 What is It

What is responsible parenthood?

As defined in the Directional Plan of POPCOM, Responsible Parenthood is

the will and ability of parents to provide the basic needs and support the goals of
each member of the family. It is a shared responsibility between the husband and
wife to plan and achieve the desired number, spacing, and timing of their children
according to their own family life objectives, taking into consideration the
psychological preparedness, health status, socio-cultural, and economic concerns.

Duties and Responsibilities of Parents

1. Provide physical care and love

• The duties and responsibilities of the parents start during the prenatal
stage. The physical, emotional and mental condition of children depend
on the quality of prenatal care they received.
2. Inculcate Discipline
• The parents should be role models in inculcating discipline in their
children.
3. Develop Social Competence
• The children should develop social competence in order to acquire the
ability to consider another person’s perspective concerning a situation
and learn from past experiences.
4. Provide Education
• It is the duty of parents to nurture their children’s education so that
they will acquire knowledge and develop skills and habits that will
guide the way they think and feel.
5. Train children to become good citizens
• Parent should serve as the role models in enhancing their children’s
social responsibility and commitment to contribute to the development
of their communities. The children should develop their ability to
uphold the law and promote peace and order in the community.
6. Teach children to be financially responsible
• Parent should provide opportunities for their children to develop their
ability to manage money and other assets in a manner that is
considered productive and in the best interest of the individual or
family.
7. Guide children to grow spiritually
• Parent should provide their children opportunities to develop and grow
their whole person by focusing on their spiritual life.
