The family is the basis of life, development and formation of the first skills, ideas of young people about the world around them. It is on the family that depends not only on the standard of living, education and intelligence of the child, but also on his further existence.
The family affects all spheres of the child's life, it is thanks to her that a person grows up and becomes either a prosperous and successful citizen of his country, or remains dissatisfied with his life. The family lays in a person the concept of spiritual values, morality, what is most important in life and what should be strived for. It is she who forms the concept of beauty in a person, teaches him love and care.
Family influence
At all times, it was the family that was a stronghold for a person, the place where he could feel himself, be protected, share joy with his family. The family is a rather closed part of society, being born, a child in the first years of life usually does not go beyond the boundaries of this world. And everything that the kid learns in the family stays with him for the rest of his life, because the knowledge and concepts inherent in his brain until the age of 3, for the most part, determine his future essence. So, faced with violence and cruelty, a child will perceive this very behavior of adults as normal, perhaps it would not even occur to him to complain about his parents, because he does not know any other attitude. Growing up, such a child becomes secretive, often motives of inner fear and caution are present in his behavior. But he can grow up and turn into a tyrant himself, who will torment his children and loved ones.
On the other hand, if a child saw only a positive attitude, support, respect from elders in the behavior of his parents, education not by force, but in a word, such a child will bring an understanding of how to treat other people, with his loved ones into adulthood. The child copies the behavior and attitudes of adults, in infancy and young age this happens subconsciously, and in older children already quite consciously follow the habits that they were taught in the family. Therefore, at the behavioral level, family education provides the beginnings of a child's future relationship to the world.
Family replacement
What happens to a child when he has no family? Then this concept does not disappear anywhere, it is just that others begin to act as family relations - between educators and pupils of an orphanage, between members of a foster family or street friends. In any case, a person is trying to find a replacement for the family, to feel a close relationship with at least someone. And then this person or group will form the personality of the child, influence his knowledge, upbringing, ability to build relationships with the world. It goes without saying that such a relationship can never be full-fledged: neither educators in an orphanage, nor an incomplete family, let alone friends, can replace the value and closeness of family relationships to a person. Therefore, in the psyche of such children, violations are usually traced: the child becomes more withdrawn, stubborn, cruel, or sometimes has a strange idea of morality and ethics.
