The natural right and duty of parents in the rearing of the youth for civic efficiency and the development of moral character shall receive the aid and support of the government.

This is good in the constitution only, our government is not giving its own duty to protect its citizens, so most of us go outside the country to feed the family at home,  so the family as a basic social institution is not holding true.  Kids whose parents are OFW are turning to be spoiled and undisciplined.  You don´t wonder there are lots of drug addicts nowadays.
