Portrait of the Filipino Family

INTRODUCTION



We have so much to learn about a Filipino Family. They taught us values in life that through these values and cultures we became better. Filipinos have so many great cultures and traditions that need to be passed from one generation to another. We should go out there and let the whole world know how capable Filipinos are. We should be proud that we have a blood of a Filipino. And as a Filipino, I want the world to know that we can do a lot of things that others can't.

I hope through this blog, you'll learn how to love and appreciate being a Filipino. It is not something to be ashamed of. Be Proud.

STRENGTHS AND WEAKNESSES

| Loyalty within the family
| Filipinos are family oriented
| The super ordination of the family over individual interest
| Concept of Family Solidarity
| Maintains expressive and emotional relationship
| The impact of modernization on the family
| Ability to survive
| Extreme Family-Centered
| Lack of Discipline
| Kanya - kanya syndrome
| Colonial Mentality

Our sense of joy and humor serves us well in difficult times. It makes life more pleasant.

The Filipino child grows up in an atmosphere of affection and over protection, where one learns security and trust but also being dependent to others.

In the family, children are taught to value the family and to learn its importance.

Life is Music

KARAOKE

Filipinos love karaoke. Not only because it breaks the ice and entertain all family members, but because, Filipinos love music ever since. In our culture, we have folk songs, the “Bahay Kubo”, “Leron Leron Sinta”, etc. that we already knew since birth. And as we grow up, we were accustomed having this passion for music. In Filipinos’ belief, without music, life would be really dull and boring.

This is the new trend.
