Child abuse: from family problems to problems at school

The paper examines domestic violence and school violence. On the basis of a questionnaire survey of schoolchildren conducted in Nizhny Novgorod in 2013, the main parameters of the parent-child relations and their influence on the involvement of the child in the situations of aggressive actions in school are analyzed. It is emphasized that the quality of family relationships and well-/ill-being in parent-child interaction determine the position of the child in the extrafamilial space, particularly in school.
