Family as an absolute traditional value of the rule of law

Introduction
The family is an absolute traditional value of society and the state, since it is in its circle that the basic values, respect for traditions and culture are formed. The family is a place where moral and ethical principles are formed, knowledge and experience are passed on, and generational continuity. That is why it is important to recognize and protect family values, providing families with the necessary support and conditions for their development. The State should create laws and programs aimed at supporting families by providing access to education, medical care, housing and other basic needs. Thus, the family plays a key role in the formation and development of society, and its value is indisputable for the preservation of traditions and core values.
The purpose of the legal research in this article is a deep analytical approach to assessing the role, place and significance of family relations, viewed through the prism of law and ethical standards, which are key pillars of the social order.
Theoretical foundations
The research topic is presented in the article from different points of view and scientific approaches. Some authors considered the family as the basis of a society where values, morality and culture are formed. Other researchers have emphasized the role of the family as an institution that ensures the socialization of the individual and the transmission of traditions from generation to generation. However, modern society and the State face challenges that can have a negative impact on the institution of the family. The destruction of traditional values, the increase in the number of divorces, problems with orphanages and orphans – all this indicates the instability of family relations and the importance of this problem. Therefore, in the article, the authors consider not only theoretical aspects, but also practical measures to support and strengthen the institution of the family.
The results of the study
The results of the study. The article examines how the family contributes to the formation of a sense of belonging, strengthening moral values and ensuring the stability of society. The influence of the family on personality development and its adaptation to social conditions is also analyzed. The authors emphasized the need to protect and support family values in the modern world, where they are often subject to threats and changes. The conducted research determines that the family is not only a micro-society, but also an important component of social life. In addition, the study showed that family values have a direct impact on the development of the state.
Discussion and conclusions
2024 was declared the year of the family in Russia. Among the basic tasks of the state policy in the field of family, the following were mentioned: increasing demographic indicators; promoting family values; and obviously supporting families of soldiers of the SVR. It is also the responsibility of the state to pursue a systematic and consistent policy in the field of traditional values, "developed during the millennial history of Russia." The authors emphasize the importance of developing both legislative initiatives and public programs aimed at creating optimal conditions for the growth and well-being of Russian families.
Several ways are also proposed to strengthen the role of the family as a traditional value of society and the state. The study confirmed that the family is an absolute traditional value of society and the state, and its support and protection play an important role in ensuring the sustainable development and well-being of society.
