Abstract

Family is a natural environment which facilitates proper development of a child. This happens thanks to proper care of a child and satisfying its essential needs. Family has also vast influence on shaping child’s attitudes, its personality, beliefs and approach to life.
The aim of this article is to present the role, which parental attitudes play and their influence on shaping child’s attitudes. The notions of attitude, family, parental attitude, and personality are explained in the theoretical part. The most important functions of family are presented. The author of the article conducts a survey. The results of the survey showed that most parents don’t blame children for their misdeeds, but it often happens that adults throw negative emotions on their children, and this leads to the fact that children become victims of violence. The purpose of family upbringing is emphasized: the child should be able to take care of himself in the future, which was confirmed by 44 % of respondents. The author analyzes the erroneous views of parents that strict discipline, prohibitions, as well as excessive expectations will be the basis of a good education. The author emphasizes that such means of education lead to the negative consequences for a child development, to the appearance of neurotic symptoms in the children’s life. In the further part the typology of parental attitudes is presented, including the proper and improper ones. The consequences of these attitudes are described.
Methodological assumptions of own study are presented in the second part of the article. The aim and the object of the study are specified. The research problems are stated. Research hypotheses are put forward to face them. In the further part, the research sample is characterised and detailed analysis of obtained research results is made.
