The oldest mother did not take her daughter to the garden, did not let her walk and forced her to beg. Now the girl is 10 years old: does she go to school and how was her life?
Ten years ago Valentina Podverbnaya from Chernigov became a real Ukrainian sensation. At 65, she decided to get pregnant and have a baby. The woman was immediately surrounded by close attention - she was invited to the show, journalists wanted to meet her. The oldest mother in the country was already surprised by the strangeness. She did not let her daughter into the garden and forbade her to communicate with her peers. Valentina swore with a choice obscenities and forced the baby to beg. At the same time, the pensioner used her last money to buy natural products and expensive clothes for her daughter. What has changed since then, and how do an elderly mother and her ten-year-old daughter live? Read in our material.
Child "from loneliness"
Valentina Podverbnaya entered the retirement age completely alone. The woman had two unsuccessful marriages behind her, which ended in divorce. She had no children from either the first or the second marriage. And then the only person close to Valentina died - her mother. The fear of loneliness prompted the woman to think that it was time to have a baby. It was her old dream: a woman saved up for
IVF fertilization for many years. And at the age of 65, after two unsuccessful attempts, Valentina managed to get pregnant.

Immediately after the birth of her daughter, Valentina became a celebrity: she willingly took part in various talk shows and programs, talked with journalists and shared life details. But gradually, the obvious oddities in behavior began to appear more and more. So, on the street, my mother walked with the child in a tightly closed stroller. When her daughter got older, Valentina forbade her to play with other children. And in the kindergarten she set a condition that she would go there with the girl.

Obviously, it was difficult for the woman to manage the child herself. The neighbors, who occasionally came to visit, began to complain to the social service that Anna Maria (as Valentina called the girl) was living in complete unsanitary conditions. The apartment was dirty, the kitchen and bathroom had a musty smell. And a plumber, who once came to fix the sink, found that Valentina was taking her daughter there "for a big time" because she was afraid of germs from the toilet.
Residents of Chernigov began to notice that the Ukrainian celebrity regularly begs for alms near the church. And Anna Maria helped her in this, running up to passers-by and begging for money. True, the girl herself looked well-fed and healthy, and was always dressed in new high-quality clothes.

In response to complaints from residents of the social services, several times they tried to come to the oldest mother in the country with a check. Valentina didn’t even let them on the doorstep, and moreover, she covered them with obscene language. True, the woman does not refuse to communicate with officials. The head of the Chernihiv district council says that the woman often comes to see her.
Valentina's strangeness is explained by the fact that she loves her daughter excessively, the head of the district council believes. “I know that mom buys only the highest quality products for her daughter, she is strictly careful not to there were artificial colors, additives and GMOs, dresses the girl in new things only from natural fibers. Has entered into an agreement with a family doctor. When Anna-Maria had a fever, she called me. I sent a car for the girl to be taken to the hospital for examination, ”the official told reporters.
Love or deaf cage
Caring for a child has become a "fad" for Valentina / open sources
An overabundance of maternal love led to the fact that Anna Maria grew up as an antisocial child until school age. Due to her mother's oddities, she did not go to the garden and did not communicate with the children, so she did not know how to behave in society. Neighbors noticed that the girl often repeats swearing at her mother, she can literally "stare" with her and discuss them loudly.
Fortunately, the girl's life changed a little after she went to school. In the first grade, Valentina also tried to dictate her terms and told the teachers that she would sit at the desk with the child. They explained to her that this was impossible, and the woman resigned herself. Taking her daughter out of school (as she did with the kindergarten) was prevented by the fear that she would be deprived of her parental rights.

The teachers say that Anna Maria is a pretty capable child. She is good at both the humanities and mathematics. The only thing, girl hyperactive, it can be difficult for her to concentrate and sit still. However, this is a problem of upbringing rather than a child's psyche. Valentina, who to this day tries to interfere in the learning process, brings much more problems to teachers. True, she listens to the advice of teachers - for example, she began to take her daughter to a drawing class.
Over time, the girl became more social and sociable / open sources
Either with the beginning of the child's studies, or under pressure from social services, but in the past few years, Valentina has become calmer. Obscene language is noticed less and less often behind her, the woman no longer sends her daughter to beg. Of course, she makes full use of her position and regularly "knocks out" from the district council either new furniture or funds for living. But this is understandable: it is practically unrealistic to support a child on a pension alone in our country.
Some neighbors still believe that Valentina needs to be deprived of parental rights: allegedly, she infringes on the rights of the child and brings her up like a prisoner in a cage. But local authorities have no obvious evidence of this. Officials assure that the mother does not endanger the child's life - she is not an alcoholic and does not raise her hand against her daughter. Would it be better for Anne-Maria at the orphanage? The question is quite controversial. The court will most likely side with the mother, and the child will have to go through a lot of unnecessary stress. I would like to believe that as she grows up, the girl will be able to correctly understand and accept such a heavy motherly love.
