Elijah Alejo, Lexi Gonzales, and Hailey Mendes


Read what Elijah Alejo, Lexi Gonzales, and Hailey Mendes think about adulthood after coming of age.

As lead stars of the afternoon series Underage Lexi Gonales, Hailey Mendes, and Elijah Alejo get older, the Serrano sisters all agree that despite slowly turning into adults, they still need guidance from their parents.

According to Lexi during their interview on GMA Regional TV's Biztalks, the three of them could agree that “it's hard working young and all the more you need the guidance.”

She added that even in their adulting stage, they still need “people that would help us na alam natin masasalo tayo.”

“I think kahit anong edad pa, ako, kahit na tumanda pa ako, lagi at lagi akong tatakbo sa nanay ko,” Lexi said.

Elijah said that she has the same sentiments as Lexi, adding that she believes in the phrase that no man is an island.

“Ang kakampi natin sa mundong ito is 'yung parent natin e, yung family natin. Kahit anong mangyari, through thick and thin, andyan lang sila para sa atin,” she added.

Hailey, on the other hand, shared her realization that no matter how many friends you have, “iba pa rin yung magulang mo na kilalang-kilala ka e.”

“Kumbaga, alam na nila 'yung mga ayaw at gusto mo, papaano ka iga-guide, paano ka tutulungan kung manghihingi ka ng tulong,” she added.

Despite the three young actresses turning into adults, they said that they still enjoy being a kid sometimes.

“'Yung energy namin na super taas na magugulat ka na lang. Yung tipong hindi po kami nauubusan ng energy kaya po kahit anong bagay na pwede naming gawin,” Elijah said about being young.

For Lexi, the best thing about being young is the freedom.

“When you're young, it's ok to commit mistakes kasi bata pa 'ko, I'm just discovering things. The freedom,” she added.

“Carefree ka pa kasi bata ka pa, pwede ka pa maglaro-laro kahit may dumi ka, ok lang,” Hailey added.
