THE WORLD IS AN APPLE It is a story about a man, named Mario, who suffered in extreme poverty, so, he walked through the sinful road. He steals with his friends to experience pleasures. He gained a lot of money from it. However, he changed when he met Gloria who is a pious woman and he became her husband. Gloria, despite of Mario's past, she accepted him because she believed that Mario will change. Indeed, Mario had changed. He chose a legal job. For four years, his family suffered in poverty but, Mario never went back to the life he had before, because he knew that his wife will get angry, until such time God tested his faith. His daughter, Tita, fell ill because she has not eaten anything nutritious. And because of this, he was forced to steal an apple for when he took his daughter for a walk, they passed a grocery store that sold delicious apple as they're on their way home. His daughter wanted him to buy one but he couldn't because he has no enough money that time. What he did is he buys her one of small green apples they sell on the sidewalk, but she just threw it away, saying it was not a real apple. And for an apple, he lost his job. He did not inform his wife about it because he wanted her not to worry. He looked for another job but he never found one, so, he approached his friend, Pablo, and told him that he will join their group again. He was tired to do good things. He wanted his family to have a beautiful life, so, he chooses to return to the life he had before, the stealing. One day, he arrived home. His wife slips her finger to take some money to buy Tita a biscuit, but Mario was annoyed and moved away from his wife. Then, they began to quarrel. Gloria was asking some of the money from his pay but Mario insisted that he has none. Mario told her that he spent it all for a woman and drinks but Gloria didn't believe in it. So, Mario told her everything. Gloria got angry after hearing it. But, Mario told her that he had found a good job and his going to meet someone. Gloria then became glad after hearing it, not until Pablo showed up. She hated Pablo because Pablo was one of Mario's friends who do illegal things. Pablo offered some money to Gloria but, Gloria did not accept it. Pablo came to their house to fetch Mario because he thought that Mario would change his mind. He even told Gloria about Mario willing to work with him. Gloria was shocked and she insisted that Mario wouldn't do such things like that because she knew that Mario knew anything that makes her angry. But, Mario confirmed it to her that what she heard is true and that he only wanted what is good to his family. Gloria convinced him not to go and reminded him of God. But, Mario never listens to her. He told her to take good care of herself and that he will be home safely. Gloria was then left crying with her daughter. RETELL PO IN THE STORY THANKYOUU.​

The consequences of early childbearing can be devastating, affecting not only young mothers but also their children, families, and the broader society. Together, we must create a culture where barriers are addressed, and where all adolescents and their families have access to accurate information and services, empowering them to make informed decisions and enhance their overall well-being.”Save the Children Philippines is helping parents and caregivers to communicate with adolescent children about sexuality and reproductive health through Healthy, Empowered and Responsible Teens or our “HEART to Heart” programme in all three major islands across the country: Luzon, Visayas, and Mindanao.Save the Children has been working in the Philippines since 1981 with programmes in humanitarian response, health and nutrition, education, and children's rights and protection.or maybe about this "MANILA, June 21 (Xinhua) -- Teenage pregnancy incidence in the Philippines has decreased but remains a concern, said the country's official agency Commission on Population and Development on Wednesday."The decrease in teenage pregnancy remains a cause of concern surrounding girls 15 to 19 years old, and more so for those younger, as the latter has an increasing trend in the number of births as the yearly civil registration data showed," Lisa Grace Bersales, the commission's chief, said.The commission closely monitors teenagers aged between 10 and 14 who are still considered children, while the 2022 National Demographic and Health Survey conducted by the Philippine Statistics Agency (PSA) did not include children under 15, she said."We need to work more on our teenagers to lessen, if not make zero, pregnancies among them. As we have always maintained, 'Each teenage pregnancy is still one too many,'" Bersales added.The government survey said the spacing between children's births widened from 36.8 months in 2018 to 46.5 months in 2022. Bersales said the data "greatly promotes better health and well-being for Filipino mothers and their young children."In January, the PSA said teenage pregnancy among Filipinos aged 15 to 19 in the Philippines declined from 8.6 percent in 2017 to 5.4 percent in 2022.In 2022, the data showed that 19-year-olds had the highest pregnancy percentage recorded at 13.3 percent, followed by those aged 18 at 5.9 percent and 17 at 5.6 percent. The lowest teenage pregnancy rate was among those aged 16 and 15.The data showed that teenage pregnancy was lower in urban areas at 4.8 percent than in rural areas at 6.1 percent. ​
