Edgard Zapashny has been in the cage for more than 20 years.to tigers! And it should be noted, he works with them very successfully - after all, predators in his presence turn into "domestic cats". Not at all easier for Edgard. The artist has two daughters: the eldest, Stephanie, 5 years old, the youngest, Gloria, 3 years. The artist broke up with their mother Olga a few years ago, but this did not prevent them from remaining as one family.Edgard ZapashnyPhoto: Sergey Lantyukhov

1. Indulge on holidays

“I like to spoil my little ones.And why not? I want them to have a happy childhood. True, it is becoming more and more difficult to buy presents each time, since my daughters have accumulated a lot of toys. It is good that Stesha already knows what she wants. She turned five on February 28, and she asked for an Elsa doll with a microphone. I had to travel around Moscow to find one, it is not sold everywhere."

2. To discipline

“The other day Stesha came to the circus.She, her mother Olya and sister Gloria watched me train the tigers. Then the eldest daughter stood up and demonstratively said: "Dad, I'm going to train now - pull the splits and do cartwheels." I warned Olya right away that Stefania would not sit in the orchestra pit or carry brushes to Nikas Safronov. My daughters will become circus performers, popular and highly paid."Edgard ZapashnyPhoto: Sergey Lantyukhov

3. Say no to children.

"I'm not raising future Paris Hiltons.My children know the word "no". Sometimes, when we are walking through "Detsky Mir" and Stefania starts whining, I refuse on purpose. I am raising her so that she knows that she does not get everything in this world. We have already had tears and hysterics about this. But you can't get me with this. I don't want the girls to become spoiled brats who torment their parents and society with their behavior."
