Recently, the artist became a guest of the “Live Broadcast” program, in which she shared her views on raising children. It's no secret that the blonde is periodically subjected to severe criticism. Spiteful critics envy Kravets, who can afford to live large.
One of the spectators attacked Alena, accusing her of living for show. “You are preparing your daughter to be looked at and envied,” the woman said. Kravets did not hide the fact that she was used to encountering such an attitude, so she hastened to explain her position.
“Envy is definitely there. We feel this at school. What is shameful about it if it is possible to dress a child well and hire tutors for him? I want the best for my child, that's absolutely normal. We used to have a private school, but not so long ago it was transferred to the rank of state educational institutions. Of course, I want to transfer my daughter to a private school, but we have a strict father who believes that they teach better in public schools,” shared Alena.

Then the studio showed how Kravets and her heiress went shopping. The celebrity tries to buy her child high-quality and expensive things. “It grows like in a greenhouse. Does she know the real world?” – the host of the program, Boris Korchevnikov, could not stand it. Alena noted that her daughter is no different from her peers. “This is also a child who likes to misbehave, like all children,” said the blonde.
According to Kravets, studying at a public school left her with negative memories. Alena was forced to adhere to strict rules, which was contrary to her character.
“To be honest, I have a bad feeling for the rest of my life... We were forced to wear a special uniform, and I always wanted to stand out, to be different from everyone else. I am teaching my child to do this. In the third grade, my ears were pierced, and the headmistress tore the earrings out of my ears because I couldn’t wear them. I developed pus, I was treated for six months,” the celebrity explained.
