This book emphasizes that the parents have an attitude of a gardener during the upbringing of their child. It is about understanding the human being as given by Rudolf Steiner. For parents to be relaxed while they help in the journey of their children's lives, it is necessary to know their child's inner needs and contribute to their child's upbringing in such a way that they grow up to be a balanced adult. This book explains the nature of the human being (three-fold & four-fold), the developmental stages, the temperaments, and the twelve senses and puts forth some suggestions as food for thought for the parents to take along in the journey of their child’s life on this earth.
