CAUSES AND CONSEQUENCES OF VIOLENCE IN THE CONTEMPORARY FAMILY

Summary/Abstract: The paper discusses the causes and consequences of violence in the contemporary family. It is based on the assumption that the globalization of modern society affects the transformation of the family. Paper analyses the findings of numerous researches that indicate that the classic structure, functions and importance of the modern family have changed. Due to the fast pace of life, the influence of modern technologies and technology (computers, mobile phones, television) there has been a degradation and crisis of the family. Under the influence of modern conditions, more and more family problems arise. To a large extent, poverty is expressed, which has a negative effect, because the family is not able to be a safe haven for its members, to satisfy their needs, desires and ambitions. Poverty hinders healthy, complete and harmonious personality development, which is necessary for mental health, proper physical development and social functioning. Since society is in crisis, and parents encourage the improvement - education of children, so the function of the family is largely taken over by institutions. Research indicates that ambitious and self-sacrificing parents expect adequate feedback and continuous successful progress of their children. Although, this type of encouraging is positive for the family on the one hand, on the other hand there are more and more problems like violence. Families are threatened by violence within the family, but also in the environment - society, peers, school, social networks. Domestic violence is present between parents, parents and children (by parents towards children and children towards parents). By summarizing the findings of recent relevant research, the paper systematizes the causes and consequences of violence in the modern family.
