Abstract

  This study examined the parent-child relationship and level of filial responsibility. The participants were 83 married people (37 males and 46 females, average age 40.9). The quality of parents-child relationship has not been influenced by sex, and number of siblings. The relation of parents-in-law was related with filial responsibility to parents-in-law. The filial responsibility to own parents was related with the number of siblings and distance of house to house. General filial responsibility was related with parents-child relationship with own parents.
