Family is the basic unit of society, a society is within the barangay, and a
barangay is composed of families. Family relationships are an integral part of life for
most people around the world. Decisions about migration are tied together with family
responsibilities. Settlement is also affected by family dynamics, and vice versa. The
definition of “family” is inherently cultural. Although in many cultures “family” refers to
people related to each other genetically or through marriage, it can also include groups
who are cohabiting, fostering, or in many other arrangements.

6. EVALUATION
When the researchers were conducting a survey they experience difficulties in
collecting the data. In some puroks of Mangan-vaca the residents were hard to
approach because they think that the researchers are scammers and the survey was
some kind of joke. Because of these difficulties, in some way it affects the result of
collecting information that were needed but the researchers didn’t see it as hindrance
in conducting a survey and find ways on how these problems result a positive way. If
the researchers were given a chance to conduct another survey again, they will accept
the recommendation of bringing proof or letter that will prove that the survey are
100% real and approved by the barangay, documents that will say it is for school
purposes to clarify the intention of the researchers and lastly the researchers should
try to be more approachable and friendly to the target people.
