DZIECKO WE WSPÓŁCZESNYM SPOŁECZEŃSTWIE POLSKIM

Abstrakt

It is a truism to say that societies differ from each other. Degree of variability depends on the degree of their socio-economic development, traditions, culture ... In the context of the differences between the socie- ties, the main differences are: in the forms of family life, its structure and functions. Although the family is still the basic unit of social life, it is the social position of its members that is changing. Such a change is clearly vi- sible in a social position of the child. The Polish society, as other societies, is the result of several factors: socio-economic, ideological, cultural, and also, and perhaps above all, the specific circumstances of individual fami- lies. For this reason, the situation of the child in a society, and thus in the Polish society, is diverse: positive in a functional family, negative in dys- functional one, and usually dramatic in a pathological family. Unsolved problem of our times is discrimination against unborn chil- dren who are sometimes denied the right to life. Abortion is the case. Abor- tion is the highest form of injustice. If today in many countries of the world, the death penalty for criminals is being abolished, so it is heard to under- stand the legalization of abortion - deprivation of life of those who are in no way came into conflict with the law. The legalization of abortion is a sign of the decadence of Western culture and a sign of moral collapse.
