Aim. The aim of this article is to present how contemporary adolescents assess family relationships and the social support they receive from their parents and caregivers, and the importance of these relationships for their social well-being. The article points out the importance of family relationships and their impact on the psychosocial functioning of youth. Methods and materials. This article presents some of the results obtained in a study of the psychological and social well-being of students of Bydgoszcz primary schools (classes IV–VIII) and secondary schools (classes I–III), which refers to the social wellbeing of young people in the aspect of family relations, perceived support from this social group, and monitoring from parents/guardians. The research was conducted in 2024 on behalf of the Municipal Teacher Education Centre in Bydgoszcz, in cooperation with the Department of Education and Sport of the Bydgoszcz City Hall. The research used a diagnostic survey method. Stationary, anonymous auditorium surveys were conducted using the questionnaire technique in drawn classes. Results and conclusion. The results show that young people declare that they receive social support from their families. The fact that there is a significant downward trend in the case of ease of communication with parents – the older the youth, the greater difficulties in communication, is alarming. Also worrying is the fact that, only about 45% of students in primary school grades 4–6 declare that their parents know a lot about what they do on the Internet.
