Exercising the economic function of the family manifests itself in making use of material goods in such a way that they serve the best possible way the permanent effort of an individual to self-improve. Hence, the material goods are by nature subjugated to the good of a person. Any distortion of this relationship (or hierarchy) results from the domination of subjectivism and the consumerist tendencies. Then, one can observe the development of ego societies or communities based exclusively on the material aspect. The personalist concept of the common good in relation to the family and the society allows to create the proper hierarchy of values which is put into practice when making use of the material goods for the benefit of a human being. Subsequently, the property of family enables the development of its members in the direction of the fuller humanity. The contemporary social systems demand the introduction of, so-called, family pay which determines the minimum to achieve an acceptable standard of life. Other similar initiatives are the common use of spiritual goods within a society or creating the favourable conditions for the responsible parenthood. The fulfilment of these postulates depends on the access of a family to an appropriate set of material goods.
