Summary/Abstract: The term “exclusion” reflects properly the situation of children who are not accepted by their peers. This category of children includes children whose peers don’t allow them to play important roles or take up tasks in the group and openly show antipathy towards them. Also children who experience indifference from the group and are neglected in plays and other forms of team activity of the group belong to this category. The most common reason for exclusion of children is their incorrect functioning in relations with other people. The primary cause of which is the improper care and education in the family. This article gives a short characteristic of excluded children and describes examples of early prevention targeting parents whose children are in early childhood. The aim of this prevention is to educate parents belonging to the risk group, that is these parents who might have or have serious problems in fulfilling the parental role.
