Summary/Abstract: The present paper presents a reflection on the existential situation of Polish children. Pathology affecting various spheres of social life caused in effect of transformation processes in the political system in conjunction with economic and social changes leaves a stamp on the life of both family and children. “Serious” pathological phenomena in Poland after 1989 comprise: homelessness, begging, alcoholism and theft, and they give rise to conflicts with the law (also among the youngest members of the society). Due to the emergence of dysfunctional families and families endangered by demoralization, there appeared new phenomena such as maladjustment, social orphanhood and other risks associated with inadequate care of children and youth.
