Equal opportunity and fair access to quality education for children/pupils/students should be among the basic pillars of human rights. One of the major influences, and not only in pedagogical, social, economic and cultural terms, is the family. It influences the outcomes of pupils’ school success, the educational process and, last but not least, the life and career track too. Another of the main pillars that undeniably influence the upbringing, education and whole development of an individual is the educational institution. Considerations of social change have to include changes within the family environment. One such critical change is the very relationships between parents and children when moments arise where a parent does not, for example, know how their child spends their free time, what are the child’s interests and who her/his friends are. The pace of society stemming from a stressful environment that is hectic, and ethically and morally, in certain areas, socially unanchored, and felt not only by the parents themselves also increases the gap in family relationships. The family is more isolated from the world around them, and an increasing number of parents are unable to handle the child-raising process and attempt to shift certain areas of child-raising and responsibility to various institutions and specialists. The expert article reflects on the topic of the importance of the cooperation of various actors, who can contribute to the successful educational process of a child thanks to mutual cooperation, listening, reflection or engagement.
