From the history

In the history of the Russian revolutionary movement, an amazing person is known, whose life ended very early. Virgil Leonovich Shantser. Underground nickname - Marat: so called him VI Lenin. Political views of Shantser were shared by his wife, Natalya Fedorovna. The family brought up three children. Younger, Eugene, did not remember his father - he died when the boy was not even six years old. But the invisible Virgil Leonovich was still present in the family. Mother often repeated: "Papa's book", "Papa's favorite jam". ..

The elder brother was told about his father by his father, who were with him in exile in the Siberian taiga. Evgeny formed the image of an unbending Bolshevik-Leninist, kind, honest, just, under his enormous influence, a character was formed. At the age of twelve, Eugene received an unexpected gift from his mother - Natalia Fedorovna wrote a letter to him for her elder son: "My dear Sasha, in five days you will be twelve years old. Congratulations, my friend, you become everything;more and more human. It's time for you to continue what I started. .. I served Russia in a word and deed. .. "

When the revolution was over, Eugene Shanzer, along with the boys like him, carried out assignments of revolutionary workers. ..

Impressions of childhood,heroic deed for the glory of the Motherland are the foundation, the foundation on which his civic position is formed. One can not help recalling the remarkable words of Charles Montesquieu: "The best way to instill in children the love of the fatherland is to have this love from the fathers."

From the eldest to the youngest, from parents to children ideals, traditions, attitude are passed. The kid does not know how to speak yet, and we already show him everything that surrounds us, green meadow, birches under the window, bright buildings. He rejoices at what he sees. When he grows up, we will explain to him that all this is a small part of our great homeland."Attach, mother, children's love of the Motherland" - with such an appeal I want to turn to women after the poet.

Sometimes the mother does not know how to cope with her son, if the father is on a long trip, on a long voyage - sometimes months, even years. And his letters? Orders? What to hide, husbands from time to time have to listen to their wives in the presence of their son or daughter reproaches for the fact that they literally burn at work. Thus, children involuntarily acquire the features of indifference, selfishness, they do not develop a sense of duty. And on the contrary, by not insinuating the best character traits of husbands, women awaken the children's natural desire to adopt these qualities.

Here are the records of the wife of an officer who served in Afghanistan. Galina Dudina reflects on the same, about which we are now talking: can a father in the distance educate a child.

"The day was overcast, and the dawn barely made it to the room. The children were still asleep, and I looked out the window at the barely visible trees, already flown around, bare. Suddenly she heard someone open the door with a key. She shuddered, because I have the key. I rushed to the hall: he! Has arrived. For a few days. Came to the leather jacket, or I laugh, or cry. The boys woke up, hung on his father: Antoshka on one hand, Vitali on the other. And I sat down, I can not get up. As if my legs were gone. For joy, probably, it also happens.

Several days turned into a dream dream. The November holidays were approaching, and my husband returned to Afghanistan.

After putting my sons to bed, I sit down for another letter. Before listing all that happened for a day, I imagine a distant airfield in my mind, I'm sorting through the past.

I remember everything. I remember when the youngest was born, Anton, my husband was not at home either - flew to the Far East. Our social workers brought me flowers. I lived in the town recently and did not immediately feel what kind of friendly people here. And now, when my husband serves where he is often beset by danger, I feel it at every turn.

Before Vitalik went to first grade, his father wrote to his son:

"I congratulate you on the title of schoolboy. Learn well, do not be lazy, listen to your mother and help her, walk with Anton, you are now a man in.home instead of dad. .. "

It seems that Vitalik firmly remembered his father's parting words, because, after returning from school, he suddenly repeated his words:

- Well, how do you cope here?

And the intonation is the same, preoccupied. I was both funny and sad. And just like Eugene, I answered my son: "I'm doing a good job. .."
