Summary/Abstract: According to the contemporary sciences, a mature family that consists of a mother and a father is the best environment for children upbringing. The goal of the process is to shape mature and responsible individuals who are open to others and take part in the social life of the community they live in. To achieve this goal other social institutions should facilitate the family and support parents in the difficult process of raising their children. One such institution is the Church. In her vision of a human being and human development, the Church claims that family environment is fundamental in the early stages of life; therefore, she put a special emphasis on the role of family in children upbringing.
