Our Values in Danger

Filipinos are hospitable for when a guest came to visit our homes, we welcome them with open arms. Bringing out the new things we have just for the guest to use, and every time a guest is present we immediately prepare foods for them. Respect for Elders is a big for each Filipino. We are always courteous both in words and in actions to the people of older age. Every time each one of us talks to an elder we always use “po” at “opo” as a sign of respect to them and “pagmamano” is also a sign of how we respect our elders. It all depends on the environment that the child grew up and on how his/her parents value the Filipino values. It may as well be that worldwide changes of the world that caused these values to be forgotten.

Children who have access to the modern media have deteriorated to little values at all. Major factors as adulterated minds of children of their age, comedians who use disrespect as a funny thing, and many other factors.

Our society today does not value family nearly as much as in the old days because people usually spend their time using media technology instead of spending that time together as a family.
As people become more and more obsessed with media, the more our morals and values decline over the past years. Every minute of the day, the society is completely consumed by technology nowadays. Morals and values are being taught in today’s generation through the media whether people notice it or not.

We can’t stop change for it’s the only constant thing in the world. Change is already a part of us. If we won’t change we won’t be able to conquer the incoming challenges.
