Summary/Abstract: The article is an attempt to answer questions related to youth plans regarding marriage and the family: What is the concept of a future family for youth?; Will the youth intend to get married in the future ?; Do young people plan to have children? If so, how much? If not, why?; How do young people plan to raise their children? The research (by means of a diagnostic survey) was carried out in the Mazowieckie voivodship in 2013. The study was attended by 100 high school students, including 70 girls and 30 boys from 16 to 19 years old. The main goal of the research was to show the vision of the future family life of young people. On their basis, it can be concluded that the majority of young people would like to start a traditional family. Respondents choose a legally regulated form of family life based on a marriage, between two loving people, who mostly want to have two children, for whom they want to be primarily an authority, a friend, but also a guardian of norms. They want to raise their children consistently, avoiding corporal punishment.
