    Filipino Family Then and Now

    Uploaded by

    Trixie de Leon
    Filipino families have changed significantly over time due to modernization and globalization. Traditional Filipino families were larger, had strict hierarchies with the father as the sole head and provider, and placed great importance on respect for elders. Modern Filipino families are typically smaller due to family planning programs. Both parents often work and share household responsibilities. Delayed marriage and nontraditional family structures including same-sex couples are now more accepted, though Filipino families remain defined by their strong sense of love and family bonds.

    Filipino Family Then and Now

    Family, a word that so many people know, but only few understand. Here
    in the Philippines, family shows the culture, beliefs, and traditions that only
    we, Filipinos, possess. We are now in the modern era whereas changes are
    inevitable. In virtue of that, Filipino families need to cope up with these
    changes. Looking on how globalization changes the culture, beliefs and
    traditions of our country, these are some of the apparent changes in what so
    called a Filipino family has today.
    In the prevailing years, Filipino family followed old tradition. There was
    more respect in elderly. The size of a family is smaller than that of previous
    years because the government promotes different kinds of family planning
    unlike before. Today, both father and the mother considered the head and the
    provider of the family unlike before only the father is considered the head and
    the provider. In addition to that, a lot of Filipino families have to put up with
    separation. Both the mother and father tend to go abroad because they think
    that Philippines is not good anymore to live in. In consequence to that, the
    family becomes like Americans who are broken by distance. Also, Filipino
    teenagers and their parents are now more open minded to each other. Unlike
    before that talking back against your parents are considered disrespectful. Notso-usual family configurations are already present. Man-to-man, woman-towoman, etc. are being tolerated in our society today unlike before. It is already
    normal seeing a couple having two same-sex people who want to have children
    through adoption or surrogation. Lastly, delayed marriages are getting to be the
    practice. There are many who decide to get married after some time of living
    together.
    Even though, modernization changes the way how a normal Filipino
    family lives, still the eminent definition of Filipino is present. Filipino family is
    known for their love that is different among any family in the world.
