The educational relationship, being humanly determined, becomes a privileged instrument of education because it accepts the difference and recognizes the limit of the individual in the wealth of the other by himself during a time, not too short but not too long, in which he identifies as useful and fundamental, not only to promote the intentional and global growth of the educating, but also to favor mutual involvement within the community. This contribution aims to investigate the role of the family today in the society affected by the coronavirus emergency. The sense of citizenship, in such a context, tends to change transforming and adapting to the sociocultural changes that characterize the evolution of the community. Hence, we are talking of not only a health issue, but a problem of immediate educational interest, which embraces the most authentic diversity and human relationships. The family, the most relevant educational environment for the development of relationships and parenthood, today is put to the test, by a socio-educational condition in deep crisis, caused by the pandemic situation of Covid-19.
