Family for the child is the primary surroundings in which he lives, grows and develops. Family education, family composition and position of the child within the family are the pillars of development of the child's personality. The family not only provides the conditions for the development of the child, it actively develops social position of each of its members. Influence of the family in shaping a child's personality is based on mechanisms of interiorization, identification and formation of identity, unity consciousness and activities of child and family, as well as the significant adults (L. S. Vygotsky, A.N. Leontiev, M.I. Lisina, D.I. Feldstein, D.B. Elkonin, etc.). In the family is bringing the child to social values and roles.

Families’ values have an important role among the values of a culture of society. The value of the family, which belongs to a particular society, to create an overall picture of priorities and values characteristic of that society. The family is regarded as the repository of cultural values, families’ values and traditions that it in the spiritual, moral, professional, creative work enriches and passes the new generations.

Families’ values are formed by intellectual, physical, spiritual, moral, aesthetic, ethical, labour education kid. Forming of families’ values is closely connected with the upbringing of such qualities of the child's personality as goodwill, desire to do good deeds, tolerance for shortcomings and mistakes of others, the ability to forgive, philanthropy, respect, responsibility for their decision, honesty and truthfulness, fairness, the ability to see their weaknesses, recognize errors, sensitivity, compassion, responsibility, discipline, diligence, careful attitude to the work of another, conscience, shyness, ability to listen to the voice of conscience.

Structure of modern multigenerational family often includes dad, mum, grandmother, grandfather (sometimes grandparents, ancestors) and children. Adults are responsible for the creation of a favourable microclimate in the family and are an example of the behavior for the child. In today's young family values in relations are increasingly respect, acceptance, support, love, liberty, intolerance to the detriment of their interests, social prestige and economic prosperity. Grandparents considered families’ values mutual understanding, mutual respect, love, openness, honesty, decency, compassion, trust, warmth in family relationships. Family relationships, in turn, are regulated by the rules of morality and law, regulations, generally accepted in society. The older generation is the custodian of family traditions, moral and spiritual values and passes the experience for future generations.

The go-ahead study of families’ values in modern Belarusian family held in 2010, took part the Belarusian family. Each family includes parents, grandparents and their pre-school children 5 years of age. The respondents were invited 90 issues on the basis of the Scale of a family environment, designed to assess the social climate in the family (S.Y. Kupriyanov, 1985).

When analysing the data revealed that most families consider important in family relations expressiveness (E)-7.3 is the overall average relationship between family members. Grandparents and young parents preferred equally open to act and express their feelings. Poll results show a high level of cohesion (O) in the relations between family members of all generations-5.42 that stresses the importance of family values such as caring about each other, mutual support, sense of belonging to the family. With the lowest overall rate scale conflict (C-t)-3.9, which showed little expression of anger and aggression, or desire to avoid conflict situations and «smooth out sharp corners».

Analysis of the replies reflect a high rate of family management: control system (С-l)-6.08 replies. Ancestors and young parents, despite the age difference showed a high degree of subsidiarity family organization, rigidity of family rules and procedures, monitoring each other's family members. However, there is a difference in degree of importance for each individual family order and organization in structuring a family activity, financial planning, clarity and certainty of family rules and responsibilities – the average organization (O)-5.1.

Of particular interest are the indicators of personal growth of family members. In analysing the responses revealed that significant in the family is the focus on activities and sports (AS)-5.44. Note that figure because more often than young parents. Moral aspects (MA) more relevant for grandparents than for young parents-total-4.92. All families are different indicators of achievement orientation (OA)-4.72 is the degree to which individual activities attached to the nature of the achievements and competition. Low overall intellectual-cultural orientation (ICO)-3.96, indicating the varying degrees of activity of members of the family in the social, intellectual, cultural and political spheres of activity. The lowest level of independence (I)-3.86, indicating little willingness, as parents, and young parents to assertion, autonomy in considering problems and decisions.

A comparison of scale makes it possible to identify values that affect family relationships. Analysis of mismatch response enables family members to see, than their similarities, differences and complementarities. The analysis results showed that in each and every Belarusian family have their families’ values and traditions. However, the opinion of the progenitors of the values of family relations in most cases coincides with the opinion of young parents.

Thus, the relationship between generations is the unity of views on the family values that are passed from generation to generation, including from grandparents to grandchildren. The older generation in the family is the link between past, present and future families.
