Abstract
Globalization is a phenomenon that also has existed in the previous centuries. In the past, it had a very slow trend, but in the half of the recent century, because of the developments in mass media and widespread communications, its trend has been accelerated. It influences our life dimensions and challenges in all dimensions of our social relations specially Education. One of the organizations subject to basic changes is family system. The Iranian family always has been strong and has had a holiness and honorableness state. In spite of its resistance, it has had changes in response to global system. These changes have been positive in spite of some fears. The present research focuses on ways resulting globalization according to ‘Antony Giddens’. Then its consequences in the western family are explained. Also the researcher made a comparison between the Iranian family in the past and modern era based on sociologists’ perspectives about Children Education. The results showed that the Iranian family experienced many changes resulting from globalization. Moreover, the researcher found out that in spite of some existing pessimistic perspectives, Iranian family is not focusing on a collapse but its functions in Children Education have been changed. So it’s impossible to turn back to traditional family. Therefore, the identification of the different dimensions of the family and its changes may be useful in dealing with challenges.
