NEW YORK, New York (The Adobo Chronicles, New York Bureau) – Move over Greta Thunberg. Your three minutes of fame are over.

Enter Bimby Aquino-Yap, 12-year-old son of Philippine Queen of All Media Kris Aquino, often referred to by some circles as a tiger mom.

Bimby has been invited to speak before a U.N. Assembly of tiger moms to be held next month in New York City.

Originally, the assembly wanted to invite Kris as speaker but after seeing the extensive media coverage Thunberg received after that angry, passionate speech on climate change, it opted to invite Bimby instead.

An assembly spokesperson said that Bimby is not only younger (he’s 12, Thunberg is 16), but also more good looking adorable than the Swedish activist. “He’also the perfect person to talk about how it is to grow up with a tiger mom “ he said.

Loosely, a tiger mom is one who treats her children like she was a general in the army, dictating how her children should behave, what career to pursue (like piano lessons), and how to present themselves before the public eye.

So Krissy!

16-Year Old Greta Thunberg May Be Suffering From Premature Aging

NEW YORK, New York (The Adobo Chronicles, New York Bureau) – Greta Thunberg, the 16-year-old Swedish climate change activist may be suffering from progeria, the premature aging disease.

This was the conclusion reached today by an international group of medical experts meeting in New York City for their annual convention.

The experts, however, said that Thunberg’s case is unique because her disease affects only her thinking and speaking, not her physical appearance.

The teenager recently made headlines for her angry, impassioned speech before a gathering of environmental officials and advocates. She accused adults of ruining her childhood by their inaction on climate change issues.

’”She looks like a 16-year old, but thinks and speaks like a 60-year old,” the experts said, “and that is a clear symptom of pre-mature aging.”

They, however, hope that Thunberg’s speeches are mere scripts prepared by other, real 60-year olds, and not really her own.

“I Was Duped,” Says 16-Year-Old Swedish Climate Change Activist

NEW YORK, New York (The Adobo Chronicles, New York Bureau) – On September 23, 2019, 16-year-old Swedish climate change activist Greta Thunberg addressed the assembled world leaders at the 2019 UN Climate Action Summit held in New York City.

Accusing world leaders of stealing her dreams and her childhood by their inaction on climate change, she opened her speech to the General Assembly with an impassioned introduction, which was widely covered by the media.

Her speech was met with both praise and criticism, with some expressing doubt whether or not she wrote it herself.

Now it can be told. Speaking to The Adobo Chronicles, Thunberg said she was duped into reading the now controversial speech.

When they invited me to the summit, I was told I would simply be providing some entertainment by reading excerpts from the German fairy tale book, “Hansel and Gretel.”
