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.

Novelty Songs


Most Filipinos love listening to novelty songs and the reason is this song helps them in forgetting their problems even though it's just in a short period of time. These songs are loved by everyone because it is a comical type of song performed principally for its comical effect. Maybe this is one of the unforgettable songs because you can hear these from place to place. It's like everywhere. It makes us happy, although in some they find it corny and cheap. Yet we can not judge them, because it’s they’re belief in treating those songs but the important is "basta ang mahalaga, masaya tayo lahat" or sort of. These songs are for everyone and if you don't like them, let's just respect them.

These songs give joy to Filipinos. Hearing these songs can make you dance and join the beat of the song.

Lito Camo is the most famous composer of novelty songs.
Famous Novelty Artists are Willie Revillame, Joey De Leon, Vhong Navarro, etc...
