🤯 Head of the State Duma Committee on Family Affairs Nina Ostanina condemned Women who use IVF and have children for themselves. She believes that the authorities should pay attention to the growing popularity of solo motherhood, and that women should find real men.
"There are real men in the SVO zone. So it would be better if these women looked at our military personnel and found a way to connect with them, support them, and wait," says Ostanina. "I think it's a departure from our traditions to have a child through IVF and raise him without a father."
🤯 The cause of most childhood neuroses is the child living with their mother after a divorce, according to a priest. Stanislav Klyuev. He based his statement on two defended candidate theses.

People who grew up without a father or with insufficient paternal involvement carry "utterly destructive attitudes" into adulthood—in their views on marriage, family, and childbearing: "Immunity suffers throughout life", says Klyuev.
🤯 The state fee for marriage should be eliminated, and for divorce and name changes it should be increased, according to Russia's Deputy Minister of Justice. Maxim Beskhmelnitsyn. "For a sex change you should charge a million." - the official considers.
Speaking about gender reassignment, Beskhmelnitsyn stated that the authorities "fought for a long time" and banned the procedure in Russia, but "one problem" remains—gender reassignment is only possible for medical reasons: “It gets to the point where you just come to the clinic and say that you feel like a woman.”
🤯 More than half of Russians—52%—support the introduction of DNA paternity testing in maternity hospitals, according to the All-Russian Public Opinion Research Center (VTsIOM).
