Summary/Abstract: The subject of this article is the metamorphosis of intergenerational relationships within the family, which occur in the context of the social process of aging. The contemporary demographic trend has its deeper socio-economic context the social policy of the state does not sufficiently reflect. Itis necessary to perceive demographic aging as a metamorphosis of life cycle. The aim of this thesisis to present the proposition that the quality of intergenerational relationships is based on the entire life cycle of an individual, and therefore the reciprocity in the family can be influenced by appropriate measures of social policy and also to draw attention to the fact that in the preparation ofsocial and political reform measures must deal with all relevant processes and not just the area ofpension insurance.
