 YUMMY NA, OK PA TUWING KUWARESMA 
NAGKALAT ang mga sariwang pagkaing hango sa dagat sa mga palengkeng tulad nito sa Maynila. Sa maraming Katolikong sumusunod sa abstinensya tuwing panahong ng Kuwaresma,katakam-takam ang mga putaheng ito. Kaya nga lang tuwing ganitong panahon din tumataas ang halaga ng seafood.

Iwan abusadong mister mo
The monsignorsaid the basis forChurch annulment incases of domestic vio-lence is “psychical im-maturity”.Fr. Armand Tangiof the Society of St.Paul assures na hindikasalanan ang gina-gawa ng isang misisna iiwan ang misterpara makaiwas sapananakit, lalo nakung dumarating sapuntong nanganganibang kanyang buhay.“The moral obliga-tion of any human be-ing is to life,” aniya.“It’s more (of) asin not to protect theinviolability of one’sown life,” paliwanag

N OUR predominantly Catholic so-ciety, militant sectors often blamethe Church for the prevalence of domestic violence.
They accuseCatholic bishops of discouraging battered women from leavingthe home despite thepain inflicted by theirpartners.This is to keep in-tact the family whichis considered the ba-sic unit of society.Catholic priestshowever, assure nahindi ganito kakitidang utak ng Simba-han.Kapag nasa panga-nib na ang babae,preserving her well-being becomes hermoral obligation.“Wife battery is ac-tually a basis for thedeclaration of nullity (of marriage) saChurch,” explainsMonsignor MarioMartinez, a Canonlawyer and parishpriest of the Resurrec-tion of Our LordParish in ParañaqueCity.Moreso “kapagregular” ang panana-kit, dagdag niya.pa niya.Fr. Rey BernardMartinez of Sto. NiñoParish in Tondo,Manila agrees.He said a batteredindividual who conti-nuously suffers“should consider any option available to befree or get out (of)that experience of hell.” A priest assignedin Metro Manila warns that if a bat-tered wife remains ina violent environ-ment, “she will bemartyred. Walkingout is for her safety.”The priest who re-quested anonymity noted however, thatthe clergy cannotopenly endorse theact of leaving theabode.“If the womancomes to a priest dur-ing confession, she will be advised to stay away from her hus-band or probably re-port the violent inci-dents to the police but we cannot openly tellfemale parishioners toleave their violenthusbands,” he said.The priest alsoqualified that domes-tic violence, and noother agenda, shouldbe the sole reason abattered womanleaves her husband.Meanwhile, a Visayas-based priestrecalled cases wherethe battered wife isallowed to leave thehome “until magbagoang offender at saka(pa lang sila)magkakabalikan.”

SILENCE cannot beconsidered golden ka-pag domestic violencen a a n g p i n a g -uusapan.“The first step is tobreak the secrecy,” aniDr. Honey Carandang,isang kilalang childpsychologist.Sa maraming kasokasi, the attacks stoponly when the deeds of the violent partner, of-ten male, are exposed.Umiiral ang kahi-hiyan kapag kumalatna sa mga kamag-anak at kapitbahay nanananakit ang padrede familia so nahihin-to ito.In 2007, 6,679 cas-es of domestic violenceagainst women wererecorded in the Philip-pines, prompting AvonPhilippines to launchits Speak Out AgainstDomestic Violencecampaign last month.Matindi ang stigmang domestic violence. And often it is direct-ed againstthe bat-t e r e d woman. At thisday andage kasi,may mgat a o p ar i n g t u-matang-g a p n anormal orgiven in as o c i e t y a n gpananakito p a g -control nglalaki sa babae. Ang pagsusumbongis discouraged dahilmagdudulot lang itong kahihiyan sa pam-ilya.Sa kaso pa nga ngdomestic violence sur- vivor na si Rose Rigos,she chose to keep qui-et about the beatings“to protect him frommy own family.” A n iR u f f aG u t i e r-r e z ,spokesper-s o n o f  A v o n ’ snew cru-s a d e ,“ s o m e-times them e n d onot knowthat whatthey aredoing is wrong. Inmy case,my hus-band still blames mefor leaving.”She added that when a woman “has afamily to protect,nagkukunwari siya(that everything is al-right).” Violence in thehome comes in many forms.Most rampant nasiguro ang physicala b u s e t u l a d n gpananampal, pam-bubugbog, paninipa,panununtok or theuse of objects to inflictpain.Philippine laws al-so recognize sexualabuse which involves violence of a sexualnature.Ps y c h o l o g i c a labuse, on the otherhand, include emo-tional blackmail, pag-mumura at panlalaitto erode a person’sself-esteem.Meron ding eco-nomic abuse where anoffended party ismade to believe na wala siyang kuwen-tang tao simply be-cause wala siyang in-come, mas kaunti angkita niya or umaasasiya ng kabuhayan salalaking abuser.
