Journal Title: Przegląd Socjologiczny - Year 2015, Vol 0, Issue 1
Abstract
The article is focused on the analysis of the relationship between socio-economic status of the family and the quality of life of the child. The sixth-graders living in Lodz from the schools selected on the basis of the share of pupils getting fee-meals were respondents of the auditorium questionnaire. Conducted statistical analysis show the disadvantaged position of children brought up in the low status families. In all crucial spheres of life of a child taken into account in the research: living conditions, family relationships, peer relationships, school, health, and subjective well-being, we can argue that children from above mentioned category experience lower level of the quality of life than their better off peers. Furthermore, the level of global quality of life differs substantially between groups selected with regard to SES of the family of the respondent.
