    How does the average Russian parent deal with losing their child in the war?

    Like have they just been brainwashed over the decades to just accept it, or are they afraid to speak up to do anything, or are they silenced into speaking out, or something else or a combination of things?

      All of those. The loss of a loved of a child is one of the worst things one can experience.

      Everyone reacts differently. Some with rage some with depression. Most people will denie.

        I saw a video once about a mother going all the way to a base to pick up her son.

        That was in another Russian war, probably Afghanistan.

        Anyway, she eventually talked him into deserting, with the help of his superior officers, who said they would turn a blind eye.

        His argument for staying was basically “Yes, I kill people and I might end up dead myself, but I have a bit of salary in the meantime”.

      I assume some people would double down on the necessity of war if their child died there. Like some kind of “the war was needed and correct, otherwise what did my child died for?”, you know? I would assume that the thought that your child died for nothing is too scary for some people.

      The Council of Mothers and Wives of Russian soldiers shut down after they were labelled “foreign agents” by the state.
