Summary/Abstract: Parental authority is given by nature, kinship, and preserved or weakened during the period of the procreation family. The aim of this article is, on the one hand, to analyse the importance of parental authority for children’s development, and on the other hand, to analyse the functioning of various elements of life and intra-family threats. Parents in the first stages of a child’s development are the first and most important significant persons who have an impact on their cognitive, emotional and axiological spheres. During school and adolescence, parental authority may develop through emotional ties in the family, attitudes that accept the home atmosphere, a democratic parenting style and a culture of parental behaviour. Children functioning in families in which high, real parental authority is displayed, adopt social values and norms. They identify with the personal characteristics of their father and mother to a greater extent.
