We consider the family to be the first and the most important school of life, and parents are the first teachers. Family is based on the common life of persons that are related by blood. In family starts life, and the human personality is formed within it. A necessary condition for the successful development of children's personalities is a warm, intimate, and good family environment, security, an attractive and emotional environment that can only be provided by healthy family relationships. The level of family togetherness and family satisfaction are basic indicators of quality of family life. Quality of life is considered to be a wide aspect that is influenced by the mental and physical condition of the individual, social relations, level of independence, individual beliefs, and the individual's attitude towards certain characteristics of the environment in which he lives. As a part of this paper, in September 2021, the survey was conducted in which 113 students from first to fourth grade who attend the Josip Lovretić Elementary School in Otok and 113 parents participated. To conduct the research, the Family Quality of Life (FQOL) survey, which assessed the quality of life in the family in the past 12 months, was used. The survey had 25 questions, and the answers were divided on a scale of 5 degrees (1 - very dissatisfied, 2 - dissatisfied, 3 - neither, 4 - satisfied, 5 - very satisfied). This research aimed to determine how students assess the quality of life in the family, and also how their parents assess it. The task was also to make a comparison of their assessments (students' and parents'). The results of this research showed that students, and parents too, assess the quality of life in the family subjectively, thus the same results showed that the majority of students and parents are very satisfied with the quality of life in the family.
