ASPIRATIONS, CONCERNS AND PRIORITIES OF FAMILIESWITH SCHOOL-AGE CHILDREN

A decent standard of living could be defined by covering general biological and social needs at a given time. In the following we will see how different income categories could ensure or not, a decent standard of living in urban and rural areas for the family of adults with dependent children, based on data collected inside the grant GAR-UM-2019-XI-5.5-8/15.10.2019 named 'Decent standard of living forfamilies with school-age children'. The research sample included 173 families with school-age children and data were collected through questionnaires, from 1 April to 30 June 2020. We were interested in several aspects of the life of these families, among which the accessibility of children to currentforms of education;the possibility of asserting the couple's partners and their possibility to aspire to the bestpossible schools for their children;the extent to which parents' rights are respected both in the workplace and in society;their safety at home, at work and on the street. Also, we looked at concerns related to expenditures and satisfaction with daily life of the respondents.
