FAQ: Do Filipinas put family before their husband? Family can be very important, but a healthy relationship still needs couple boundaries. The best approach is to discuss family involvement, privacy, and priorities before making long-term plans.

FAQ: Will I need to support her family financially? Sometimes financial support may be discussed, especially when there is a large income gap, but it should never be assumed or pressured. Agree on boundaries, amounts, emergencies, and what support would be sustainable.

FAQ: Why are children so important in Filipino culture? Children are often connected to family continuity, care, and mutual responsibility. Discuss values around children respectfully instead of treating them as financial security or making assumptions about every family.
