“…As Potoč{rov{ (2008) states, "parents' time spent together with their children is decreasing, but parents' involvement outside the family, especially in employment, is increasing, due to the everincreasing demands for high workloads and demands on the length of working hours‚(p. 76). Similarly, Kraus et al (2020) say that work is a "catalyst‚ of family life. Parents are exhausted, overloaded, have a permanent fear of losing their jobs, and therefore work even in the time reserved for the family.…”

“…Although the time parents and children spend together should be enriching, many people consider it exhausting. The causes are disproportions in the amount of free time, excessive work and school responsibilities, the information explosion and negative aspects of technological progress, unhealthy lifestyles associated with constant stress and rush, and others (Kraus et al, 2020).…”

This paper presents research focused on investigating contemporary parents and selected aspects of their influence on children's leisure time, emphasizing how and to what extent parents organize their children's leisure time. Parents from different regions of Slovakia participated in the research, and we processed the results using descriptive statistics. For comparison, we used the Student T-test, Mann-Whitney Test (for comparing two groups), and Kruskal-Wallis Test (for comparing three or more groups). The research showed that respondents judge current parenting as different and significantly more challenging compared to the past. They perceive differences in the sphere of leisure time of families, especially in the fact that parents give fewer responsibilities to children than the previous generation of parents. The research also shows that the problem of contemporary families is the absence of time spent together by parents and children, the absence of family communication, and the high level of organization of children's leisure time by parents. The authors point out that parents in a postmodern society have to deal with the difficulties of ensuring the family's economic stability, which is why two-career marriages are a reality in contemporary families. It has been proven that today's parents are busier with work and are more engaged outside the family, as a result of which they spend less time with their children, which negatively affects their upbringing, there is a lack of quality family communication, and children feel lonely and deprived of parental attention. It was also found that in the modern family, students are involved in housework much less than in the past, so they mostly have no experience of work in this aspect. It is emphasized that the compensation of parental influence with other means of education - media, technology (smartphones, tablets, computers), and the virtual world (social networks) is alarming. The decline in the development of reading interests in the family is outlined, and the tendency of parents to replace the joint reading of children's books with modern technologies is revealed.

“…The family lifestyle, a multi-dimensional category subject to transformations and changes, includes several aspects: primarily the structure of activities by which family members satisfy their needs, a system of relationships throughout one's lifetime, and a hierarchy of values. (Kraus et al 2020) Being "the nucleus of a culture universally" (Saleem et al 2015, 29), family is the core institution responsible for the transmission of fundamental values, collectivist and individualist values, work-related values, personal values, patterns of behavior, and ethical norms.…”

Filozofijas un socioloģijas institūts DAŽĀDIE VĒRTĪBU ASPEKTI MŪSDIENU KONTEKSTĀŽurnāla "Reliģiski-filozofiski raksti" XXXIII laidiens veltīts Latvijas sabiedrības vērtību analīzei salīdzinošā perspektīvā. Ņemot vērā vērtību jēdziena daudzdimensionālo raksturu, vērtību apraksts, analīze un klasifikācija visos laikos ir izraisījusi diskusijas, strīdus un pat konfliktus. Daudzo vērtības jēdziena aspektu apzināšanai, kā norāda Latvijas Universitātes profesore, akadēmiķe Maija Kūle, nepieciešamas gan kultūras vēstures un plaša spektra humanitārās zināšanas, gan dialogs sociālajā telpā, gan sensus communis -kopējais viedoklis. Filozofu vidē ir sastopama izpratne, ka vērtības ir ontoloģiski pastāvošas un nav tieši atkarīgas no novērtējuma, tās nevar nedz iznīcināt, nedz atcelt, lai gan ar audzināšanas un mediju palīdzību var ietekmēt vērtīborientāciju (Kūle 2016).Sociālajās zinātnēs vērtības tiek definētas kā vispārīgi mērķi, ko indivīds uzskata par sev svarīgiem un kas nosaka viņa attieksmes un uzvedību (Rokeach 1973;. Tiek izšķirtas personiskās jeb individuālās vērtības un ar sociālo piederību saistītās vērtības. Pētnieki visā pasaulē ir pierādījuši, ka gan indivīdu personiskās vērtības, gan ar sociālo piederību saistītās vērtības ietekmē indivīdu politisko uzvedību, rīcību un izvēli vēlēšanās. Valdības lēmumus, likumu izstrādi, grupu attiecības un pilsonisko uzvedību nosaka vērtības, jo tās ietver vēlmes, uzskatus, morāles kodeksus, kas nosaka indivīda uzvedību sabiedrībā.
