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.

Swine Flu (AH1N1)


During the Swine Flu breakout in our country, you can see everyone’s awareness about the spreading virus. You can see how everyone complies with the precautionary measures just to get away of the disease. Mothers buy their sons and daughters masks and give them shots just to make sure that their love ones will be safe and away from the virus. In this event, you can see how every family member care for the others. During that breakout, there are always reminders from the elders, relatives that totally show their concern for their folks.
