Abstract

The family is an essential and most important environment of upbringing, development and socialization of a child. In a correctly functioning family, the child is developing all dimensions of its humanity in the natural way as well as learning attitudes and social behaviours. the family reality is composed of many roles performed by its individual members, as well as functions of communal and social character. the persons forming a home community in order to accomplish their tasks, remain in mutual systems of complex interactions. a dialogue between parents and children in which the rights of every person are respected is a basis for the bringing up process in a family. effective communication is very important in the education process and is also a guarantee of proper fulfilling of basic individual and social functions.
