Short stories to make you cry at Christmas

Philippine commercials for Christmas time

.............

the first is about a widow of a soldier, and the second man is alone because although he has many photos of children, none are there.

note how many are about families separated because the parents or children are working elsewhere? Poverty forces someone in every middle class family to find work, often abroad (although now they do have call centers etc).

but the emphasis is family in all of them.
