How to become a good parent in the modern world? For ten years, leading sociologists, the authors of this book, tried to find an answer to this question, communicated with different people and collected their opinions and experiences.

The interlocutors were people of different ages and with different parental experience and experiences. They all went through similar difficulties, but dealt with them in different ways.

The purpose of this book is to help parents find answers. For example, to questions like: why is it normal to be tired of children? How to combine work and raising children? How does modern parenting differ from the experience of our mothers and grandmothers?
