War through the eyes of readers "Medusa"
Sarah (Ufa). He already spit on himself, and for children [over the three years of war] it became a thousand times worse. For a son who will grow up and can be sent to some war. For a daughter, who can be a victim of a returned pardoned rapist or killer. I still think how much will be surrounded by my children of those who grew up in the families of those who returned from the war. People who themselves will be crippled and will make their children the same ...
There is no longer a sense of safety. It was not particularly in this country before in this country (Russia), and now even more so. From the news about the new shelling of Ukraine, about the children who died there, I want to tear their hair, howl, scream and curse everyone who started this war. A feeling of powerlessness, fear burns from the inside. I do not see the future for this country. There is only one dream - so that the children grew up and leave where at least a little safer, where their lives will be appreciated, where they can be free, say what they think. And I consider my life to be finished. In this country, I am a living dead. Without hopes and without the future.
