COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS OF CHILD-PARENT RELATIONS IN FULL AND INCOMPLETE FAMILIES WITH PRESCHOOLERS

Abstract

Currently, the range of research related to the specifics of child-parent relations is constantly expanding and deepening, which, of course, is associated with an increasing understanding in society of the most important importance of the family as a social institution. Therefore, the study of the relationship between satisfaction with marriage and child-parent relations in families with older preschoolers remains an urgent topic for psychological and pedagogical research. The article presents the results of studying mothers of preschoolers to different aspects of family life using the PARI method (E.S. Schaefer and R.K. Bell). Full and incomplete families were examined. The authors identified the features and differences in the structure of child-parent relations in full and incomplete families. Also, there are differences in the structure of child-parent relations in families with preschoolers 3-5 years old and in families with preschoolers 6-7 years old. The data obtained make it possible to develop a system of trainings and programs for working with parents who have insufficiently optimal child-parent contact and to track changes in child-parent relations after psychological and pedagogical influence (trainings, seminars, master classes, personal consultations).
