Summary/Abstract: Having in mind that every social phenomenon should be perceived in a specific social context, parental alienation has to be considered having in mind the specific characteristics of modern society and social phenomenon that are most directly related to it – the modern family. Social reality is complex, layered and diverse, and as such, confronts the family group and its actors with unprecedented challenges. However, families from socially deprived backgrounds are particularly vulnerable to potential family problems. Parental problems often result in chaotic and inconsistent parenting styles and inadequate care for children. To what extent this affects alienated parenting and what are the consequences of such practices on children’s socialization, we will try to answer by analyzing recently researches on parenting in some Roma settlements in Serbia.
