Abstract:

The family is subjected to a variety of increasingly higher prescriptions coming from various institutional contexts, a phenomenon known as the deprivatization of the domestic environment. In this context, the paper presents a qualitative research, based on Grounded Theory, analysing the effects of deprivatization on parenting, on how it is defined, regulated and modelled in terms of respecting the ideology children’s rights as promoted by the Convention on the Rights of the Child. In this approach, our attention is focused on parent education programs in Romania, especially those in the rural areas, bearing in mind the magnitude of the impact of the new ideologies on the traditional Romanian family culture.
