My mother bring me up when I was child.
I grow up now and left my hometown to move to city.

What's the difference between "bring up" and "grow up"?
Are they same?:-?
 
Your sentences have the wrong tenses. That seems to be a recurrent problem of yours.

My mother brought me up when I was a child (past tense).
I have grown up now and have left my hometown to move to the city (present perfect).

I would like to remind the OP that the simple present does not apply to something that (has) already happened, but I am not a teacher.
