The narrators have the same point of view that religious upbringing in the family is connected with the acquisition of the skills of critical thinking about self, mental, intellectual, volitional and emotional competences in the light of the content and principles of the professed religion, which enable people to recognise their own place in the world. Religious upbringing perceived in this way awakes the need for continuous development. According to the narrators, religion strengthens the processes of integral upbringing.
