The aim of this thesis is to discover connection between parenthood and religion among Croatian university students. The goal of the thesis was to determine a possible connection between students’ attitudes towards parenthood and their attitudes towards religion. In this context the focus was aimed at students’ attitudes regarding personal potential parenthood, on students’ religious beliefs, on the existing connection between religion and the desire for parenthood and on the ideas students had regarding potential advantages and disadvantages in parenthood. For starters, it is important to define parenthood, changes it brings into the life of an individual, as well as changes that happen to future mothers and fathers. Furthermore, mothers and fathers differently perceive parenting roles, which is the reason why they act differently as parents. Every parent has a personalised educational system which they develop through life and through which they try to fulfil their family’s needs. Of course, there are many factors that affect parenthood, some of which might lead to postponed parenthood. Also, it has been noticed that belonging to a specific religion can be beneficial to family life. In interest of retaining students’ attitudes as best as possible, research was done through anonymous pooling where we used a questionnaire with closed type questions. This type of a questionnaire made it easier to collect attitudes and thoughts from students that took part in the research. Results of the research showed that many participants have a desire to become parents one day, and that those who stated they belonged to a certain religion had higher results of wanting to become parents than participants who did not belong to a religion. Through these results we can conclude there is a connection between attitudes students have towards parenthood and attitudes they have towards religion.
