Significance of Health-Related Laws in Safeguarding People’s Health
• For the children
Through family planning, the children get quality time and
attention from their parents and they are better taken care
of. The parents could meet the basic needs of the children,
which are food, clothing, and shelter. In addition, children
can receive the health care that they need. The parents can
provide them with a good education. More
importantly,children will be showered with love and will
receive proper attention from their parents.
• For the father
Family planning helps the father shoulder his
responsibility and enables him to give his children
equal attention. It also lightens the burden in
supporting his family as there are only a few to
support. It gives his family a better home, education,
and good future, thus, keeping the family happy and
contented.
• For the community
Family planning improves the economic and social status of the
community. It can provide a peaceful, orderly, and selfsustaining community with fewer problems, like juvenile
delinquency. The community will be a healthy place to live in
with more land, open spaces between houses, playground,
sanitation, and less pollution. Peace and order are of
paramount importance in every community.
The Subanen people are known as the aborigines of the Island of Mindanao, and are found
mostly in the northern, western and southern portions of the Zamboanga peninsula. They
were originally found along the river banks or "suba" but now reside in the mountains.
Education among these people was limited to instruction by the Thimuay head to a future
husband and wife regarding love, respect and treatment of each other, parents, and in-laws.
The tribe has no religion although it is believed that they had a holy book at one time. In
marriage, the parents of the man look for a woman he will marry and both sets of parents set
the wedding date. Polygamy and polyandry are practiced but separation is not allowed nor is
marrying nearest relatives. When a couple wants to have only 1 or 2 children the wife, after
giving birth, eats an herb called benayan. For birth spacing she eats 2 herbs, and if no more
children are desired she eats more. Another type of birth control is practiced by the midwife
who "manipulates" the woman after delivery. Various methods are practiced to predetermine
a child's sex. Pregnant women must abide by many regulations including placing a piece of
wood across her path before going in a doorway. It is considered a blessing to have more
daughters than sons because the father will be able to recover the dowry he paid for his wife.
There is a general belief that all human beings should marry
• For the country, and the world
With the rapid growth of population in the country and the
world, resources are being used more rapidly, health problems
also worsen as modern medicine is not able to keep pace with
the health crisis, population growth has been a source of
numerous economic problems. By observing family planning for
community, the use of resources like land, food, and fuel can
be reduced and sanitation control would be effective. There
would be fewer countries suffering from starvation brought
about by population explosion.
