1 Introduction 1.1 Problems of family and marriage, state policy on youth are a priority of the Strategy of  Action of the Government of the Republic of Uzbekistan, aimed at educating the younger generation on the best traditions and values of the Uzbek people. In this regard, the study of the problem of educating a decent generation, strengthening the family and marriage are the main topics of scientific works, which was noted by the head of government in his address to the Parliament of the country as the most important sphere social research [Mirziyoyev 2020]. In the scientific literature, the study of the social status of the mother is rare, except for works of  art. Despite this, CIS scientists are actively discussing the roles of women in family life, the features and representativeness of the role of father and mother, the vocation of women in public life. Thus, scientists recognize the processes producing social mood and orientations in the family and society, where there is a correlation of values from family to career, from children to money, from  conservative marriage to celibacy and freedom. Scientific and philosophical approaches to motherhood in traditional societies were considered from the point of view of the ethnoconfessional culture of the people, the emphasis of which today acquires gender equality, the rights and freedoms of women, the activation of their socio-political life, alienating them from the purely mental status of national life [Zdravomyslova and Tiomkina, 2015 ]. Thus, under the pressure of international organizations, there is a rejection of the past, the traditional way of life and thought of women, involvement in active political life, which changes moral behavior. The politics of feminism destroy traditions and values in the social life of women as founders of family and marriage [The Seven Most Influential Women’s Organizations]. The purpose of this article is to show the Transformation of the social status of the mother: problems and solutions Abdirashid Mamasidikovich Mirzakhmedov Professor of the Department of Social Sciences of the Namangan Engineering and Technology Institute, Doctor of Philosophy.

A comparative approach is carried out to study the traditional and liberal, universal and national culture of the mother as a family value.

Volume 15|December, 2022 ISSN: 2795-7365 features of socio-psychological research to  motherhood as an object of philosophical cognition. To do this, the problem arose to study the current state of the family of marriage and the social status and functions of the mother, identifying the necessary conditions and aspects in the role of the mother in strengthening the stability of family life, the functionality of women in the family and marriage, the arguments of which are found in the research of scientists (Asrieva 2016; Gazizova 2012]. Thus, the ongoing changes in values require the study of women’s attitudes towards children, family and marriage requires urgent study of the growth of the birth trade, other crimes and immoral behaviors of women. Materritorials and methods It should be emphasized that in the last decade the feminist movement has been unprecedentedly active, international acts and agreements have been adopted that raise issues of women’s rights and freedoms, preventing discrimination against women in family life. In this regard, many works on the social status of women in the family and marriage have been published. Among them are the works of Avramenko M. M., posing the question: what is the most important purpose of a woman? The author answers the question posed in such a way that in the social status “… the main thing is not the birth of children, not motherhood, but the disclosure of their essence, the highest qualities of femininity and thanks to this, the creation of the Space of Love! Everything else is already a consequence” [Avramenko]. The analysis of the most recent years of scientific publications was carried out by searching for works on the keywords of this article, as a result of which more than forty scientific works were downloaded. Classification by research topics can be grouped into the following categories: international acts and agreements, the social role of women in the family, gender equality, employment and career, which seriously affects the role of motherhood in social life. Thus, the methods of this study were the pedagogical view of A. S. Makarenko and the philosophy of education of J. S. Makarenko. Dewey, on the basis of which the role of motherhood in social stability and security of public life has been proven. Thedefinition of the role of mothers is interrelated with the developmentof the spiritual culture of Islam as the basic value of the family and marriage in the formation of unique patterns of the highest human spiritual and moral merits of the individual for the benefit of society. The task of the study was the teleological approach to the transformation of the social status and function of women in modern society as a factor in the devaluation of the ethnoconfessional culture of the peoples of the East, which raises the problem of national spiritual and cultural identification of the population of the region. Thus, socio-culturalmethods of studying this problem ensure the identification of the main problems of social stability and security of the peoples of Central Asia. Outcomes The study of the social status of women required a comparative analysis of the transformation of social relations both in the public life of the region and the CIS countries for the essence and content of the existential state of life and life of  women, the role of parents in family life, changes in their way of life and the life of the family and marriage, as well as the identification of the psychological characteristics of women’s behavior. Scientific analyses have shown that the transformations of the social status of women, especially the mother, can be grouped into three directions of socialization and professionalization of women: The first group of factors influencing the transformation of family life were undoubtedly the “Mass Culture” of European society, which draws into its orbit of culture in the conditions of modern global information technologies, as well as the discovery of the possibility of communication between the West and the East after the fall of the Soviet system. Thus, the democratization of the public allowed modernization on the traditions and values of civilized Europe, which negatively affected the ethno-confessionalism of the peoples of Central Asia, that “… every year, 15 million adolescent girls give birth in the world, and another 5 million are forced to terminate their pregnancies” [6];
