One of the types of family relations is a system of various feelings, ideas, assessments, behavioral reactions and stereotypes of parents and children in relation to each other. Child-parent relations differ in the nature of emotional relations; motives for the birth of a child and motives for his upbringing; educational attitudes; images of parenthood and types of family upbringing. There are emotional, cognitive and behavioral components of child-parent relations:
1) emotional component – the prevailing emotional background of interaction between parent and child, emotional assessment by the parent of himself and the image of his child;
2) cognitive component – the ideas of the parent and the child about what the child-parent relationship should be, what are their manifestations and ways of expression;
3) behavioral component – specific actions, reactions and deeds of parents and children.
