Role conflict, personal characteristics of some of its members, inadequate communication patterns or the implications of parental pathologies on children are some of the most discussed aspects"

Family plays a decisive role in the socialization process of an individual and in the transmission of values, knowledge and beliefs. The modern family is still a living and essential entity which is in the center of our individual, professional and social concerns. It is an extremely important element in the development and maturation of each person. In this sense, the protective effect of family relationships has traditionally been highlighted in the face of certain adverse situations. These are as diverse as work problems, economic difficulties or the loss of loved ones. But the family can also be a source of stress, and it has been pointed out in this regard that family stress has a particularly powerful capacity as a pathogenic element. This is because stress factors originating in the family tend to be, unlike others, frequent and recurrent. 

The hypothesis of researchers on the subject, has been that the negative impact that certain external factors may have on the development of emotional and behavioral problems in children and adolescents, is directly shaped by family structure and dynamics. In many cases, stress factors can modify the family environment to such an extent that they become dysfunctional. 

One of the most commonly studied factors of familial pathology has been their economic situation. Different research has brought to light that economics has a negative influence on psychological well-being and family relationships. In addition, there has been an increase in the number of studies which show the influence of economic stress on children and adolescents is shaped by the type of relationship that exists between parents and children. However, the processes through which economic stress can generate emotional “distress” or negatively affect family relationships still haven’t been adequately proved and clarified. One attempt to clarify such processes is that of Conger and colleagues, whose theoretical model proposes that economic stress experienced by parents increases both disharmony and conflict between parents and problems between parents and children over money-related issues.
