(Wydawnictwa AGH, 2018) Tomczyk, Justyna
The purpose of this article is to present the relationship between gender budgeting(GB) and the economic function in the household and family life.

Psychosocial and economic aspects of nesting as perceived by adult children living with their parents
(Wydawnictwa AGH, 2018) Bieńko, Mariola
One of the developmental tasks of early adulthood is autonomy expressed through living outside one's family home. This is being postponed increasingly often, and this process of deferment, called nesting (in this context: remaining in the original »nest«, rather than starting one's own), is increasingly common among young adults aged between 18 and 34. Sociologists indicate avariety of transitions from youth to adulthood as aresult of the fading of astrict interrelation between leaving the home and gaining economic independence and starting one's own family. The aim of this article is to present qualitative study results based on 42 interviews with women and men, aged between 27 and 38, who live with their parents in Warsaw. This analysis is focused on showing the process of nesting in the context of relationships between young adults and their parents. Studies show that »extension« of the youth phase is aresult the subjects' fear of lack of satisfactory financial prospects in adult life and what they perceive as their parents' overprotectiveness.
Family networks of people with disabilities and their role in promoting the empowerment of people with disabilities
(Wydawnictwa AGH, 2018) Stojkow, Maria; Żuchowska-Skiba, Dorota
Family members are the key source of social, emotional and financial assistance for people with disabilities throughout their lives. However, the role of the family undergoes significant changes in different periods of the life of people with disabilities. During childhood, adolescence, adulthood and old age, people with disabilities need other forms of support, which means that they undertake educational, professional or family activities related to starting their own families and bringing up children. Around that time, their relationship with the family is changing. The role of the family is becoming limited in the area of control and assistance in making life choices for people with disabilities.Our goal will be to reconstruct the family’s presence in social networks of adults and to identify socio-demographic and emotional factors that affect the number of contacts with the family. This will be the starting point for presenting the impact of family relationships on strengthening empowerment and promoting self-determination among adults with disabilities. The analysis will be based on data from Social Diagnosis 2015.
