A man grows formed by his family, social environment, all the society. On the personality which will be educated during the first year of a child’s life the quality of his future life will depend. The object of investigation has been the self-evaluation tie of the children attending pre-school nurturing institutions and their parents. The aim of this investigation has been to establish the parent and children self-evaluation tie and the major aims have been to investigate the self evaluation of the children attending pre-school nurturing institutions in various aspects; to investigate parent self-evaluation and their attitude towards their children self-evaluation; to investigate the value orientations of the parents; to investigate how various aspects of self-evaluation of children are reflected in children drawings in which they depict their families. During the investigation three hypotheses have been examined: 1) the self evaluation of the girls and boys of the same age is equal; 2) family composition has an influence on child self-evaluation; 3) parent material state, education, value orientations have influence on the child self-evaluation. In the first chapter of the work various attitudes towards family, family influence on the formation of the child personality, definitions of self-evaluation and personality described in scientific literature have been analyzed. In the second chapter the investigation of parent and children self-evaluation tie has been described. The investigation was performed by presenting close type questionnaires to the charges of three Kaunas kindergartens and their parents. The children who participated in the investigation were asked to draw their families and the analysis of the family drawing was performed. Totally 161 children and 161 adult family member (mother or father) have participated in the investigation. The results of the investigation have denied the first hypotheses that the girls and boys of the same age value themselves equally. Comparing the differences between girls and boys it has been noticed that the girls much better than boys value themselves and they feel better in the kindergarten. The second hypotheses proved out: it has been established that the children growing in not full families value their relations with parents in the negative manner. The statement of the third hypotheses proved out: self-evaluation of children depends on the part of income devoted to their maintenance. An important consistent pattern has been established: the size of family income part devoted for the child maintenance is inversely proportionate to the child self-evaluation. |
