Dialog can be understood as the communication between persons or the groups  of persons which aim at the mutual understanding resulting in the strengthening of  relations and in the fostering of cooperation. In case of a family it can be a consultation  in the important matter but also in a broad sense it can be any other communication  between the family members in everyday life situations. Such a dialog understood as  the daily conversation have vital importance for a family.  Families are constituted by more than one person who create a network of  relations thus by social sciences families are described as the interaction systems.  Conditions of good communication can be described from the point of view  of two persons as well as from the point of view of a family as an unit. Correct  communication promotes family cohesion, allows to handle daily issues, helps  to avoid conflicts, supports intergenerational transmission of values, increase the  inner intimacy of family and can be the pattern for the younger generations. Correct  communication depends on openness and empathy of family members and can be  threaten by the overuse of media among other factors.
