Maine Mendoza is praised by internet users for urging a young mother not to give her seven-year-old son responsibility.

The older generations have thought that bearing a child is the solution to poverty. They just bear a child and the child shoulder all the problems of the family. You need to graduate to help the family get out of poverty which is if you think is not the right thing to do.

Bearing a child in this world is helping and molding them to be the best version of themselves and let them experience how great the world is not letting them suffer.

Viewers and users of social media praised Maine Mendoza for gently reminding a contestant on "Eat Bulaga" not to put the pressure on her seven-year-old son to do better in life so he can lift the family out of poverty.

25-year-old Incess was one of the contestants who was interviewed by hosts Ryan Agoncillo, Maine Mendoza, Wally Bayola, and Jose Manalo in an episode of the noontime show's well-liked "Bawal Judgmental" segment. Each contestant had five kids and was 25 years old or younger.

Incess was 17 when she gave birth to Ace, an unplanned pregnancy.

Maine gave her own advice after Jose counseled her to get in touch with her parents so she will have support if she needs it.

"Tsaka ang bata mo pa, Incess. Kayong mag-asawa, may pagkakataon pa para palakihin o pagandahin ang inyong buhay," she said, which Ryan agreed by saying that she, too, can still pursue her dreams.

"Tsaka, bata pa si Blake. Ay si Ace. 'Wag natin ipasa sa kanya ang responsibilidad. Marami pa kayong magagawa. Kayo ni Mister," Maine added.

Maine advised her kids to finish their education and not succumb to peer pressure or vices. Additionally, she urged them to ask their parents for assistance if necessary. The topic of parents' obligations and expectations for their children after they graduate from school was raised in discussions by viewers and online users in response to her remark, who applauded her.
