This was taken during an outreach program conducted by NFJPIA - Region VI in Iloilo City. I saw this kid staring longingly at a group of children who were playing together:

“Why aren’t you playing together with the other kids?”

“They are mean to me. They told me I was ugly because of my cleft lip.”

“Do you believe them?”

“No. My mama tells me I’m handsome every day. I believe my mama.”
