Abstract
Parenthood is connected with conceiving the child by the husband and wife, the birth of the child and its upbringing. In contemporary times a new model of lone parenthood is imposed on people. Lone parenthood results in the absence of one of the parents in the process of upbringing of the child. Single-parcnt families consist only of the mother and the child or the father and the child. Lone parenthood leads to a situation in which all the duties connected with the child upbringing are shifted onto the lone parent who is taking care of the child. One of the most unfortunate results of such a situation is the heavy mental burden of the single parent, who is condemned by the society. Many threats in such a way of treating parenthood originated from the transformation of the political system. Familics experience the fear about the futurc of the children, and this results from the degradation of norms and values. Lone parenthood is being influeneed by the new social norms, discussions, films, television programs or books. Young people, unlike the previous generations, treat relationships among peers, falling in love and friendship, in a different way. They look at marriage and family as too heavy a burden. Young people have difficulties with taking decisions which will influence their whole lives. Most of them come from famiiies where the relationships between the members are distorted. the families which lack love, the sense of safety and tenderness. They, thereforc, doubt whether love exists, whether it can bring happiness and whether it is possible to lead a harmonious lifc in a marriage. Nevertheless, it is commonly believed that life in a marriage or in a family is the best environment to bring up children, and any other forms, different from these, pose an important problem for the society and impose a heavy burden on the state.
