Abstract

In the article the questions, concerning realizations of the  Concept  of  Family  Policy,  formation  of  family-oriented  state  policy  aimed  at  strengthening  of  family  relations  traditions  are  considered.  Family  with  children,  propagation  of  responsible  parenting  and  healthy  life  style  are  paid  attention  to.  The  state  family  policy  is  developed and implemented as a kind of activity, in which  government  institutions,  employers,  noncommercial  organizations, and the citizens take part. In the article the  data of statistical research Matrimonial Reference Points  of Modern Society are analyzed. The research shows the  change  of  the  attitude  of  young  generation  to  marriage  and family institution. The fact that young generation does  not consider the fact of registration of the family relations  to  be  important  and  the  concept  of  “civil  marriage”  becomes  a  norm,  is  of  special  attention.  It  essentially  influences  increase  of  such  indicator  as  “extramerital  child”.  The  main  reason  of  civil  marriages increase,  as  the  research  shows,  is  absence  of  condemnation  of  the  society.  Therefore  the  guidelines  of  demographic  policy  development  defined  by  the  President  of  the  Russian  Federation  Putin  V.V.  in  the  annual  message  to  the  Federal  Assembly  should  change  the  relation  of  the  society  to  family  and  improve  demographic  situation  in  the  state.  The  measures  specified  in  the  Message  are  aimed at increase of the total birth rate
