GRÉZLOVÁ, Aneta
The main goal of this bachelor thesis is to find out what attitude Czech young adults have towards parenthood. The bachelor thesis is divided into a theoretical and practical part. In the theoretical part, the period of youth, the characteristics of parenthood, family and marriage are defined with the help of professional literature. Attention is paid to the contemporary Czech family and its forms. Furthermore, alternative forms of cohabitation are discussed. In the practical part, there is the goal of the bachelor thesis, which is to find out what attitudes Czech young adults have towards parenthood. A qualitative research strategy has been chosen for the elaboration of the practical part. We will also find research questions through which it has been found out what ideas young people have about parenting; how important role marriage plays for today's young adults and what opinion they have on alternative forms of cohabitation. The method of questioning was chosen, where the data collection took place through a semi-structured interview. The sample consisted of young people ranging in age from 20 to 26, from the South Moravian Region. After obtaining the necessary data, the interviews were transcribed and then evaluated by means of cluster analysis. The research has revealed that parenthood is for today's young adults the embodiment of love, a new relationship is developed and experiences are transferred to a new generation, a person acquires a vision for the future, sees the success of his/her child in the growth of his/her life. Today's young people perceive marriage from a purely practical point of view, especially in easier communication in the authorities. Individuals of the young generation stated that it is not essential for them that the child be born into a marriage, they consider much more important the fact that the child grow up in a complete family. The research also showed that today's young adults have a positive attitude towards alternative forms of cohabitation.
