INTRODUCTION

This chapter presents the background of the study, statement of the problem,

significance of the study, scope and delimitation and the definition of terms, that provides

the basis and direction to the study.

A. Background of the Study

The parents, marriage, and children form the basis of the family, which is the

most important social unit. Everybody desires for a family that is mentally and

physically well as well as a location to call home. In general, married parents with

kids are seen as full families. However, things aren't always that way with cases.

Therefore, broken families are not unusual; rather, they are common and present in

our environment (Saikia, 2017). Even though family members may live apart, a

family cannot be considered broken based only on problems caused by stress from

job loss, unemployment, or money troubles. As a matter of fact, misunderstanding,

abuse, denial, and other such issues are the root causes of broken families. The family

is the basic unit of society. It is among a country's crucial elements. A family is

housed in a home. The term "home" can also mean "house," although a house is more

aptly used to describe a structural building, whereas "home" alludes to the ethereal

elements that unite family members. The unfathomable love and caring that binds the

mother, father, and kids together (Beckford 2010). One is said to begin equipping
1
oneself for growth in the family, which is the first institution. However, variations exist

within every family. Everyone wants to have happy, healthy family members. However,

every family has been shown to differ. Everyone hopes to have a happy and healthy

family. However, many were unable to succeed. The healthy families have also split due

to various issues. Many families have split down and the members are now apart when

unwelcome things happen. This is a tragic event that has both regrettable and unrestricted

causes.

According to Ekundayo & Oyeniyi (2008) and Adebule (2012), among the

numerous behavioral problems that the society is dealing with in regard to teenage

students are truancy, disobedience, drug addiction, smoking, flirting, stealing, armed

robbery, examination malpractice, cultism, sexual abuse, sex activities, indiscriminate

sex, and homosexuality (gay and lesbianism) (Omotosho, Adeniyi and Bada 2010). In a

study on how teenage social conduct influences their moral behavior, Adebowale (2006)

found that an adolescent's upbringing has a significant impact on both his academic

success and the attitude he will eventually adopt. Any student's life is significantly and

permanently impacted by parental separation. Teenagers, parents' relationship status or

the condition of their home have a significant impact on the child's life. It has been

discovered that one of the main causes of antisocial behavior and poor academic

performance in secondary school teenagers is separated homes.

2
 The consequences of a broken home on children rely on Several factors such as

the child's age and attitude relationships within the family after parents divorced, and the

external situations in which adjustments in the Child behavior can be determined from

even the smallest information of the most difficult, as well as the children's ability to

overcome these obstacles and advantageous situations. The effects of a broken home on

kids influencing the attitudes, emotions, thoughts, and actions, which can be seen by the

rise in unpleasant emotions such as despair, dread, confusion, and worry, guilt, as well as

the spread of false beliefs and actions where certain negative beliefs assume that worsen

children's suffering when there is and broken and dysfunctional family that leaves a

lasting impression Regarding the overall quality of life of teenagers, (Langton C. E., and

Berger L. M.2015).

According to Margot Galang's (2015) study, "Implications of Broken Marriages to

Filipino Children," financial difficulties, a breakdown in communication, adultery, and

domestic abuse are the most frequent causes of divorce among Filipino spouses. Children

caught in the middle of their parents' dislike during a separation often struggle with focus

and attention, scholastic difficulties, anger management, sleep disturbances, and other

behavioral, psychological, and spiritual challenges, according to clinical and therapist

observations. Children from families with problems may face difficulties like a slow

3
internet connection, incomplete school assignments, and terrible noise, all of which might

impair their ability to receive instruction and learn. In order to cope with their,

circumstances, these kids might also need to make changes to their everyday routines,

such performing housework and sleeping at different times. On the other hand, parents

and guardians in unstable families frequently help their kids out financially and

emotionally by offering guidance and helping them with school work. However, children

who are not at home, like Filipino street children, might have far worse consequences.

They are more likely to participate in dangerous activities, feel alone and lonely, and

have negative expectations about the future.

The focus of this study is to know the effects of broken family to the behavior of

students. This will give some information that the researchers gathered from different

sources of the effects of broken family to the behavior of students.

B. Statement of the Problem

The study aims to investigate the multifaceted effects of growing up in a broken

family to students in Calabanga National Science High School encompassing emotional,

psychological, and social aspects, in order to better understand the long-term impact on

individuals and their overall well-being.

4
Specifically, this study will answer the following questions:

1. What is the demographic profile of students?

a. age

b. gender

c. status

d. sex

2. What are the challenges faced by students from broken family?

3. What is the effect of broken family to students, behavior in school?

C. Significance of the Study

The result of this study will be valuable to the following:

Students: These findings might help students understand their behavioral patterns

and issues, providing a sense of self-awareness and empowerment that can contribute to

emotional well-being and personal progress.

Parents: This study is also important for parents to know their children’s behavior. It

can convince parents to seek guidance and counseling services, allowing them to build a

5
stable and supportive family environment that promotes student’s healthy behavioral

development.

Teachers: Understanding the behavior patterns related to students from broken

families could help teachers develop stronger classroom management methods that

address these student’s emotional and psychological needs.

Schools: The school could understand the influence of a broken family on children’s

conduct, allowing schools to take a more holistic approach to teaching that focuses on

emotional well-being and behavioral development.

Community: The community can also help with the importance of encouraging

resilience in students suffering from familial problems.

Future Researchers: This study may be utilized to gain further understanding and

can also be helpful for their research.

D. Scope and Delimitation

This study would want to investigate about the effect of having a broken family to

students, behaviors in grade 11 to 12 TVL students in Calabanga National Science High

School for school year 2023-2024.

6
 To establish for the study was delimited to STEM, ABM, EIM students with different

behaviors of students of Senior High School in Calabanga National Science High School

who came from broken family.

The research shall study only within the students who have a broken family, as being

the participants of the study. This study shall be focus with the current effect to the

students and to know their reasons why they are involving, with a broken family.

The broken family is kinds of family which are the parents are separated. A

broken family will cause your child’s un-respectable behavior. Once the child accepts

new him/her but it takes a time to accept the new version of his/himself and the

behavioral hit will happen in the way.

For understanding the child’s behaviors, you will notice the feelings that will

cause his/her behavior. Most of the students, desire to have a perfect family and do not

want to witness their parents' marriage fall apart. It can sometimes interrupt normal

growth and lead to divorce, which causes a kid to be unhappy since he or she is upset

over the loss of his or her family. (Healthy Children.org a website run by American

Academy of Pediatrics).

There are certain impacts of broken families on child behavior, particularly in

younger and older children. Students are in the worst condition after a divorce since their

parents are no longer around to guide them (Dr. William Sears, askdears.com). They

would sometimes respond furiously and become confrontational with those around them.

10
 According to Marky Chavez (2016), the divorce of two parents can be shocking

and traumatizing for children. As a consequence of the trauma, the child might lose

interest in life and learning. A youngster from a broken home could suffer from

uncomfortable

feelings, self-doubt, and a lack of confidence. Insecure as a result of not having a

complete family. The stress of a divorce can often be too much for a kid to handle, and he

or she may lose interest. The child will continue to feel pain and bitterness. When a

youngster feels this way, he or she is more at risk for anger, sadness, and depression. In

addition to having difficult school days, many victims of bullying also struggle with

depression and low self-esteem (Gourneau, 2012).

As stated of Felitti & Anda (2010), Parental separation affects approximately 30%

of marriages. Children of divorced parents are more likely to have a range of negative

effects, such as problems with their mental and physical health. Functional concerns,

such as recurring emotional and behavioral problems, are commonly seen in children

from broken families.

According to Bzostek, S. H., & Berger, L. M. (2017.It is expected that

adjustments to family resources, parental investments, and the conditions under which

children are raised will arise from shifts in family arrangements. Financial resources,

parental time and attention, and family conflict and stress are the main

ways families structure experiences related to the growth and development of children.

(Amato 2005). However,

11
the effects of the transitions that children go through can vary depending on what

happened, such as early family structure experiences and the order in which they happen.

Due to their children, many couples in the Philippines, where there are no divorce

laws, choose to "postpone" their separation. Telling children that their parents will be

living in different residences is not an easy task. The children suffer confusion,

discomfort, and humiliation as a result. Parents wait until their children are "old enough"

to understand what's going on because they don't want to put their children through this

stress (Perez, 2018).

According to Soriano (2010), One aspect of teenage behavioral problems is

delinquency. According to him, children and teens engaging in criminal or antisocial

activity is known as juvenile delinquency. Most ideas about the causes of juvenile

delinquency have concentrated on children from families with limited resources,

neglecting the reality that children from wealthy families can also become involved in

criminal activity. The latter might conduct crimes as a result of improper parental

supervision.

According to him, the past 25 years have seen changes in families as well. An

increasing percentage of families include one or both working parents; as a result,

children are likely to get less parental attention at home than in a traditional family
12
setting. It is thought that adolescent crime rates are impacted by the lack of parental

supervision.

A factor that causes someone to change their perspective or way of life is a

dysfunctional family (Robert et al, 2016). A person's viewpoint on life, the family, and

their mentality can all be changed by having a broken family. The Filipino students

involved in this scenario find it difficult to express their worries and believe that they are

to blame, which would eventually cause them to become distracted from their academics.

Following their parents' divorce, the children developed rebellious, irritable, and short-

tempered behaviors (Ariston, 2019).

Due to their current situations, children feel alone and ashamed, among other

negative feelings and thoughts. Filipino students may find it difficult to focus on and

understand their schoolwork because they are aware that their parents are not suitable.

Furthermore, adolescents from broken families were at risk of showing unfortunate

behaviors or inappropriate behavior in the classroom (Salahuddin et al, 2019). Students

may become distracted from their studies as a result of their parents' lack of attention to

them and the environment they witness in their homes. It could lead to uncontrolled

behavior and bullying of their classmates. They might become disrespectful in class and

forming inappropriate friendships, among other deviant activities, and their academic

performance could suffer.

13
 However, a family breakup is a typical situation in modern culture (Aktak, 2013).

Misunderstandings and arguments that frequently result in disagreements that ultimately

lead to the separation of the family are a part of every couple's existence. For instance,

daily financial miscommunication is one of the most prevalent issues that couples face.

Budgeting is hard these days, and some people make money from harmful behaviors like

gambling. The pair may have argued over money at first; rather than trying to work

things out and understand one another, they decided to part ways. Different views can

also contribute to a broke family, according to an article, these reasons include domestic

abuse, unforgiving resentment, disrespect, divorce, financial hardship, or illness.

(Zitzman,2019). A little disagreement between the partners develops into an abusive

conflict, at which point they consider divorcing or simply splitting up. Furthermore,

poverty is defined as the state or situation in which an individual or a group of people

lacks the means of subsistence. (Tus, 2020).

Related Studies

A large number of parents who are going through a divorce worry about how their

kids will handle their parent's separation. They are curious as to whether their kids will

grow up to be happy and healthy. Researchers in the fields of psychology and sociology

are starting to provide data regarding whether divorce affects children. According to the

research, the impacts of divorce vary depending on the child's age and gender.
14
Furthermore, the child's personality, the level of parental conflict, and the support system

of friends and relatives can all have an impact on their lives. (http://extension.unh.edu).

Although talking to kids about a divorce can be challenging, it will improve your

bond with them. Additionally, it will keep them confident in you. The exchange of

general

knowledge is suitable. Children will ask for additional information, so you need to

reassure them about what lies ahead.

They may be curious about how they will interact with both of their parents.

Avoiding conflict between parents and kids is one of the things that will improve the

child's well-being. A child's sense of well-being and self-worth will be improved if both

parents agree on matters of discipline, childrearing, and mutual affection and approval.

(http://extension.unh).

Effective sharing of parental duties requires cooperation and communication, which

can be challenging when parents don't get along. A shared residence may not be in the

best option for the child if there is a high level of conflict between the parents. It is

important for parents to be there in their children's daily lives and to show them how

much they are loved and appreciated. It is still possible for a parent who lives out of state

to stay in constant communication with their children through the use of letters, emails,
15
phone conversations, tape recorder messages, and exchange of school-produced

documentation and artwork. (http://extension.unh.edu).

Being in a divorce is a challenging situation. The child ends up with the most

trouble since other people are primarily concerned with what is occurring to the parents,

not realizing the greater consequences on the children. These might not immediately

become apparent or be noticeable at first. The child's life may suffer greatly as a result of

the divorce. It might harm a child's social and psychological development.

(www.studymode.com).

Children raised by single parents may experience severe illness or sadness, try

suicide or kill themselves, or acquire an alcohol-related condition. If he or she had only

one parent, they were four times more likely to become a drug addict.

They think that they seeing is just the broken families having these problems

instead of the low money. The money is really an indicator of something else.

Some kids from families with a single parent never have significant emotional

problems. People who are more irritable have a higher chance of becoming separated, but

they also have a higher chance of producing more irritable children whether or not they

get separated.

This systematic review looks at long-term studies in order to figure out how

family structure affects the behavioral outcomes of adolescents. It sheds light on how
16
various social structures—such as broken families—can affect numerous aspects of

teenage behavior over time. (Ryan, Claessens, & Markowitz, 2016)

According to Sheehan (2010), children from broken families are being looked

down upon in society because of religion and traditional beliefs. Students feel having less

of a

family since their family has been broken or not the “complete” one that many of their

classmate have (Aunindita, 2016). Indicate that low-esteem, anxiety, poor focus, truancy,

depression, and suicidal thoughts are also associated with this (Goumeau,2012). Many

bullies, students suffer low self-esteem and depression and live stress-filled days in their

school(Gouneau,2013).

Theoretical Framework

This study used the “Social Leaning Theory” by Albert Bandura in (1977).

“Family System Theory by Murray Bowen in (1978).

Social Learning Theory, is theory which posits that children learn behavior

through observation and imitation of their parents or other significant adults. In the

context of broken families, this theory suggests that children may model negative

behaviors or coping mechanisms they observe in their family environment.

17
 According to the social learning theory, children learn by seeing and copying their

parents or other care givers, under the situation of a family that is broken, characterized

by conflict or the loss of one parent, children could witness and imitate unacceptable

behaviors

like jealousy, violence, or inadequate communication abilities. These actions might show

themselves in how they behave at school.

Family System Theory. According to this idea, families are complex systems in

which the relationships within the family both influence and are influenced by the

conduct

of its members. This theory holds that families work hard to preserve a state of

equilibrium and that any disruption in the system can have an impact on specific family

members.

In the context, the balance within the family system is upset when there is a

fractured family, such as when there is a divorce or separation. Many changes in family

dynamics, including heightened conflict, changed duties of parents, and different

communication styles, could come from this disruption. The actions of children may be

significantly impacted by these changes.

METHODOLOGY

This chapter presents the methods and the procedures employed in the conduct of

the study. It also includes the research design, research instrument, and population of the

study the data gathering procedure, and also statistical treatment is the foregoing study.

Research Design

The research study will follow the quantitative method, and use a descriptive

research to determine the effect of broken family in students, behavior. It comprises

gathering the information required to respond to the query about the study's present state.

22
 Descriptive research a research that describes the characteristics of the population

or phenomenon studies it involves observing and collecting data on a given topic without

attempting to infer cause-and-effect relationships. We choose descriptive research

because it can be used as secondary data for other research studies, it generates statistical

results. Furthermore, many kinds of data analysis can be applied to the descriptive

research data acquired.

Population of the Study

In this study, the researchers will gather information from Grade 11and 12 TVL

Strand in Calabanga National Science High School. To ensure a comprehensive and

representative sample, a purposive sampling technique will be employed. Purposive

sampling is the deliberate selection of a sample based on the needs of the research. This

means the researchers selects participants because they have indicated their willingness to

participate in the study.

Research Instrument

23
 In the data-collecting procedure, the study will use a standardized questionnaire.

The survey questionnaire will be given to the participants of Grade 11 and 12 TVL

students in Calabanga National Science High School. The questionnaire was developed

based on the study. The survey questionnaire consisted of (10) items that related to the

behavior and its effect. The respondents answered these questions using the 2-point

Likert Scale survey: 1- Agree, 2- Disagree.

To gather accurate data, the researchers looked for a questionnaire that was

related to the study. The behavior questionnaire came from the study of Amato, Paul

R. 2000. About the consequences of divorce for adults and children.” journal of Marriage

and Family. The study of the effect of a broken family questionnaire came from the study

of

Hetherington, E. Mavis, and Kelly J. Connolly. "The effects of divorce on fathers and

their children." The role of the father in child development (2002). The questionnaire that

the researchers looked at was standardized.

Data Gathering Procedures

Due to the fact that the survey questionnaire is standardized, the researchers do

not need to go through the validation of experts. The researchers obtained permission to

conduct the study from the Adviser and principal at Calabanga National Science High

School. After obtaining this permission, the researcher will print the survey questionnaire
24
in the designated number of copies. The researchers will personally deliver the survey

questionnaire to Calabanga National Science High School. After that, we will personally

deliver it to the classroom of respondents. Following that, the researchers will explain the

details of the study to help the participants complete the questionnaire. The researcher

will personally organize the survey questionnaire to the respondents in this study. And

lastly, after answering the questions, all completed questionnaires will be collected,

sorted, and complied further analysis.

Then the data will be analyzed through the use of statistical procedures.

Statistical Treatment of Data

The data collected will be statistically treated with the use of frequency count,

percentage and weighted mean because of their appropriateness to the nature of data to be

analyzed.
