Woman is created by nature itself for motherhood. But modernity has set its own conditions, and many decide on one, at most two children. But in the recent past, mothers of many children were in the order of things.
The state did not always support childhood and motherhood. There were times when parents lived as they could, but still there were many children in their families.
Many children - many rights
Parenting is not an easy process; it requires great moral strength and, of course, costs. It is sometimes difficult to raise one or two children and give them everything for a decent development. What can we say about families where there are three or more children.
Such families are supported by the state at the legislative level. Parents are entitled to some assistance.
In the Russian Federation, much is being done to support the desire of a woman to give birth to as many children as possible. After all, if we compare the statistics on mortality and birth rates, the first is clearly ahead of the second.
Therefore, the Russian government issued many laws and provided incentives to encourage childbearing.
Who is a mother of many children
A mother with many children in Russia is a woman who has given birth to or raised three or more children.
But there is one caveat. If at least one child is over 18 years old, and young children are less than three, then the woman ceases to be considered a large child. Accordingly, all available rights and benefits are canceled.
The age is extended to 23 years in the case of training children in an accredited educational institution in full-time studies or if the child is drafted into the army. In this case, the rights and privileges are saved when a certificate is issued from an educational institution or a military registration and enlistment office.
But this rule does not apply to absolutely all regions of the Russian Federation. For example, in Moscow, a mother can be considered to have many children if there are three or more children under the age of 16 years. Age is extended to 18 years in the case of studies or military service.
Cash payments
Mothers with many children receive certain cash payments from the state, which are designed to help parents provide their children with all the necessities. Among them are the following:
- When a second or more children are born in a family, parents receive a monthly payment of 5153 rubles.
- The so-called compensation cash payments associated with a rise in the cost of living. Paid for 600 rubles. for each baby, if the family has 3-4 children, and 750 rubles. in the presence of 5 or more children. Payments are made up to the 16th anniversary. Up to 18 are paid for a child studying in an educational institution.
- If parents have dependent on five or more children, a compensation payment of 900 rubles is required.
- Very young children, up to three years old, are paid compensation for baby food every month in the amount of 675 rubles.
- Payments for utilities also include payments to mothers with many children. So, if the family has 3-4 children, 522 rubles are compensated monthly. If 5 or more children are dependent, then the amount of compensation increases to 1044 rubles.
- If there is a landline telephone in the house where a large family lives, the fee for its use is also compensated in the amount of 230 rubles. per month.
- Particularly “distinguished” mothers with many children who have given birth or have 10 children or more are receiving monetary compensation from the state for each child up to 16 years old (or up to 23 if the child is studying full-time). The amount of monetary compensation is 750 rubles. for each child.
- A woman who raised ten children at the time of registration and receipt of a pension receives a lump sum of 10,000 rubles.
- For holidays, families with 10 or more babies also receive a cash reward. So, on the international day of the family they are supposed to 10,000 rubles. from the state as a token of gratitude for the contribution to increasing the birth rate and maintaining the family cult. By the day of knowledge, they also do not remain without help. The family is paid 15,000 rubles. for collecting children to school.
- Moms who have given birth or adopt more than 7 children receive a Parental Glory medal. At the same time, they are awarded a prize of 100,000 rubles.
Do not forget about your rights
Having a lot of children is a big responsibility. In this regard, sometimes there are many difficulties in situations that families with fewer children do not cause such difficulties.
Therefore, at the legislative level, the rights of a mother of many children are fixed:
- Mom with a large number of children is not at all easy to stand in lines, so she has the right to priority services.
- Children under 6 years old are entitled to free prescriptions for medicines at the pharmacy.
- Large in priority on getting permits to children's camps, sanatoriums.

- The whole family has the right to travel on buses or commuter trains for free.
- Students eat free in the school cafeteria.
- Large families have the right to receive a land plot for the construction of a residential building. The plot can be sold.
- Mothers with many children who have raised five children who have reached the age of 8 are eligible for early retirement.
- Moreover, if the mother was deprived of parental rights or even one child died before reaching the age of 8, a pension is assigned.
- Pension for mothers with many children is assigned at the age of 50 years and insurance experience of 15 years.
Other laws supporting motherhood and children can be enacted at the regional level.
But all the rights of a mother with many children, adopted for the Russian Federation, must be fulfilled regardless of the region of residence and the well-being of the family.

When there is no dad
Sometimes it happens that in the life of a happy family, where there are many children, there is no most important man - the father of the family. But what women will not do! They do a great job with a large family, and many still manage to go to work and earn money.
But be that as it may, and large single mothers have certain rights and support from the law.
Moms, in addition to caring for children, are trying to give love to their babies, and the state is trying to somehow protect such women, giving them certain benefits.
Whom to consider a single mom
- A woman who gave birth to children out of wedlock (in the column “father” in the birth certificates - a dash or information entered from the words of the woman).
- It happens that a mother gives birth to a child while married. But the husband can prove in court that he is not the father of the child. Then the woman will be given the status of lonely.
