Abstract

This study focused on exploring the values system among the taal families of San Jose City, Nueva Ecija Philippines. Taal families refer to the families who have been considered “natives†in the community. The study was under the qualitative case study approach and used a semi-structured in-depth interview to gather. The study used purposive sampling and gathered data from the nine (9) heads of the family of the selected taal families based on the criteria identified in this study. Three themes related to the convergence of values emerged. These include the evolution of the values system, sharing of cultures together with the community, and creating a lasting family legacy: The persistence of traditional values system in this study. This implies that instead of creating and adopting a new values system that will fit our environment today, respondents simply adopted the way of practicing traditional values in the kind of society we have today by practicing it in a new way. Major findings reveal that the values system did not change, it just evolved only to respond to the modernity of our society today so that their children will be able to adopt it easily in which the traditional way of practicing family values just converged to the kind of society we have today.
