This is the first time Piolo Pascual replied to an Instagram user under account name @joydagz7252009 who posted a comment on Pokwang’s post and said “The bakla piola”. Piolo then searched for @joydagz7252009 account, took a screen shot of her account and posted back tagging her user name with “I hope your daughter (if she is) grows up to be a respectful person..”
Upon realizing what he did is wrong, Piolo Pascual immediately deleted his post on Instagram. But this is not enough to the relative of the basher who have sent her open letter and published at Fashion Pulis.
Here’s her open letter (Originally published on Fashion Pulis):
Dear Fashion Pulis,
I’m a mother of two beautiful children and one of them is involved with PIOLO VS. BASHER scoop you have.
Every God-given day, young as they are, I never fail to mention to my children to be good and not to be bullies to other kids. It breaks my heart when I see people rant about “stop bullying” and then five seconds later, they’re bullying someone else.
As a mother of the child in the photo, I am deeply hurt that my daughter’s right was violated merely because the person ( a relative of mine ) who’s with her in the photo called Mr. Piolo Pascual, gay. I know it’s very insensitive of that person to make inappropriate comments like that… I get it… it’s wrong. But what I can’t tolerate is Mr. Pascual exposing my innocent child to the world to get back at the person who wronged him. Now my poor child’s reputation is tainted.
Mr. Pascual is also a parent and he should understand what I’m going through right now. We do our best to protect our children’s innocence, and for him to do what he did is really off the mark. Him exposing my minor child to the world, it’s not just a copyright infringement but also invading my child’s privacy. Please note: US- Children’s Online Privacy Protection Rule (COPPA)
Seriously! This relative of Piolo Pascual’s basher aka @joydagz7252009 on Instagram has all the guts to tell what’s wrong with the actor and even ask for an apology. Why not ask your relative first to apologize to you so next time you’ll take cautious of who displays your child’s picture on the internet.
