When Cristina Kirchner "challenged" teachers who gave Máximo bad marks

"When I hear about the children of power by referring to Máximo and Florencia, I do not know whether to laugh or cry. They never liked it. On the contrary, they have always suffered from small children. "The quote, taken from Sincerely, the brand new book written by Cristina Kirchner, clarifies what is the interpretation that the former president makes of the relationship of his children with power.

There, in the chapter "Nestor and I and our children too," the senator says a series of anecdotes from his daily life in Río Gallegos when Nestor was governor.

According to his own memories, at least On three occasions he had to go and talk with his eldest son's teachers who were unhappy with the qualifications he was given.

The former president recounted, for example, that when Máximo was in primary school, he had fought with a physical education teacher. This one "The military regiment 24" had insufficiently stated that the boy "did not know how to do the vertical".

Therefore, Cristina went to school and asked to speak in person with him. "Listen to me," I said. his father and I are lawyers and very good, and none of us has ever done the verticalbut if you ask the boy who is the president of the country that he knows because He lives in a house where we read newspapers and we do not have time to train vertically.", said the current leader of Unidad Ciudadana.

The following month, after the intervention of his mother, Máximo returned home with enough. "He realized … that I had noticed," said Cristina, alluding to the underlying reasons for the bad note.

A few years later, while he was already in high school, being the son of the governor "far from making his life easier, he complicated things." Cristina remembers that Néstor badumed with a "broken" administration and "overcrowded" and immediately had to choose between dismissing public sector employees or cutting wages. He opted for the second and, according to Cristina, "Maximo had to face many pressures at school"

"In 1992, he was in third grade at the school and professor of civic education, Although he pbaded between 7 and 8 in the events, in the final grade he put 4. I got upset and went to school. I asked to speak to the teacher and asked him what was the reason. He replied: "We reprimand him in the conduct" ", explains the author in his book.

In front of this situation, The former president reprimanded the teacher: he stressed that the behavior should be evaluated separately, "in the corresponding box" and that his son is "qualified for what he knew". However, this time the book leaves a trace of the result of the confrontation with the teacher.

Finally, Cristina also says that in 1994, while her son was in fifth grade, "in the first trimester, she got 10 in both math tests." However, They gave him 4 for "not having completed the practical work and the record".

"Once again. There I went again to protest", reveals the senator, then proudly adds that" the teacher, the next quarter, proposed to go to the Olympic Games of mathematics. "" Máximo replied no. Equal to his father ", concludes by drawing a parallel between the two personalities.
