Summary.  Article deals with the upbringing significance of social pedagogues’ works with family. The same refers to the assistance of the social pedagogue in the family upbringing and giving advices for parents. Also about principles of family upbringing.

 

The family has a specific role as a habitat in formation of individual. After all, a person's attitude toward life, his relationship with other people, family forms and ultimately develops all the properties of the human, here we can clearly see Kazakh nations’ wise word’s weight “everything you saw in the nest you will do when you fly". According to the pedagogical works, family is the starting point of development of an individual person. As eminent pedagogue, A.S. Makarenko whom was ascribed by UNESCO as one of four outstanding (on a par with John Dewey, G. Georg Kerschensteiner and Montessori) pedagogue that identified ways of pedagogical thinking in the ÕÕ century. We can see the importance of family A.S Makarenko opinion - “Family is the most important and responsible thing for a person. Family life matures and leads to happiness but first of all every family is a matter of national importance.” [1,9]

            Family upbringing is not only the duty of parents, now days it considers teachers, psychologists, social workers, and even the society.

"The family upbringing – is the basis of all education. After all, since the birth of child, family members (father, mother, brother, grandmother, etc.) devote themselves on upbringing until the period child becomes an adult. By examples and experience acquired over the centuries by working and social activity, they teach child to respect, avert bad, pursue good relationship and acknowledge environment so they could act on their own.” [2, 43].

            In society, family has two services: First, one is to leave offspring as a path behind them so did our ancestors, second one is to ensure and developed the child by subjects, improve his spirit and form him as socially adapted individual.

            For Kazakhstan, developing culture and civilization one of the most important type of education is - family upbringing. Because early intimacy among youngsters, preferring cohabitation  (arrangement where two people who are not married live together) instead of legal civil marriage , the practice of temporary marriage, orphans, the increase in the number of single mothers, the elders, young people attacks on a single elder, abandoned children, a large increase in social issues while statistical data is too high. In terms of such problems, we must continue to improve to observe strict family upbringing.

            Now day’s family structure has changed. Particularly, the number of children decreased, number of members also has decreased. Social, cultural, economic and variety of global information exchange returned and affected the nature of the relationship between the family members and their impact. Because the father obedience, respecting elders and courtesy to younger ones did not disappear among Kazakhs’ but became week. In most cases, the responsibility of fatherhood got weak on the other hand women are taking more responsibility for their families. Another feature of modernity is not growing families, parents, family with-in-laws, family ties got weak. Family relations derived from the lack of correct upbringing, correction of errors is primary requirement of today's society.

            One of the social teaching service in education system is to work in the field of family. Social pedagogue while working with family "individual-family-society" system regulates mutual relations. Analyzes the condition of the family upbringing of the students, low-income and organizes help low-income families of the child to prevent fluctuations in the development of the correction work. We can say that teachers’ have a special role in education and upbringing of the student. After all cooperated work of class teacher and parents gives a perfect result and opportunities for future right individual person.

            The child's intellectual, creative, social basis formed. "The main focus of social pedagogue - is to children, adolescents, social protect, social and medical assistance to help him, help organize training, school, family, social adaptation and rehabilitation. To solve these challenges, the social pedagogue explores the emotional and psychological status and financial situation of the child, determines how deep the crisis is, and plans ways to overcome it. It is hard to support child in difficult situations. First of all, support spiritually, convince him that all the changes will bring something better in his life; then help the child to find a ways to outcome the crisis situation, to make a decision, it must be carried out in sequence"[3.5].

            Today, the most important question is - problematic increase in the number of families and the weakening of the upbringing mission of the family. Therefore, the school must help family to improve child upbringing. In this regard, a social pedagogue activity takes place in two directions: educate and assistance upbringing. To assist parents in upbringing and forming pedagogical culture of parents and aimed to prevent family issues.  First social pedagogue assists parental counseling, as well as the creation of special educational conditions for children to help their family issues in a timely manner. The establishment of special conditions for upbringing children, social pedagogue can create basic plan for family upbringing.

            As a social pedagogue, here are the principles of family upbringing:

            - Show a growing child charity and kindness.

            - Involve child into family life, consider as an advisor.

            - Establish trusted relationships with child.

            - Regulate claim requirements.

            - Prevent physical punishments.        

            Social pedagogue works cooperated with the parents on family upbringing. Social pedagogue acts cooperated with the family, can be organized as follows:

            Social pedagogue in upbringing of the child cooperates with parents ensures control and manages family upbringing and creates conditions for good family relationship.  Protects the rights of the child, and creates conditions for formation of an individual. In order to enhance the views of parents on upbringing does enlightenment activities. Social pedagogue while working with a child can help determine the status of the child based on family values. To determine the status of the child's does test survey, interviews and analysis documents of the child. By these actions, social pedagogue helps pupils to define the role of the family and place in society. It becomes much easier when child realizes the relationship importance of his role in the family. As well as social pedagogue influence on family upbringing are able to carry on their enlightenment duty. This duty is to recommends parents ways to develop the role of upbringing. For social pedagogue use of spare time is important. Together with their parents, can lead to many interesting works out of school. Students' outside the classroom activities are also allocate with social pedagogue.

            Social pedagogue’s play in the upbringing of the younger generation has many duties. They can be advisors, teacher, educator, and distributor may serve as a Methodist. Highly skilled professional social pedagogue can educate child corresponding to modern society needs and increase responsibility of the person to carry out their task and duty for their country, their language, and help to find his passion, respect elder people and take care of younger ones also to love and care nature.

            In conclusion, to be able to obtain certain results working with the family social pedagogue’s professionalism, teaching skills should be at a high level. Because during social work with the family social pedagogue to solve the issue of the child's personality, create comfortable environment, specialist is the person whom creates relationship bridges between social environment and child.
