Sažetak
In this paper, the author analyses the data of the Survey on Labour in Croatia in 1997 and particularly those related to families with children of up to 15 years of age. The author reaches a conclusion that in Croatia, families with one or two children prevail, while families with a larger number of children are fewer and fewer. A decreased number of children in families is explained by the economic difficulties of the country because of which children have become an expensive resource for many families. With regard to demographic policy measures, the author proposes tax reliefs aimed at strengthening the material position of young couples, come benefits for families with one or two children to encourage them to have a second or a third child, and specioal care for the families in need of the government support.
