The aim of the article is to present selected areas of social functioning of consecutive generations of young people who entered adulthood after 1990. I will be most interested in the relationship between a realm of objective social facts, represented by economic factors -especially concerning labour market, and the area of social relationship in the family and between young people comprising communication, spending time together and satisfaction with the relationship. I will try to prove the thesis that intergenerational relationships within a family are shaped completely differently from corresponding relationships in the public sphere. Going forward I would like to show that while in the family inside there is a progressive consensus, cooperation and rapprochement of generations of children and parents, in public sphere (primarily involving education, but politics as well) the issues of mutual communication, defining priorities and forms of discourse are to large extent a problematic area.
