“…The danger of symbiotic relationships is that all behavioural manifestations of a partner are perceived as own, that is, the person automatically feels anger if someone criticizes his/her partner without even understanding the reasons for criticism. All requirements and offers of the partner are unconditionally fulfilled (because they are already perceived as own), even if they objectively harm the person (Epstein-Lubow et al, 2009;Nikolaev et al, 2016). Family openness.…”
The article highlights the problem of finding the causes of disharmonies in marital relations and the criteria for the normal functioning of a family system. Dysfunction or disturbances of family functioning are such features of family life that complicate or hinder execution of family functions. A dysfunctional family in a broad sense means a system determining distortions of personal development and, therefore, maladaptive, deviant behaviour or neurotic disorders at one or more of the family members. The aim of the study is to identify the causes of disharmony in marital relations and the criteria for normal functioning of a family as a system. The empirical part of this study was devoted to determining the causes of such disharmonies in marital relationships that subsequently led to divorce. The study was conducted during the family counselling of married men, women and married couples who were in the process of divorce. The next criteria for normal family functioning have been determined: respect for differences; sincerity in expressing thoughts and feelings; dynamic relationships; role sharing; observance of personal boundaries; family openness; emotional and spiritual intimacy.

“…On the one hand, studies note that self-destructive behavior in a crisis may be manifested by suicide [6], and behavioral and emotional disorders in children may reflect maladaptive family environment with situations of violence and alcohol abuse [7]. On the other hand, self-destructive behavior in adolescents in form of victimization is closely related to intensity and type of bullying in school [8].…”
People change their bodies because of many reasons over many thousand years. Tattoo, piercing, and other types of body modifications have found a new life now. In present-day societies, tattoos and piercing are associated with risky behavior, alcohol and drug use in adolescents. The purpose of the study is to study the psychological manifestations of body modification and self-destructive behavior in adolescents. 86 boys and girls aged 14 to 18 attending socio-rehab center were examined by Mini-Mult (SMOL) and SOP questionnaires. It was revealed that body modifications in them are accompanied by tendencies to the use of alcohol, soft drugs and other psychoactive substances and by tendencies to different types of aggressive and autoaggressive behaviour. Adolescents who have body modifications are emotionally more unstable.
“…A great attention should be paid to awkward ages when there are difficulties concerning a student's cognitive activity (Baranova et. al., 2017), when child-parent relationships become more significant (Sobkin et al, 2016), and when children's nervous and mental vulnerability increases (Nikolaev et al, 2016). Junior adolescent age also refers to an awkward age.…”
