FAMILY AS THE FOUNDATION OF COMMUNITY SEFETY AND SECURITY

Vzporedno z družbenimi spremembami, z novimi socialnimi in ekonomskimi ureditvami, se spreminja tudi družina. Klasično družino vedno bolj izpodrivajo nove oblike družinske skupnosti. V njih se nove vloge starševstva postopoma spreminjajo, preoblikujejo in izpodrivajo pretekle poglede o organiziranosti, velikosti, oblikovanju ter vzgoji. Poleg družine se spreminja tudi odnos družbe do družine. Družina je usodno povezana in soodvisna od socialnih, ekonomskih ter kulturnih zakonitosti, v katerih deluje. Znotraj družine pa so poleg zunanjih dejavnikov ravno tako usodna dogajanja in dejanja družinskih članov, ki s svojim izpolnjevanjem ali neizpolnjevanjem družinskih nalog določajo družinsko funkcionalnost. Družine izpolnjujejo družinske naloge različno uspešno. Družine, ki so pri svojem delovanju uspešnejše, se označuje kot funkcionalne družine, tiste, ki so pa pri svojem opravljanju nalog manj uspešne, se označuje kot manj funkcionalne ali nefunkcionalne. Med dejavnike, ki vplivajo na temelje družinske funkcionalnosti, se prištevajo predvsem vplivi vzgojnih stilov, načini ter uporaba veščin komunikacije, izgradnja kvalitetnih medsebojnih odnosov, načini reševanja težav, zmožnost prilagajanja, ravnanje s čustvi, izgradnja avtonomnosti ter zmožnost prilagajanja družinskemu ciklusu. Na uspešnost celostnega delovanja družinske skupnosti ravno tako vplivajo različne interpretacije ter doseganja varnosti. Družine s svojimi člani različno dojemajo prisotnost dejavnikov ogrožanja ter nevarnost. Pojavljajo se različni pogledi in pojmovanja o funkcionalnosti medsebojnih odnosov, komunikaciji ter različna dojemanja nalog, s katerimi se člani soočajo. Družinsko funkcionalnost opredeljuje tudi uspešnost soočenja družin ter njenih članov z izzivi in zahtevami sodobne družbe. Ko nastopijo zdravstvene težave, družinsko nasilje, prestopništvo ali npr. nove oblike starševstva, družine z njenimi člani potrebujejo tista ključna znanja, lastnosti in zmožnosti, ki pripomorejo k ustreznemu soočenju ter razreševanju tovrstne problematike.Parallel to the the social changes, new social and economic order, the family is also changing. Classic family is superseded by new forms of the family units where new parenting roles are gradually changing, transforming and displacing the historical views of the structure, size, forms and education.

In addition to external factors, just as fatal are events and actions of family members with their performance or non-performance of family tasks which determine family functioning. Families meet their duties by varying degrees of success. Families that are successful in their funciton, are referred to as functional familyless effective at their task performance, are referred to as less-functional or non-functional. The factors that affect the foundations of family functionality are influence of parenting stylesmethods and application of communication skillsbuilding of quality interpersonal relationships, ways of problem solving, ability to adapt, dealing with emotions, building autonomy and the ability to adapt to the family cycle. The success of the overall operation of the family unit is also affectted by different interpretations and achieving of security. Families and its members differently perceive the presence of threat and danger. Different views and conceps appear about the functionality of interpersonal relations, communication and different perceptions of the tasks which the members face. Family functionality is also defined by the performance of families and its members facing the challenges of the requirements of modern society. When occur health problems, domestic violence, delinquency or i.e. new forms of parenthood, family and its members need the key skills, qualities and abilities that contribute to the proper confrontation and resolving such problems
