The values learned during childhood are important in the development and socialization of child. The family is considered to be the agency of primary socialisation and the first focal socialisation agency. In the last two or three decades the sociology of childhood has gained increasing attention and triggered numerous empirical studies as well intensive theoretical disputes, starting in the Scandinavian and the English-Speaking countries. Up to this time, sociology had approached children and childhood mainly from a socialisation perspective, and the emergence of the new childhood sociological paradigm ran parallel to the faminist critique of sociological traditions. Childhood sociologists attacked the "adultocentric" approach and the "separative view" of sociology towards children.
