Parental Attitudes and the Development of a Sense of Belonging to a Religious Community

Abstracts

EN

A sense of belonging to a religious community is an attitude that lies at the intersection of two sets of attitudes: the social and the religious. It is a participatory attitude, an "in" attitude, which manifests itself in identification with the religious community, participation in its activities, acceptance and realization of its norms and values, awareness of being an accepted and "wanted" member of the community. The origins of a sense of belonging are complex. The author concentrates on those conditioning factors that lie within the family, and in particular on parental attitudes, which are only indirectly linked with the sphere of so-called religious education. To discover the dependences between parents' attitudes to their children and the children's sense of belonging to a religious community the author conducted research among secondary school and university students. The subjects had a positive attitude towards religion, but differed in the intensity of their sense of belonging to the Church. The author searched for the factors conditioning the differences. The study of parental attitudes reveals that an intense sense of connection with a religious community is connected first of all with an accepting (loving) attitude of both parents, especially the mother, their greater activity and involvement in family life, and good organization, order, stability and consistency in their contacts with the child.
