Abstract
The article reveals the factors that negatively affect the worldview of modern youth, leveling family values and significantly reducing the popularity of the family lifestyle among the younger generation, including boys and girls brought up in Orthodox families, whose parents are not always able to instill in their children their Christian vision of the family, to form competent ideological assessments of the role of men and women in the family. An assessment of the importance of the family from the position of representatives of the Orthodox Church is given, it is shown that in the context of the educational mission of the Russian Orthodox Church, one of the directions is to strengthen the missionary orientation of parish life in the field of youth upbringing. It is possible to make up for the loss of ideas about the family way of life among young people by developing their Christian worldview and forming ideas about the family way of life in accordance with Christian commandments. At the same time, programs of educational work among young people implemented by parishes are becoming important. Based on the study of family values among high school students, it was revealed that many students cannot name the ways of showing love in the family, their attitude towards parents is consumerist, many have erroneous ideas about family roles, and the culture of family life is not a value. In order to form in high school students the ideas of an Orthodox family lifestyle, the program consisting of creative workshops with students and joint meetings with students and their parents has been implemented.
