Summary/Abstract: The aim of the study is to draw attention to the importance of sensitive, coherent and insightful communication between a child and an adult. Effective communication seems to be particularly important in the times of crises of the 21st century, especially in the face of a pandemic during which concepts from the field of social sciences, such as psychological well-being or interpersonal relations, gained a new dimension. The author analyzes the literature on the subject on key concepts, presents and discusses the situations observed in the everyday life of children, concerning the communication situations between children and their adult carers during the pandemic. The author comes to the conclusion that interpersonal communication in the family is the foundation of the bonds established in it, determines the sense of psychological and social well-being, and determines the harmonious development of a child. In connection with the above, in the author’s opinion, it should be borne in mind that a responsible and sensitive observer – an adult guardian – must constantly watch over the child’s sense of the broadly understood well-being, creating conditions for the child to feel autonomy, agency, fulfilment and high self-esteem.
