“My hair stands on end when I read how children poison teachers.”

Fifteen years ago, we loved Viktor Dobronravov for his role as the courier Fyodor in “Don't Be Born Beautiful,” we now adore him Khludov in the cult performance “Running” by Yuri Butusov, but we still know very little about the actor’s family (in addition to the legendary dad). We are corrected. In the new "Education Rules" Victor talks about life with the daughters Varya (9 years old) and Vasilisa (3 years old).

1. I consider the punishment to be a completely pedagogical measure. Of course, I'm not talking about assault. Rather, about some “fines”. For example, I can completely deprive the children of the TV for two weeks, just pull the wires out of the sockets, take them out of the house, and that's it - no cartoons. Or I’m threatening to buy an older daughter a button phone instead of a smartphone - for her this is the worst. What are these sanctions for? Both the eldest and the youngest are now at an age when they may simply disobey, argue, do something contrary to the rules. I don’t see a catastrophe in such behavior, just, in my opinion, it’s important for people from childhood to understand that they need to be responsible for their actions, be aware of the consequences.


2. If I take offense at children, then only for show - I represent an offense. But not to manipulate: go, they say, feel sorry for me. It is more likely that a person understands that it is impossible to behave this way, that another can be hurt, unpleasant. And sincerely offended, not talking, I think it's pretty big stupidity. I met parents who were offended by children for many years, even stopped communicating with them - this never led to anything good, the road to nowhere.

3. I try to isolate children from the theater. Because I myself grew up in it, now I work there and I don’t want my daughters to follow this beaten track, consider themselves to be involved by default.

If at a more meaningful age they say that they are interested in the acting profession, please help, tell me. But I'm not going to direct them to this path

And so we go to the theater. We, of course, have many friends who work in different theaters, so we try not to miss everything new and interesting. For example, Oleg Dolin's excellent performances, both adults and children, are just humor for all ages. If we talk about the classics, I really love the “Snow show of Glory Polunin”. For us, who grew up in Soviet times, remembering that Polunin, those “Licedeevs”, that Asisyaya, this is generally something very reverent and close. But modern children also like him very much - verified.


4. I have no attitude - to educate children by intellectuals. Yes, of course, they should develop comprehensively: listen to good music, watch good movies, high-quality cartoons. Daughters travel with us around the world, go to museums. But this is not done because my wife and I set ourselves such a goal, we ourselves simply live this way and the children do not know any other model of education.

5. Like any children, my daughters are not ready to exchange cartoons for museums. And I see no reason to force them to do this. As well as cancel some cultural trips, put them off until a more suitable age. He may never come. In my opinion, children just need to offer different options for spending leisure time, not to be afraid that they will not sit somewhere or whine, - in general, offer and try everything. Then sooner or later something will hook them.

It was like that for me. Until a certain age, for example, I did not like books. Yes, I read, but not because I wanted to, but because it was necessary. And then I came across “The Lord of the Rings” and I realized what it was like to read a book in full swing when you cannot stop, when the book is completely captivating. But if I had not had the habit of reading books, this would not have happened. Therefore, it is necessary to open children different opportunities for joy, pleasure. They don’t understand now, they will understand later.

7 tips to help your child love reading (voluntarily!)
The eldest daughter, for example, reads quite a lot at 9. We started, of course, with the classics - we read the Deniskins Tales, Russian folk tales, and tales of the peoples of the world at night. And now she already has the era of Harry Potter, the hobbit, well, my wife and I, of course, put some books from time to time.

6. Previously, parents were afraid that the child would say a swear word, but now it’s already flowers. Parents sometimes sound the alarm in school chat with their eldest daughter - they say that the children send each other some kind of wild messages, such as “have passed this to 25 friends, or your close relative will die”. This is already terrifying, and yet they are not even teenagers. What will happen next and how to deal with all this is unclear. At a minimum, you probably need to just continue to educate children on the moral principles on which we were educated: to learn to hear other people, not to betray, to be able to thank, to tell the truth. The world, of course, is changing, life is becoming more rapid, but some principles, in my opinion, should remain unchanged.

7. It is important to teach the child to respect others as early as possible, in particular those who are older.
