Taho vendor carries his Young Son while working

In the quiet streets of a barangay in Binangonan, Rizal, a familiar call rings out: “Taho!” It’s the sound of Richard Paclibare, a 30-year-old vendor, known to his community for carrying more than just his taho containers. Every day, Paclibare goes through the neighborhood selling taho with his one-year-old son in tow, a sight that has become both heartwarming and inspiring to many.

Richard’s story is one of resilience and fatherly love. After his wife left shortly after the birth of their son, he found himself as a single parent, facing the task of raising his child alone. With no one to care for his son while he works, he has no choice but to bring him along each day as he sells taho. 

Balancing his heavy taho containers on one shoulder and his child on the other, Richard navigates the streets, calling out to customers and serving them with a smile. Despite the challenges, he remains committed to this daily routine, determined to provide a better life for his son. His dedication goes beyond just earning money—it reflects his deep sense of responsibility and love.

Residents who see Richard and his son are often moved by his story and the sacrifices he makes to support his child. Many people share that his perseverance is a powerful reminder of the lengths parents will go to for their children. In a world where taho vendors are a common sight, Richard’s story stands out, showing how love and resilience can redefine even the simplest jobs.

Richard’s journey has resonated with thousands, especially as videos of him and his son have circulated online, capturing the hearts of those who understand the sacrifices that parenthood entails. His story reminds us that even in the most challenging circumstances, love for one’s child can be a powerful force for resilience and strength.
