Abstract

Family and parenthood are the cornerstones of society. The processes of modernization, overcoming ideology of liberalism and individualization have influenced on the change in value aspects and the emergence of various forms of family structure and parenthood. The characteristic of modern society is rejecting parenthood, lesser number of families with children, later childbirth and increasing number of single-parent families. New paradigm of childhood and the position of child in society define modern parenting as one of the fundamental, the most responsible, but also the most difficult social roles of individuals. Considering fast changes of modern world, overcoming technology, electronics and mass media, also the emphasis on the individual and the changing function of family – it appears to be contradictions and social risks of parenthood. The tasks of social politics are to focus attention on the harmonization of external work and parental roles, protection in the context of the global economic crisis and the establishment of gender equality which is rooted in traditional, patriarchal model of parenting.
