbed is always having heavy fights with the mother of the girl and it is a scene that their neighbors often hear and see. The said father was known to be a womanizer coming from the 2 jobs he had lost because of having a fling with a co worker. He had worked in DENR (Department of Environment and Natural Resources) and the office of the Mayor in Argao.
Sunday night the girl saw her father and mother fighting. She saw her mother being hit in the head and finally saw the mother's legs being cut by hacksaw that triggered the little girl from taking the knife in their house and stabbed her father.
The father of the girl escaped after being stub by her and as already seen on a neardy grassy lot dead.
A police chief inspector of Argao Alan Batobalunos explained that they took custody of the child at first and later was handed over to DSWD(Department of Social Welfare and Development) for counseling.
The chief further added that the poor girl didn't know that her father died of him hearing the girl said, “Napatay nako si Papa ma? Mapriso ko (I killed papa, ma? Would I go to jail?”).
It breaks my heart to have read this line and it feels so depressing how little children gets the most pain of their mother and father fighting. I just hope that all young men and women would think about this kind of a situation before even thinking of starting a family if not before getting involved with premarital sex since that is where everything starts. It is not easy to raise a family it is financially and emotionally a concern that everyone must be ready.
