This study examines the development and empirical validation of a value-oriented model of family upbringing that explains how parental value orientations are translated into everyday interaction practices and contribute to the formation of sustainable family relationships. In the context of ongoing social transformations, many existing approaches focus on isolated aspects of family life, while the dynamic interrelation between motivational orientations, emotional climate, and pedagogical practices remains insufficiently explored. Addressing this gap, the present research proposes an integrative model that combines value-based, emotional-communicative, and practice-oriented dimensions of family functioning. Methodologically, the study adopts a mixed-methods design. At the quantitative stage, Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) was employed to examine the relationships between parental values, family climate characteristics, and indicators of relationship sustainability. The model demonstrated robust fit indices and showed that family climate acts as a key mediating mechanism through which parental value orientations are transformed into stable patterns of interaction. The qualitative stage, based on in-depth interviews, provided insight into how values are enacted in everyday family life through shared rituals, emotional support, open communication, joint coping strategies, and sustained cooperation between families and schools. The findings indicate that the sustainability of family relationships should be understood not as a fixed trait but as a developmental outcome shaped by continuous, intentional, and value-informed practices of family members. The study makes a theoretical contribution by substantiating a comprehensive model that integrates motivational, emotional, and practical components of family upbringing. Its practical significance lies in the applicability of the results to the design of parental support programs, the prevention of family stress, the development of school–family partnerships, and the formulation of systemic family policy measures. While the study is limited by single-source data, self-report measures, and a cross-sectional design, it outlines clear directions for future longitudinal, cross-cultural, and intervention-based research.
