The Future of the Filipino Family in a Changing Society

       The Filipino family struggles to keep pace with the changes brought about by modernization.

        So, what are the factors that pressure them? Do you kjnow? Now, these is the time, to share it to you.

For you to know, the following sentence are  the changes in technology, in the system of education, in the economic situation, and in the political and social spheres of life bring about corresponding shifts in the mores of our fellow Filipino family. All throughout, the spread of mass media, exposure to industrialization, and urbanization inevitably create clashes between traditions and modernity.

What I’m telling you now pressures the families to make a serious reexamination of their values and practices. In many instances, they break with the past and adjust to the present and the future. The present vitality of our fellow Filipino family do suggests that it is making this adjustment and, thus ensuring its survival. In this transition period, some of the functions of the family are being absorbed by other social institutions such as church and the school.

     Yet do you know? that our fellows, despite the ongoing changes, they remain a source of emotional and psychological satisfaction and economic survival.
