FINDING ALTERNATIVES
Beating the summer heat, Dianne felt it necessary to place an inflatable pool inside her living room to accommodate her three-year-old son's request.
Rodolfo Joaquin Diego Ilustre III, nicknamed Joaquin, simply wanted to take a plunge in the pool.
But she got worried that it may be too hot for her son to swim in their outdoor pool, "It's so hot and told me he wanted to swim inside. So, ayan nag set up kami ni Daddy Rj ng Mini pool niya."
She admits, "At first I was bit hesitant madudumihan and mababasa ang carpet and all...
"Pero naisip ko minsan lang bata si Joaquin gusto ko ma-enjoy niya and ang sala pwede naman patuyuin at linisin ang mga gamit hahha!"
Recalling another time she condoned Joaquin's action, she says, "Same as before nagdrawing siya ng car sa sofa using pentel pen hindi na ko nagalit kasi mapapalitan naman yun haha!
"Kung saan ka masaya anak! Mahal na mahal kita."

DIANNE DEFENDS PRESENCE OF CARPET
With people forwarding their concerns about the carpeted floor where the pool was positioned, Dianne decided to make a follow-up post the following day.
"Nung wala nang araw at hindi na masyado mainit. Nag swimming na si Joaquin with Daddy outside!," she relates, sharing a video of Joaquin and his dad Rodjun Cruz.
"Im so grateful napakabait at sweet ng anak ko! Mommy loves you so much!
"As for the carpet, relax! Hahah Due na rin yan for cleaning so its okay."
She continues, "Hindi masamang pagbigyan ng isang beses ang mga anak natin basta we know our limits and boundaries!
"Marami kasi dyan they judge basing on one posted video!"
On May 7, 2024, Dianne then flexes setting up an inflatable bounce house with slide inside their home to further prove her point.
"My House, My Child, My Rules! Kahit maglagay pa ako ng inflatables sa loob okay lang! [laughing emojis]," she writes in her caption.
