	The purpose of this study was to define mothers’ level of acceptance of beliefs and behaviours towards a child which are linked to three parental myths chosen by the authors: the myth of the supreme value of the child, of the need to ensure the child’s happiness, and of making friends with the child. Furthermore, the authors wanted to discover if parental myth acceptance is linked to rating the reasons behind the parents’ behaviour in accordance with these myths. In the study, 113 mothers (aged from 22 to 50) with at least one child of age between 1 and 7 participated. An Obsessive Mother to Child Love Questionnaire (OMCLQ) and a Modern Parent Stereotype Questionnaire (MPSQ) were used. The results of the study show that the parental myths selected by the authors are moderately accepted by the surveyed mothers, both when it comes to their beliefs and to behaviours towards the child.
