Among others, deteriorating economic conditions, i.e. high unemployment rate, low salary, increase of both running and educational costs are the main problems that face contemporary families. Expansion of pathological phenomena e.g. alcoholism, drug addiction, violence within the family, and crime can lead to the breakdown of the family.
