Summary/Abstract: The family is the basic cell of society, which enables normal civilization reproduction of the population, education and formation of members of society from their birth. As such, it must be protected by the state, which implements it through family lеgislation. The family is a complex unit, very important for the community, in which many relationships are intertwined, from the foundation of the family, ie. marriage or domestic partnership, then relations between spouses, relations between parents and children, and relations of family members with some institutions in certain cases. Family legislation creates a legal framework for the functioning of these relationships, thereby contributing to the best possible functioning of these relationships. In addition to regulating family relationships of a procedural nature, the state provides certain laws with protection for children and protection against domestic violence, thereby imposing frameworks on the behavior of family members with a view to its normal functioning, ie. sanctioning behaviors and practices that could impair the purpose of the family and lead to unwanted and harmful occurrences. The aim of this paper is to shed light on the extent to which family legislation can respond to the challenges of modern families and affect their protection.
