    Abstract: Comparative analysis of the images of the actual and probabilistic future families was conducted in
order to study the peculiarities of formation of family models in children (senior preschool age). Data was
collected using a combination of two research method, i.e., focus group method and family drawing projective
technique. The reasons for selection of qualitative research methods in sociology were the following:
psychological specifics of childhood, close determination of an evolving mind and children’s relations with the
“lifeworld” and social space. The research has shown differences in the actual and future family models as
viewed by children with a trend for their transformation.
