Of particular interest is the analysis of the views of representatives of various generations from different countries, which will allowus to characterize the specifics of educational strategies in Russian families. The goal of the study:to identify the trends and specifics of the development of educational strategies in the families of a number of countries in the post-Soviet space in the context of the transformation of social relations and the institution of the family.
