Importance of Family in Fulfilling Each Members Needs

Maslow’s Application on Family Each Members Needs

1. WHAT ARE THE NEEDS OF EACH PERSON ACCORDING TO

MASLOW’S.
There are some needs that are cited from the hierarchy of need of Abraham
Maslow. It was form as a pyramid to clearly classified the basic need and
higher need of every person. According to Maslow people are more often
satisfied from their basic need before they want to feel the higher need.
First from the diagram as shown in the hierarchy of need is survival are the
important need of a person it includes having enough energy , water clothes
and shelter. Second from the list is safety or being safe and secure from the
danger. Third is love and belonging receiving love and affection as being
accepted by family , friend and family. Second to the last is Esteem as having
confidence in oneself. Lastly the self actualization as realizing one’s potential
through personal growth and developing one’s talent.
2. Give example for each needs.
One of the example in survival from hierarchy of needs is food, clothes shelter
and clothing. Law and order, health , security and shelter are some of the
example of need in Safety. Example of Love and belonging is intimacy , trust ,
giving affection and acceptance. Some example of Esteem are athletic or team
participation, personal hobbies academic accomplishment. Finding humor in a
given situation are example of Self actualization.
3. What could be the implication of Maslow Hierarchy of need in the needs
in the daily life?
It is important as a human beings to achieve every part of the hierarchy
because it will help to develop its own personalities. And also on the first part
of the hierarchy it includes clothes and food to achieved the survival part. For
example is someone are naked in public he will not gain self esteem because of
his situation. It is important to achieve the first part of the hierarchy before
proceeding to the fourth part. In short you cannot skip on the first part.

4. Do you have the same problems encountered at home?
Until now I am still encountering the survival part , although we eat regularly
and have clothes but there are some times that I was ashamed of myself
because of the clothes I used especially when my shirt was ripped in public.
And also self-actualization was the crucial part problem I encountered at home
especially in this pandemic. The impact of covid19 pandemic from me hits my
self-actualization because in this past year we experienced a lot of things that
we cannot do because of we may be infected if we go outside.
5. As a member of family, what can you do in order to help each members
to fully realize their potentials.
As a student I can help my family member to fully realize their potentials by
the way expressing them the love and belongingness because it will help a lot
to boost their confidence and self esteem. Showing them that they are part of
the family may help.

Part ll. Family Cycle

Answer the following question:

1. What are the different stages in family cycle ?
The different stages in family cycle are newly married, early parenthood, later
parenthood , empty nest and retirement.
2. Why do think it is called cycle?
One of the reason it is called cycle is because it may be repeated. When a
partner is a newly married they will have a chance to blessed with a child and
that child when the times goes on and hi will repeat that cycle.
3. In your family, in what stage are you in?
In my family I was on the part that I am in empty-nest because all of my
siblings are having their own family and some are finding their career in life.
4. Although the model was based on American family life, do you think we
also share the same life cycle?
No, in my own point of view Filipinos has a different cycle from the American
family life because some of Filipino now a days has a increasing number of
people who get pregnant at the young age and they some don’t have a chance
to build a strong foundation for their own family , some are leading to break
up.
5. If you are to add or modify some of the stages in order to fit a Filipino
family, what would be and why?
If I were given a chance to add some stages to in the Filipino family is to have a
strong foundation before having a family because nowadays are now facing
broken family it is because some instances is they are not ready to engage in a
relationship and a weak foundation may affect the family.
