Summary/Abstract: Parental engagement is an activity which brings many benefits to children and parents as well. Fatigue is a side effect of the involvement, in an extreme case it leads to exhaustion and parental burn out. The results of the research show that it is related to the individualism present in social life and the upbringing. The analysis of this phenomenon shows that both individualistic and collectivist approaches to education do not provide full development opportunities and do not prevent from the burnout. Therefore, it is necessary to re-evaluate the meaning of the community, both in the living and task-related dimension of its functioning. Building a family community and participating in social communities creates optimal conditions for the development of family members.
