Introduction. Any activities aimed at building awareness and knowledge about the confl ict constitute a challenge and a chance for better interpersonal relations. The article shows the perspective of the confl ict issue in the perception of parents of children with visual impairment and the anticipated style of solving the confl ict situation. In the family environment, it is impossible to avoid a confl ict or dispute, but it is possible to recognize diffi cult situations and deal with the confl ict in a way that strengthens the parent-child relationship in the family. Aim. The aim of the research was to examine the (potential) manner of solving a confl ict situation by parents of a visually impaired child. Methods. In the pilot study, the diagnostic survey method and the test technique were used. The test questionnaire consisted of 30 questions. All questions were based on the choice of one of the two situations presented. The test was based on the principle of availability and was dictated by the consent of parents to participate in the study. 32 parents of visually impaired children aged 7–16 participated in the pilot study. In order to complete the information, the study was extended to include a focus study – focus group interview, where the group consisted of 8 mothers. Results. The results of the conducted research revealed a variety of responses to confl ict situations by parents of children with visual impairment. Parents’ responses were divided into assertive responses related to satisfying one’s own needs and cooperative ones – building relationships, cooperation, and satisfying the interests of others. The respondents indicated fi ve styles of confl ict resolution: competition, adaptation, avoidance, cooperation, and compromise. This was supplemented by the focus group’s statements on confl ict resolution styles and specifi c situations in relation to family situations. Conclusions. The summary of the mothers’ statements was that there is no single, best style of approach, reaction, or solution to confl ict situations. Each can be suitable for different circumstances. People pointed out that they can use different styles during the day, which they were not aware of before. The participants pointed out that after the meeting (on-line interview) they are more aware of their own preferences in a confl ict situation.
