Abstract
This article assesses learners with broken family orientation on its effect on the participants’ learning motivation, confidence, and self-image. The interactions and relationships within a family are of utmost importance in influencing the development and behavior of individuals and societies. Gaining insight into the ways in which family members interact and the underlying dynamics that control their relationships is crucial for fostering positive family dynamics and general well-being. Qualitative data collection was done to document the participant's motivation, self-image, and sense of self with a broken family orientation. The researchers gathered information from twenty (20) students from broken families in an undisclosed district in Zamboanga City, particularly from Labuan district through one-on-one behavioral interviews using purposive sampling. The interview assisted in evaluating the students' performance and behavior in particular contexts, both in the past and the present. There were ten (10) male participants and ten (10) female individuals. The students' identities were kept secret in order to protect both their personal information and their family background. The majority of the individuals involved are under the supervision of their grandparents and aunts; one of them revealed that the main cause of their parents' divorce was an extramarital affair. Some of them have financial difficulties, while others suffer in relationships. These affect students' confidence, motivation, and sense of self-worth, which negatively affects their academic achievement. For this reason, students who identify as coming from broken homes are periodically invited to engage in extracurricular activities offered by the school and get spiritual counseling in the guidance office. Results also showed that intimate pleasant interactions between teachers and students are beneficial for counseling students to help them restore motivation, self-worth, and confidence.
