@Q Adventures. Omg Derek such a heart felt vlog and heartbreaking aswell.😢😢 Man it brought tears to my eyes wen you handed her the 5000pesos and even Ai aswell. Your a legend Derek and so kind hearted and everyone should hit that like button,coz this is a vlog worth watching.
Sad story Derek. Poor Jimsel, i felt her sadness. In my experience living on Cebu, parents and their offspring tend to not be very close as the kids grow older and the kids find it difficult to share their feelings with their parents. There is also a tendency for the parents to focus more on discipline than love and understanding so the kids do not feel comfortable approaching their mother or father about their feelings. We have experience of this with a young lady in our family who finds it easier to relate to us about her personal problems than her parents, and she recognises my wife and i as her alternative Mum and Dad.
I recognized a lot about what she said about her early years as a child. She survived her own thoughts and I'm sure she will be okay (if she keeps surrounding herself with good people). Her youth will always leave a scar but she will give it a place. As long she feels and start believe that she matters and is a big asset in this world. Giving her the opportunity to help others may work very therapeutic for her own good.

Westerners don't understand how a small problem to us can be so devastating to a Filipina so much it effects their entire life. It's heartbreaking that not having what we think are basic can cause such emotional problems. Most don't know that "Pag pag" a practice of digging thru the trash and getting any kinds of food to re-cook it as a meal happens All the time in the Philippines. Derek & Ai are truly Great people and Jimsel hopefully realizes what good friends along with wonderful support they can be. I consider myself Blessed to call them "Friends" and I will continue to support his channel and his vision to help others who want to help themselves. 💕 🏍😎
Q, you're a good man. Thank you for your example. You guys really helped her out by listening to her and helping so she can pay for school. What does Jimsel study?
@@qadventures thank you and this was a sad story for her. and was glad to help out in some small way. also can you post her you tube channel link so we can subscribe to it to see if she can get some money with it.
Needing 80 pisos ( I believe about $1.50) for exams and not having it is tragic. Most of us have that under our car seat. The quiet desperation that so many people have to live in every day is heartbreaking. Until the cycle of poverty is broken, even someone helping out, like Derrek and Ai do) is just a bandaid. A wonderful bandaid, but still, until that poverty cycle is broken, people have little chance to breathe.
I hope for all people we are involved with are long term. I prefer to see them through. My failures deprived from them abusing my resources, not being proactive, dishonesty, etc. I don't quit on these kids unless they quit on themselves by disappearing, stealing, lying, etc
Good that you are able to help her and make a funny joke at the end. About the cameras: The front view camera looks very natural. I like that more. May I ask which camera it is? The side view looks very different. I guess its the DJI Osmo pocket 3?
We are experimenting currently. The DJI Pocket is correct. The other camera is my Samsung Galaxy s22 plus. I broke my DJI Action 4 recently and in process of getting new equipment
😢😢🙏🏼🫶🏼. I hope Jimsyl doesn’t let on to many that she has that money,… Also beware of wolves in sheep’s clothing comes to mind. Wishing Jimsel all the best in her studies 👏🙂🙏🏼 Derek, Ai and others who are helping and donating, I salute you all, it makes me cry🙏🏼🫶🏼
You seem to have missed a vital part about such hotlines that people should be aware of: The individuals answering those phones may be strangers, they have also gone through the same issues. It's a requirement to work on such sensitive topics. Unlees they changed the laws and policies since my grandfather last checked (he has a law degree).
My cousin is a volunteer in Brooklyn, NY where for 15 years he has assisted on the "Suicide Hotline" and like most who answer have unfergone extensive training in answering those calls as a person's life can hang in the balance and just having a compassionate ear to listen can be all it takes. Jimsel is Blessed having Derek and Ai who are even more compassionate and empathetic then most will know as he is Just like his videos as i am so Happy to call them friends.
Danm that hurt to hear, 1500 pesos is around 30 dollars not 100. In my country all school children get free education untill Post secondary. If any student qualify for university free scholarship by the state. It is a law here that all kids should go to school until 15 years old. The government provides free school breakfast, free school lunch and transport to and from school paid tax payers money paid by the government . Here many parents do not take their responsibilities towards their children education and some kids create lots of trouble in school. Now hearing this from a student struggling and crying just to manage to complete her education gives me goose bumps. I was able air this interview on the national TV in my country to make everyone hear this so that people can take their education and responsibility seriously here.
Damn primo that was a bit hard to watch. I just wanted to grab that little girl and hold her like a daughter and tell her everything would be ok. My fatherly instincts kicked in. You're awesome for helping her with school. I just bought school supplies for 5 kids recently. They needed backpacks, pencils, notebooks and other things. I do what I can from here. If i could do it from there i would. Anyway keep up the great work you do carnal. When ive got a bit extra, I'll send it to you
Yeah, it was her 2 little sisters that we bought school supplies for on the previous video. Take care of yourself 1st, bro. Have a healthy bank account before even considering helping But I mind my own biz🤭

Derick, thanks for the video, Truely a horrendous experience for a young woman. As a substance abuse counselor (retired) I have to say that you have approach these subjects with extreme caution. Please let her do the talking. Good on you for trying to do good, but, the advice thing can go really wrong. Also, I have found that giving that kind of money may not be the right way. Just saying
@@qadventures it is a "Filipino thing" to show happiness when sorrowful as they are a "Happy People" even though they face Many hardships they take it in stride so much better then us "Westerners" as just living there I can see how they let it slide off their back where we tend to get upset or cry along and feel the same pain as our way of being empathetic. My Filipino girlfriend cracks jokes and makes funny faces as i think she isn't being serious when i say certain things but it is to try and make me feel better. Such a kind people
Not a statement of expertise, but I think people you speak of are of mental illness and you are correct. In most Asian countries, these thoughts derived from depression, desperation, and endless roadblocks
@@RichGPilot it's $89 usd and Derek pointed out she needs to be "a little selfish" and take care of herself first as he wasn't giving her money for home repairs as that will be portioned out.. This was for her school supplies and uniforms as paying for school Has to be paid first as they Won't let you be late for Any reason. This is equivalent to One or Two dinners out in the West as it is obviously a BIG DEAL in the Philippines.
Great Job Q Adventures, of course slimebags like "Sick Grandpa" UA-camr will use content like this to make fun of, He is evil.He already has a video he made making fun of you.
Not to stray from the level of importance of her situation. When I go there should I pack sun lotion and mosquito spray? I almost wonder if you go out of the house with lotion and bug spray over the top of it on your skin? 😅😂😂 don’t wanna get burnt like a lobster or get the dung hay.
Not a good video. You never bring up a topic like this. Mental health is not a joke and depression is not something to do on a vlog with a young child. It's my opinion.
What you say is correct but I don't believe she ever attempted suicide. A 5 yo can't understand the concept of hanging themselves and that cut on the arm was nothing.
@@qadventures your sitting there trying to pull out of her that there was other types of abuse and we know what your hinting at from the uncle. She was already upset.

Given the economical conditions, I understand (don't agree)how this is. Similar to how I was raised but my life was fortunately not as extreme
Excellent show of love and kindness.Two thumbs up Derek.
If possible I might join you one day to give you some assistance on such house projects.

Poor Jimsel 😥she was so worried about the money for school - Thanks Derek and Ai for all you've done for Jimsel and her family.♥
Yeah. In the beginning, she said 10 pesos per notepad and she needs 8, hence 80 pesos. She was worried over under $2USD. My heart sunck
I recognized a lot about what she said about her early years as a child. She survived her own thoughts and I'm sure she will be okay (if she keeps surrounding herself with good people). Her youth will always leave a scar but she will give it a place. As long she feels and start believe that she matters and is a big asset in this world.

I wanted to ask you to ask her this question 🙋 how long more does she half to study 📚 to complete her studies and get her diploma or degree 📜 whatever, because I would be happy to help this young lady so she can have a future, it’s just awful to watch this interview, if you have a email 📧 I can contact you on so I continue to support and help this young lady reach her objective,
Yes, Gerald. My email is Derekquach36@gmail.com
