Discipline: Education

This study is intended to determine the lived experiences of students in a broken family and its effects on their academic endeavors. This study utilized the descriptive design. Calderon (2006), defined descriptive research as a purposive process of gathering, analyzing, classifying, and tabulating data about prevailing conditions, practices, processes, trends, and cause-effect relationships and then making an adequate and accurate interpretation of such data with or without or sometimes minimal aid of statistical methods. The following major findings are: broken family relationship does affect student’s academic performance. The family situations corrupt their focus in studying and family problems bothered them while in school. Having a broken family also makes the students feel the deprived belongingness and different compared to other students who have complete and happy. The responsibilities thrown in to them give so much pressure which causes anxiety and depression. It can be concluded that broken family relationships greatly affect students’ attitude towards academic endeavors, most of the respondents from a broken family faced a great challenge, they experienced depression, emotional problems, and insecurity with students who have complete and happy families. Being in a broken family affects their academic endeavors. They are prone to anxiety, depression, and emotional breakdown that affects their academic performance. They cannot focus and sometimes lose interest in studying to the point that their academic performance is affected.

Academic Success

Behavioral Development

Broken Family

Pupils ABSTRACT

Family is the smallest, most sensitive and important social system which is furnished and facilitated by a society as a larger social system. The family, being a powerful influence on the child’s development and important primary agent of socialization could in no doubt enhance or hinder the academic achievement of the child depending on the social climate in the family. This study seeks to evaluate the effects of broken family on behavioral development and academic success of pupils in the public elementary school. There were a total of three hundred (300) identified respondents that belonged to broken families that were selected to participate in the study. The researchers used descriptive- survey research method design to probe the pupil’s knowledge with regards to the topic, and it employed modified questionnaire (Behavioral Checklist from Psychological Associates, 2019) and direct observation in collecting data from the field. It was found out that age, sex, grade level, number of siblings, and person stays with has no direct influence to the pupils’ behavioral development, and however, academic success of the pupils depends on their behavior development. This study concluded that the attitude and behavior of the learner affects their academic success.

1. INTRODUCTION

The home influences the child at the most earliest possible time of his life, at a time when his mind is most receptive. It provides the first impression which may last through the whole life of the child. The child often sees the parents, siblings and things in their immediate environment to be most significant and they are capable of promoting or diminishing him in self-worth and academic performance REF _Ref55237615 \r \h [1] 08D0C9EA79F9BACE118C8200AA004BA90B02000000080000000D0000005F00520065006600350035003200330037003600310035000000 .

The family, being a powerful influence on the child and its importance as a primary agent of socialization could in no doubt enhance or hinder the academic achievement of the child depending on the social climate in the family. Variance in psycho-social emotional fortification in the family background could be an indicator to high or low academic performance of students, bearing in mind the intervening effect of high and low socio-economic status and emotional stability of students which is a pre-requisite to academic achievement REF _Ref55237625 \r \h [2] 08D0C9EA79F9BACE118C8200AA004BA90B02000000080000000D0000005F00520065006600350035003200330037003600320035000000 .

When a family breaks up, it is usually difficult for everyone in the family to cope with the situation; however, children are often the worst victims of family breakup. There are powerful reasons to be alarmed about the impact of broken home on children. The stability of family creates a building block for children to progress throughout life. When parents separate, the children are left with no stability causing them to lose basic concepts of childhood and negative perception that may carry with them throughout life.

Broken families may have profound negative impact on student’s academic performance as parents play an important role in most children’s academic development. Guardians or single parents attributed to limit time that has to spend on their child’s academic work REF _Ref55237636 \r \h [3] 08D0C9EA79F9BACE118C8200AA004BA90B02000000080000000D0000005F00520065006600350035003200330037003600330036000000 .

The problem of broken home are universal phenomenal which affect both developed as well as the under develop country. A home is the walls of the house but the people who live on it make a home. A house only becomes a home, when if complete. A home also became a house when is not broken.

It pointed out REF _Ref55237643 \r \h [4] 08D0C9EA79F9BACE118C8200AA004BA90B02000000080000000D0000005F00520065006600350035003200330037003600340033000000 that the family lays the psychological, moral, and spiritual foundation in the overall development of the child. Structurally, family/homes is either broken or intact. A broken home in this context is one that is not structurally intact, as a result of divorce, separation, death of one of parent and illegitimacy. Psychological home conditions arise mainly from illegitimacy of children REF _Ref55237649 \r \h [5] 08D0C9EA79F9BACE118C8200AA004BA90B02000000080000000D0000005F00520065006600350035003200330037003600340039000000 , the label of adopted child, broken homes, divorce and parental deprivation. Such abnormal conditions of the home, are likely to have a detrimental effect on school performance of the child he asserts.

Life in a single parent family or broken home can be stressful for both the child and the parent. Such families are faced with challenges of inadequate financial resources (children defense find, 2004). As noted REF _Ref55237658 \r \h [6] 08D0C9EA79F9BACE118C8200AA004BA90B02000000080000000D0000005F00520065006600350035003200330037003600350038000000 , in order for self-control to be taught, a parent must be able to monitor their child’s behavior, recognize their inappropriate behavior as deviant, and punish them accordingly. The problem for single parent is they may not have the enough time to monitor their child’s behavior, and they may not have the means to discipline them. Many single-parent mothers are forced to work long hours and therefore allow their children to do a lot more without any interference. They are also not necessarily aware of their child’s misbehavior and their performance in school.

Academic performance is seen as the knowledge attained or skills, shown in the school subject. To indicate such achievement, test scores or marks are assigned by the teachers. It is the school evaluation of the classroom work on the basis of the grades awarded. Academic performance REF _Ref55237664 \r \h [7] 08D0C9EA79F9BACE118C8200AA004BA90B02000000080000000D0000005F00520065006600350035003200330037003600360034000000 is of two types, the positive and negative (poor) performance. Habits, family background, perseverance, attitudes, interest all these affect academic achievement in school. He concluded that if these variables are modified and attitude changed positively, then the level of individuals’ academic performance would improve.

The Abraham Maslow’s theory on hierarchy of needs was adopted for this study. It focuses on self-actualization of a person. Some characteristics of a self-actualized person include tolerance, welcoming uncertainty, acceptance of self and other, creativity, need for privacy, autonomy, genuine caring for others, sense of humor and directedness REF _Ref55237675 \r \h [8] 08D0C9EA79F9BACE118C8200AA004BA90B02000000080000000D0000005F00520065006600350035003200330037003600370035000000 . He divided human needs into five categories. The most basic category is the physiological needs. These include food, shelter, clothing and education. When pupils lack these basic needs, they cannot grow and their concentration is on their discomfort. If pupils are hurt by conflicts in the family, they may not acquire all the needs that they need. After the basic needs, a person yearns for safety needs. This is the need to feel secure. Pupils who witness their parents fighting all the time do not feel safe in that home. There is the fear that the parents might separate or even hurt them.

On other hand, the Attachment Theory REF _Ref55237684 \r \h [9] 08D0C9EA79F9BACE118C8200AA004BA90B02000000080000000D0000005F00520065006600350035003200330037003600380034000000 , child-adult relationships may be secure (close and trusting), resistant (conflicted and/or needy), avoidant (business like and emotionless or over bright) (, or disorganized (a mixture of both patterns of insecurity). The ideal pattern of attachment is conceived as a secure relationship in which a child trusts the adult caregiver to provide consistent, supportive care. Examples of secure attachments can include the following interactions: a child seeks and accepts comfort from the primary caregiver when he/she is upset or hurt, a child shows physical affection toward his/her primary caregiver, a child explores and undertakes new challenges in the company of the caregiver, a child asks for and uses help from the primary caregiver, a child checks in sometimes just visually with the primary caregiver when uncertain, and a child follows directions and suggestions from the primary caregiver REF _Ref55237693 \r \h [10] 08D0C9EA79F9BACE118C8200AA004BA90B02000000080000000D0000005F00520065006600350035003200330037003600390033000000 .

Furthermore, the Family Systems Theory is a theory REF _Ref55237702 \r \h [11] 08D0C9EA79F9BACE118C8200AA004BA90B02000000080000000D0000005F00520065006600350035003200330037003700300032000000 that suggests that individuals cannot be understood in isolation from one another, but rather as a part of their family, as the family is an emotional unit. Families are systems of interconnected and interdependent individuals, none of whom can be understood in isolation from the system.

Children of broken families generally are more likely to be resource deprived REF _Ref55237715 \r \h [12] 08D0C9EA79F9BACE118C8200AA004BA90B02000000080000000D0000005F00520065006600350035003200330037003700310035000000 , especially in female-headed households REF _Ref55237723 \r \h [13] 08D0C9EA79F9BACE118C8200AA004BA90B02000000080000000D0000005F00520065006600350035003200330037003700320033000000 , and receive less intense and less consistent monitoring, all of which have been associated to mental development and academic success of a child REF _Ref55237730 \r \h [14] 08D0C9EA79F9BACE118C8200AA004BA90B02000000080000000D0000005F00520065006600350035003200330037003700330030000000 .

With the aforementioned scenario above, the researcher prompt to conduct this study on the influence of broken home on the behavior and academic performance of students in order to create an action plan to help the pupils/learners find success and overcome unpleasant experiences.

Relationship between the profile and behavioral development of the pupil-respondents living in a broken family. The result shown that there is no significant relationship between the behavioral development and profile of the pupil-respondents living in a broken family in terms of age, sex, grade level, number of siblings, and persons stay with since the corresponding significant values of 0.135, 0.408, 0.127, 0.538, and 0.556 are greater than 0.05 level of significance. Thus, this study accepts the null hypothesis. This implies that the respondents’ age, sex, grade level, number of siblings, and persons stay with did not vary to their behavioral development, however the pupil-respondents were doing the things expected from them such as mutual understanding and commitment, and builds attachment with people especially in school.

Table 4: Relationship Between the Profile and Behavioral Development of the Pupil-Respondents Living in a Broken Family N = 300

Relationship between behavioral development and academic success of the pupil-respondents living in a broken family. The result revealed that there was a significant relationship between the behavioral development and academic success of the pupil-respondents living in a broken family since the computed correlation value of 0.154 with a significant value of 0.008 is lesser than 0.05 level of significance. Thus, the null hypothesis was rejected. This denotes that academic success of the pupils depends on their behavior development. Being with a broken family is not structurally intact, as a result of divorce, separation, death of one of parent and illegitimacy but they have an equal opportunity and chance to achieve success in school depending on how much work they will perform on it.

The closure of Philippine schools has greatly affected the quality of instruction and learning during the pandemic. This study aimed to delve into the lived experiences of learners with insignificant progress from broken homes during the implementation of distance learning modalities. To materialize such a purpose, the researchers employed the phenomenological method of study. Fourteen student participants from broken homes were purposively selected to participate in an in-depth interview. The themes were identified using the NVIVO Application. The result shows that these groups of learners encountered several challenges such as slow internet connection, unfinished learning tasks, and deafening noise. These students have also made some adjustments which include doing household chores, changes in sleeping patterns, and seeking help from peers. More so, as a support to their children, the parents/homes assist such as financial and material support. It is also reported that parents/guardians give advice and help their children in accomplishing learning tasks. In conclusion, institutional policies from the government needs to strengthen the collaboration among education stakeholders to further assist these groups of learners. Subsequently, proposed remediation plan was made.

The researchers were interested to know how does out-of-school youth (OSY) utilized their life experiences in this time of the pandemic. This study aimed to investigate the problems or reasons that these OSY experienced at the time of the pandemic that pushed them to drop out of school under the guidance and concept of Family Socialization theory. It is a phenomenology study that tells the narratives and perspectives of 8 out-of-school youth in Culion, Palawan. The bases for extracting the themes are the research questions that center on their reasons for not attending school. This paper showcases how these reasons of them influence their decisions on dropping out. Furthermore, it was found that some respondents’ reasons are related to financial issue. However, most of the participants emphasized that it was because of the feeling of fear that the Covid-19 pandemic had caused them.

—In this paper, we begin to outline how feminist theory may be productively applied to information visualization research and practice. Other technology-and design-oriented fields such as Science and Technology Studies, Human-Computer Interaction, Digital Humanities, and Geography/GIS have begun to incorporate feminist principles into their research. Feminism is not (just) about women, but rather draws our attention to questions of epistemology – who is included in dominant ways of producing and communicating knowledge and whose perspectives are marginalized. We describe potential applications of feminist theory to influence the information design process as well as to shape the outputs from that process.
