EMOTIONAL INTERACTION WITHIN A FAMILY AND TAKING OF IT INTO ACCOUNT IN THE SOCIAL WORK`S PROFESSION

Abstract

The article analyzes scientific and theoretical literature of the problem of emotional interaction of the child with parents, which is important in the work of a social worker with different types of families. Our goal is to describe the content of the problem of family relationships and the upbringing of the child and study the microclimate of the family of children of junior school age in the work of a social worker. To study this phenomenon, we used a projective test. A detailed analysis of the indicators of intra-family relations was conducted: favorable family situation, anxiety and conflict, inferiority and hostility of the family. The obtained indicators give an opportunity to assess the extent of the child’s dissatisfaction with family relationships, which causes inadequate changes of his behavior. Such parents perceive their child negatively, as not fit and unsuccessful. It seems to them that a child will not succeed in life because of his poor ability and inability to control his emotions. Also, in the minority of respondents, a positive psychological climate of the family was found, which ensures the formation of positive arbitrariness of emotional regulation, behavior patterns and adaptation process in early school-age children. The main results of the research are described: in the majority of children there is a tendency towards negative social and psychological climate in the family. In a small number of children, the development of deviant behavior can be observed, therefore, in this case, the social worker needs assistance not only to the child but also to the parents. The obtained indicators reflect the system of complex stereotypes of family relationships that lay the foundations of the outlook and influence the emotional and personal development of a younger student.
