The life of 12-year-old son of US President Barron Trump is very different from how millions of his peers live.
Edition “Gossip”Figured out how the life of America’s first son in the White House was shaped.
It is noteworthy that before Barron Trump for 50 years, only girls lived in the White House (Barack Obama, like Bill Clinton, George W. Bush and several other presidents - daughters). The same heads of state with sons held their posts when the children had already reached the age when they usually live separately from their parents.
Private school
First Lady Melania Trump and her son did not immediately move to the White House, for some time they lived in the Donald Trump penthouse in Manhattan. In New York, Barron attended the Colombian Preparatory and Grammar School, which is considered one of the best schools in the world. Having moved to Washington, the boy began to study in a private school. St. Andrew's Episcopal Schoolwhere there were no students from presidential families before. Education at the institution costs 40 thousand dollars a year. In classes - from 11 to 13 students. Before Barron Trump began studying at this school, the parents of the students were promised that the security measures associated with this would be "invisible" and would not affect other children in any way.
By the way, having chosen this school for a child, Trump departed from the tradition: for the last 35 years, the presidents' children have attended school Sidwell friends in Washington.
Press attention
As soon as Donald Trump got involved in the presidential race, his loved ones became the focus of the press. Of course, Melania and Ivanka got a significant part of him, but they began to write a lot about Barron. Moreover, the journalists were very picky about the boy. Perhaps, unsmiling, unusual for Americans, played a role: Barron in the press was not only called squeezed and "on his mind", but even suspected of having autism.
His mother and other famous people, for example, the daughter of 42 US President Bill Clinton Chelsea, who asked journalists to leave the child alone, defended the teenager from the media attacks.
Apparel
If it were not for the famous family, Barron Trump could not be distinguished from any other 12-year-old schoolboy. On ordinary days, he is wearing simple T-shirts and shorts or short jeans, but if he goes with his parents to an important event, then he always has a suit and tie.
But even from such a seemingly unpretentious wardrobe of Barron, journalists manage to get reasons for publications. They either criticize the boy for dressing too simply for a flight on the presidential plane, “like going to a movie theater,” or, on the contrary, declare him a style icon.
By the way, after the criticism of Barron about his clothes, even the journalists themselves called on colleagues to leave Trump’s son alone and let him dress like all children of his age. What, in fact, Barron and continues to do. He wears stamps mostly democratic, for example, with school uniform he wears sneakers New Balance worth no more than 150 dollars.
Hobbies
On the territory of the White House, definitely, there is always something to do for both adults and children: there is a swimming pool, a basketball court, a bowling alley and even a cinema. As for Barron's favorite hobbies, they are not very different from what his peers love: sports, video games, movies.
Donald Trump mentioned that the boy is “very good at computers,” and Melania said in an interview that his son used to love to draw. By the way, the president also publicly complained about the cruelty of computer games and the Internet in general: “Films, the Internet, computer games - there is so much violence in all this! I see what my son is looking at, and I am perplexed: how can you show it at all? "
Golf
It is known that Barron, like Donald Trump, loves golf. For father and son, this is a reason to spend time together: as the press writes, the boy knows that this sport is loved by businessmen and politicians, and he enjoys playing golf with his father.
Separate transport
Not so long ago, newspapers wrote that Barron carried on a special car secret service, separately from their parents. At least when the photographers captured the first US family at the airport in March 2018, the pictures showed that Barron and his parents were coming from different cars.
It is not reported exactly how they protect members of the president’s family and how much it costs. But according to the information CNN Moneywhen the family was still living in the New York skyscraper Trump Tower after the elections, the city spent a million dollars a day to provide the necessary security.
Grandmother and grandfather
Barron has the opportunity to communicate a lot with his grandparents: Melania's parents, Victor and Amalia Knavs, are frequent guests at the White House. However, they do not live there, unlike, for example, from Barack Obama's mother-in-law Marian Robinson, who was constantly with the family of the president.
Nanny
A couple of years ago in an interview with Melania Trump said that she devotes all her time to the child: she prepares for him, takes him to school, picks up after school and so on. But journalists found out that Barron (at least two or three years ago) still had a nanny who lived with Trump.
Room
Journalists, of course, do not manage to get into Barron’s room in the White House, so you have to be content with Melania Trump’s stories about how the nursery looked like in the past. According to the first lady, when they lived in Manhattan, little Barron painted the walls of his room with cars and cars.
Whole floor
It is also unknown how much space Barron's room occupies in the White House. In the previous dwelling - a luxury penthouse in New York - the boy was given an entire floor, which everyone in the house called "Barron's room."
