The book *Growing Up* (*Üles kasvamine*) helps make sense of the difficulties and challenges encountered in raising children through the lens of self-development. It goes beyond merely sharing tips and techniques, nor does it promise that problems and challenges will vanish as if by magic once the book is read. Instead, it introduces the reader to a timeless perspective on coping with everyday issues and invites them to consider the values they embody as parents when encouraging, guiding, and correcting their children. The book explores the roles that enduring goals and values, hardships, emotions, boundaries, and obedience play in the learning process. The author illustrates his points with real-life examples drawn from his own experience as a father of seven.
