Disintegration of family
Migration process of today brings mainly to the crisis of the institution of the family that is why the family pays the bitterest price for poverty and social loneliness.
It is necessary to make a preface which comes from the historical past of Moldova: the family experienced a dim period in the time when the state was being formed, in connection with which new generation have not received effective experience or model as far as the question of family unity are concerned, as well as the question of upbringing, respect to the parents, defence of human life. A lot of leaders in the spheres of economics and politics, as well as simple citizens, including the youth, grew up in incomplete families. The present-day society and the institute of family in particular, pay for that historic-political vacuum.
Most often, a figure inside the family, living far from home, is a woman, a mother. The absence of a woman is inevitably a strong element of dissociation, which brings to slowing down child upbringing and to the lack of supervision for the rest part of nuclear family; it also brings to the growth of alcoholism.
Failure to return a woman to the family or complete alienation of children or a parent left in Moldova is also observed.
It is interesting to read a report of a Moldavian woman, who, for a long time, has been living in one of the European countries, who writes to the lawyer claming that she does not recognize a boy whom she abandoned at the time of departure, as her child.
The only figure that could perform a linking role inside the family and that always remains weak, is an elder relative, either a grandfather or a grandmother, to whom a difficult role of upbringing children is committed, and who is often in the state of argument with younger generation. The younger generation is very often exposed to temptation of getting consumer sendings, which come from a parent in emigration, they have a great demand for independence and for the desire to follow the emigrated parent; they are tempted by material well-being which comes to the family. Thus, the family faces some situations which do not let it perform a real upbringing role.
