I. INTRODUCTION
Family is the fundamental unit of society which is entitled for the protection of
state and also the society. One of the primary functions of the family is to produce and
reproduce persons—biologically and socially. Thus, one's experience of one's family
shifts over time.
From the perspective of children, the family is a family of orientation: the family
serves to locate children socially and plays a major role in their enculturation and
socialization. From the point of view of the parent(s), the family is a family of
procreation, the goal of which is to produce and enculturate and socialize children.
However, producing children is not the only function of the family; in societies with a
sexual division of labor, marriage, and the resulting relationship between two people, is
necessary for the formation of an economically productive household.
In a traditional Filipino family, the father is considered the head and the provider
of the family while the mother takes responsibility of the domestic needs and in charge of
the emotional growth and values formation of the children. Children see their mothers as
soft and calm, while they regard their fathers as strong and the most eminent figure in the
family. Another particular trait of Filipinos is their strong respect for elders. Children are
taught from birth how to say “po” and “opo” to teach them as early as possible how to
properly respect their elders. These words are used to show respect to people of older
level. Upon arriving home, conservative families expect children to practice the kissing
of hands or touching their parents' or elder family members’ hand to their foreheads with
the words “mano po” as a sort of greeting.
When Filipinos get sick, they usually find an excuse to evade a visit to the doctor
and rely on other people’s advice instead. One common excuse is financial constraint.
Thus, they find the health opinions of experts in the magazines and newspapers very
useful according to Cabral (2009).
