Abstract
There is a strong relation between the type and severity of the disease/disability, the effects of treatment and/or improvement on one hand, and the quality of life on the other. In the case of a disabled child, this relation also includes members of the family. The criterion of a reduced quality of family life is the limitation of its participation in social life assessed in the area of 6 aspects, i.e.: communication, interpersonal relations with the child, mobility, self-care, domes-tic life and social life. The aim of the work is to present everyday problems in the area of the above mentioned aspects of a family with a disabled child in connection with the necessity to acquire new competences by its members.

Key words:
quality of life, disability, limitations of family in social life
