Abstract: The purpose of the article is to show qualitative changes in the family in modern Russian society, which are associated with global social processes: digitalization, urbanization, the formation of new characteristics of family relations unusual in an industrial society. The object of the study is the value orientations of young people, based on the subcultural values of their social interaction, as well as the gender characteristics of their own self-esteem, maintaining the image of young women in a family with preschool children. The author analyzes the problem of constructing family relations based on its values for the younger generation using the example of comparative sociological data on the values of the subculture of young people of school and older age, as well as a study of the social well–being of young women with preschool children about satisfaction with constructed relationships in a marriage and family union. The respondent base was 448 people In the Bryansk region, 66 of them are students, 294 are high school students, and 93 are young women with preschool children. The research was conducted in the Bryansk region for a number of years (2018, 2020-2023). The value orientations of constructing future family relations are considered by the author from the perspective of the conflictological paradigm: (R. Dahrendorf, L. Kozer, L. S. Vygodsky, A.N. Leontiev). At the same time, the breadth of social analysis and the volume of the problem justified the possibility of the author's appeal to other sociological paradigms: action and social interaction as a moment of "mutual understanding" (G. Bloomer and A. Schutz, P. Berger, T. Lukman), P. Bourdieu's cartographic sociology. Based on the results of the study, the mechanisms of influence of value orientations and status positions on the design and subsequent practice of family relations among young people have been identified. The objectivity and representativeness of the data obtained allows us to identify the main directions of constructing family relationships among young people.
