This paper describes a study devoted to the peculiarities of a preschool child's perception of their family, depending on the degree of emotional completion of their parents ' divorce. The sample consisted of 40 children of preschool age, 15 of them from families with a preserved marriage, 25 from divorced families. The test was conducted using the "family drawing" test and the questionnaire "level of completion of marital divorce in a family with a child". The data obtained show that a child's perception of their family with a "good" divorce is different from the perception of a child from a family with an "bad" divorce. Also, the child's perception of his family in a situation of "good" divorce does not differ from the child's perception of his family in the case of a preserved marriage.
