Single mom si mama, si papa naman ay mayroon ng ibang pamilya,&quot; he wrote.</p><p>The actor said he was primarily raised by his mother and recalled the financial hardships they experienced growing up. &quot;My mom has always been my mother and father in one. I&#x27;ve seen her took different roles in my life. We were struggling.&quot;</p><p>Jerald remarked that the struggles they experienced motivated him to give his mother a good life. &quot;Naalala ko sabay kame nagising ni mama, humingi ako ng baon. Nakatulala siya tapos biglang nagsalita &#x27;pasensya na anak, hindi ako aka delihensya..wala akong maiaabot sayo&#x27; ngumiti ako sa kanya, tapos naglakad na lang ako, 3 kilometro papuntang eskwela. From that moment, i knew I have to give her a life that she deserves,&quot; he remarked.</p><p>Meanwhile, Jerald revealed that he rarely spent time with his father while growing up, noting that the last time they went out together he was still a child. &quot;Si papa bihira kame magkasama.
