Mother's love is the purest, not dependent on any circumstances. It is the mother who will always understand, accept any choice of the child, because the main thing for her is the happiness of her beloved child. If a person in the family happens just like that, then he can be considered the happiest.

Many writers and poets sang of maternal love in their works. These literary examples for writing-reasoning on the OGE in the Russian language, the Wise Litrecon, were pleased to select for you. But if you missed some specific argument, then write to us in the comments what you need to add.

  1. In the story of N. V. Gogol "Taras Bulba" maternal love is shown on the example of the wife of the protagonist, the stern Cossack Taras. The heroine put all her love, tenderness and passion into feeling for her sons Ostap and Andriy. Marriage did not bring her happiness: she saw only anger and beatings from her husband. But the children for her always remained the light in the window. They were rarely seen, as the sons studied away from home. But when the mother met with the children, she did everything for their comfort, she could not see enough of them. She was not even afraid to stand up for her sons before their father, who sent them to fight. And on their last night at home, the inconsolable mother admired the sleeping Ostap and Andriy until morning. Her love for offspring is evidence that the heart of a mother beats for the sake of her children.
  2. Mother's love is vividly shown in the story of L. N. Tolstoy "Childhood" in the image of Natalya Nikolaevna, Nikolenka's mother. The woman was distinguished by meekness and kindness, she was considered a real angel. She loved her husband, but he deceived and ruined her. Natalya Nikolaevna did not hide her love for children, she was not ashamed to caress them and talk to them (although such attention to offspring was not common among the nobility). Yes, the mother did not spend too much time with the children, but they all felt her love and care, they communicated with her every day. The death of Natalya Nikolaevna was a terrible blow for everyone, especially for Nikolenka. Children especially strongly feel the love of their mother, so it is very difficult for them to lose it.
  3. Blind and reckless maternal love is shown in the comedy by D. I. Fonvizin "Undergrowth". The landowner Prostakova loved only her son Mitrofan, indulged him, surrounded him with care (sometimes excessive). The woman did everything for the sake of her overage child, not even noticing that excessive care makes him ungrateful and lazy. Mitrofan himself took maternal love for granted, for him there were only his own interests, and his mother was only their executor. Therefore, the son abandoned the parent at a difficult moment, when she ceased to be powerful. Unfortunately, not all people can appreciate maternal love at its true worth.
  4. The theme of mother's love is given attention and in the story of N. M. Karamzin "Poor Liza". The main character lived with her old mother, who was her only relative. The elderly peasant woman loved her husband and daughter very much, and the loss of her lover made Liza the last hope for her mother. Therefore, despite the great love for Erast, sweeping away everything in its path, the girl took care of her parent, tried to protect her from the passions of her own life, even before suicide, she thought about how to soften this act for her mother. However, with the death of her daughter for an elderly woman, the meaning of life dried up, she also died. Thus, the essence of a mother's being is the life of her child, which is why it is so difficult for women to survive the death of their children.
  5. A mother's love always manifests itself in different ways. A. N. Ostrovsky in the drama "Dowry" showed the unusual maternal love of Kharita Ignatievna Ogudalova for her daughter Larisa. The Ogudalovs are poor, there is only one chance to get out of poverty - the successful marriage of Larisa. This is the reason that Harita Ignatievna is trying in every possible way to promote her daughter to arrange her personal life: she arranges evenings to which she invites wealthy people, asks the closest rich people for money for maintenance, forces Larisa to communicate with her unpleasant “high” society. Harita Ignatievna sees happiness and success in this, she wishes her daughter well, she only does it in her own way, with an emphasis on material well-being.
  6. In the novel by F. M. Dostoevsky "Crime and Punishment" Pulcheria Alexandrovna, mother of Rodion Raskolnikov, shows an example of the highest maternal love. She sees only the best in her son, puts all her hopes on him. For his education and living in St. Petersburg, his mother is ready to give all her savings. Pulcheria Alexandrovna does everything for the sake of the heir, and he appreciates this love and care, to be ashamed of such a high honor for him, the murderer. When Rodion began to be tried for a crime, the inconsolable mother went crazy, and then died, because she could not endure the suffering of her son. This example demonstrates the inseparable connection between a mother and her child: when a disaster occurs in a child's life, his mother experiences it more acutely than he does.
  7. Countess of Rostov , the heroine of the novel by L. N. Tolstoy "War and Peace", represents the absolute image of the mother. Her motherhood is the main characteristic of her personality, for the sake of her family and children she is ready for anything, even for meanness (she does not want to give carts for the wounded in order to save property for the children, she prevents the love of Sonya and Nikolai, because the girl is poor). The loss of a child for her is the main tragedy in her life, because after the death of her son Petya, she almost died herself. For her children, Rostova is the main protector and adviser, she will do everything possible for them, for which she is loved and appreciated. This speaks of the generosity and power of maternal love, all-consuming and all-forgiving.
  8. Ilyinichna, heroine novel by M. A. Sholokhov "Quiet Flows the Don" She has invested her whole life in her children. She married a beautiful and flourishing girl, and then the beatings and betrayals of her husband began. But how to leave, because they have a family, you can’t deprive the children of their father. A woman endured everything, just to put the children on their feet, to raise them as worthy people. During the revolutionary events, which Ilyinichna did not want to understand, she was on the side of those who could protect her family. The civil war took away the son of Peter, and the life of his son Gregory broke. Ilyinichna died away, grief and longing for Grigory consumed her, so she did not wait for him from the war. This example shows that the mother's heart is very sensitive to the troubles and joys of children.
  9. Katerina Petrovna, heroine story by K. G. Paustovsky "Telegram", lived alone, she was fed only by hopes for the happiness of her daughter Nastya. Her mother did not want to interfere with her, she rarely wrote, but she constantly thought about Nastya, who lived and worked in Leningrad. The daughter had no time even to read her mother's letter, she was busy with work, not knowing that at that time Katerina Petrovna was dying. But the elderly woman went to another world without reproaches against the inattentive child, it was happiness for her to receive at least a short message from Nastya, and then die quietly. And so it happened. The image of a meek and kind mother arouses the reader's greatest respect. Looking at the heroine, we know the full power of maternal love.
  10. The image of mother's love is shown L. Ulitskaya in the story "Daughter of Bukhara". Oriental beauty Alya gave birth to a daughter with Down syndrome, then it was a completely unfamiliar and incomprehensible diagnosis, it was clear that little Milochka would never be an ordinary child. Ali's husband could not stand this circumstance, he left her alone with the child. But the mother did everything to adapt her daughter to life, to teach her to live independently. The woman fell ill with a fatal disease, she knew that her days were numbered, but she thought not about herself, but about Milochka. The mother got her daughter a job, married her off, and then simply left to die in order to protect her child from suffering. Only maternal love is capable of such supreme self-sacrifice.

We have analyzed many texts for preparing for the Unified State Examination in the Russian language and identified common patterns in the formation of problems. For each of them, we have selected examples from the literature. All of them are available for download in table format, link at the end of the article.

  1. For a loved one, it doesn’t matter how you look, how you behave, he will love you, no matter what. Mother's love is a great force. In the work D. Ulitskaya "Daughter of Bukhara" Alya, having learned about her daughter's terrible diagnosis, does not refuse her. On the contrary, a loving mother spends all her energy for the good of her child. Together they go through many hardships. Alone, left without a husband, Bukhara quits her job and gets a job at a school for retarded children in order to always be with Milochka. Alya soon falls ill and knows that it is fatal. However, she tries during this time to have time to arrange her daughter's life in the best possible way and does not calm down until Mila gets married. Only in her happiness does she find peace.
  2. Children are the most precious thing a woman has. Therefore, mother's love is omnipotent. Losing a child is the worst tragedy in a parent's life. In the epic novel L.N. Tolstoy "War and Peace" the grief of a woman who lost her son in the war is shown. Countess Rostova learns about the death of her beloved Petya and seems to lose her mind after that. Her heart foresaw the tragedy, she did not want to let her son go to work. But, due to his youthful years, Petya did not know what war was. He dreamed of becoming a hero. However, that was not destined to come true, and he dies in the first battle. Having received terrible news, the countess locks herself in a room, screams and calls her son. Her life is no longer important. In a month spent in this sorrow, a once beautiful woman becomes an old woman. And only by the efforts of her daughter does she leave the room. However, without her son, her life would never be the same.

The role of a mother in a child's life

  1. "Mom" is the first word that almost every child says. But not everyone is lucky to feel the caress and care of the one whom they so wanted to call to themselves. The protagonist poems by M.Yu. Lermontov "Mtsyri" was taken out of the house as a child. He knew that somewhere far away he had a family, he remembered how his mother nursed him. But the war deprived him of all this. The Russian officer took him away, but left him in the monastery when he was afraid that the prisoner would die without surviving the difficult road. Trying to fill the void in his heart, the grown-up Mtsyri escapes from his cold dungeon. He dreams of finding relatives, finally feeling warmth and care. However, realizing that the past cannot be returned, he dies. And yet, it was the memory of the parental home that made the young man come to know himself and rebel against the slow torture - imprisonment in the monastery walls. He gratefully accepts death, because life in slavery is much worse. The young man made this leap to freedom only through the power of remembering his origin, his family, his mother.
  2. Mother cannot be replaced. Just as you cannot give the same love that your loved one gives you. Yes, in the story Mark Twain "The Adventures of Tom Sauer" we see the life of a boy left without a mother. Yes, he is raised by his aunt. However, she will never be able to perceive Tom as her son, and the boy feels it. He runs away from home on purpose. The lack of maternal love also affects his character: a tomboy who does not feel cared for and is not ready to work for someone.
  3. Child's ingratitude

    1. The main character of the story E. Karpova "My name is Ivan" could not understand the power of mother's love in time. Seeds is wounded in the war, and after such a terrible event, he decides not to return home. Aged, blind and infirm, he tries to live out his warped life. Accidentally recognizing him by his voice on the train, Semyon's mother will rush to him, but he will push away the once dear woman and call himself by a different name. Only after a while, he realizes what happened. However, it will be too late. Only standing on the grave of his mother, he understands everything.
    2. Sometimes we realize the importance of a mother in our lives too late. I find confirmation of my thought in the work of K. G. Paustovsky "Telegram". The main character, Katerina Petrovna, has not seen her daughter for three years. Her mother wrote letters to her and dreamed of meeting her again. Nastya lived her own life, sometimes sent "dry" letters and some money. But Katerina Petrovna was glad of that too. Before her death, she still dreamed of seeing her daughter for the last time. But this was not destined to come true. Nastya learned about the poor condition of her mother only from Tikhon's telegram. However, it was already too late. The woman was buried by completely different people. And only at the grave of her mother Nastya realized that she had lost the most dear person in the world, without expressing her gratitude.
    3. Love for mother

      1. We must respect and appreciate what mothers do for us. They are always on our side and give us all their love. This is understood by the great poet S.A. Yesenin. In a poem "Mother's Letter" he refers to his "old lady" affectionately. The son wants to protect his own woman, who is worried about rumors and news about his bad behavior. He approaches this conversation with caution and with all care assures that there is nothing to worry about. He asks not to stir up the past and not to be sad about it so much. Yesenin understands that it is not easy for a mother to accept when evil things are said about her child. And yet he tries to assure his mother that everything will be fine.
      2. It is a joy for a mother to see her child happy. After all, it is she who is partially responsible for his fate. In a poem A. Pavlov-Bessonovsky "Thank you, Mom" The author understands how important a mother is in life. He begins his work with words of gratitude for life, for warmth and comfort, for love. The poet is so filled with a sense of gratitude that a distinct “thank you” is heard through every line of the poem.
      3. Excessive motherly love

        1. The upbringing of parents often affects the future fate of the child. Mom plays a very important role here. In comedy D.I. Fonvizin "Undergrowth" readers see an example where the mother's excessive love harms the son's future. Mitrofan is a kind of adult child. He is lazy, rude and selfish. The hero does not see the benefit in communicating politely with other people. The upbringing of the mother, who always indulged her son in everything, played a big role in this. She never forced him to do something, always protected him from danger, encouraged any of his undertakings. However, in the end, such an overly loving attitude turned against Mrs. Prostakova. At the end of the play, the boy abandons his own mother and pushes her away.
  1. (45 words) We see an example of maternal love in Gogol's story "Taras Bulba". When the sons return home, the mother rushes to meet them and even shames the father for immediately provoking young people into conflict. Although she risked arousing the anger of her husband, this did not stop her love.
  2. (36 words) Tolstoy's story "Childhood" describes the warm and tender relationship between Nikolai and his mother. The boy felt the selfless and strong love of his mother, so he was drawn to her with all his heart. And with it, his childhood dies.
  3. (41 words) Unfortunately, not everyone is lucky to feel motherly love. In Chekhov's story "Vanka", the hero becomes an orphan early. He has only vague memories of his mother, which is why he is so unhappy and lonely. Pelageya would be able to protect her son, no matter what it cost her.
  4. (34 words) In Mark Twain's story "The Adventures of Tom Sawyer" the hero was left without motherly love. This affected his character: he became a lazy and naughty boy. Obviously, without the warmth of maternal care, children grow up unhappy and abandoned.

Ilyusha is never allowed to play for a long time in the cold or in the sun, he is always well fed and well dressed. Oblomov's mother devoted all her time to caring for her son.
  6. (46 words) In one of the parts of Dostoevsky's novel "The Brothers Karamazov", called "Boys", we are talking about the trembling feeling of a widow for her son. The woman devoted herself to the child and raised a brave, strong and intelligent boy. Kolya loved his mother no less, although he was embarrassed to show his feelings like she did.
  7. (39 words) An example of motherly love can be seen in Dostoevsky's novel Poor People. The widow worked day and night to feed her daughter and bring her out into the world. Varenka forever remembered this maternal feat, so all her subsequent life she tried to be worthy of him.
  8. (35 words) In Solzhenitsyn's story "Matrenin Dvor", the heroine loved her adopted daughter like her own. She sacrificed all her possessions for her. For the sake of Kira, Matrena was ready for anything. No wonder even such a selfish girl burst into tears at the funeral of the benefactor.
  9. (48 words) In Lermontov's poem "Mtsyri" the hero did not know his parents, so his heart was as cold as the walls of his prison. He was able to overcome this cold and these walls only in order to find his family, to feel the warmth and care of his mother. Because of the unfulfillment of this dream, he dies.
  10. (49 words) In Karamzin's story "Poor Lisa" we see the daughter's exceptional gratitude for her mother's love. This is how we should thank our parents for taking care of us. Lisa does not spare herself and works to provide for her mother, only because the woman set such an example for her daughter throughout her life.
  11. Real life examples

    1. (45 words) I remember the story of the star of our class - an excellent student Lena. She was always ready for lessons, knew everything and even won regional competitions. But all her merits were invariably accompanied by maternal care: her mother constantly supported her. Thus, success in life begins with love in the family.
    2. (45 words) For as long as I can remember, my mother has always been there: at a performance in kindergarten, at the first line, at all school events. Feeling her participation, I became confident in myself. Everything worked out for me, and they praised me, but I knew who really needed to say “thank you”.
    3. (49 words) My friend was a very good athlete, but he always got too excited before competitions. I saw how hard his mother was with him at such moments. However, she did not give up and supported him with the same calmness in any case and under any circumstances. How I envied her tenacity!
    4. (47 words) Maternal love pushes a woman to a feat. During the war, my great-grandmother gave almost all the food to my grandmother, because the girl was born weak and sickly. Today, our heroine is no longer with us, but my grandmother still remembers her military, but happy childhood, which her mother saved and protected.
    5. (42 words) An example of motherly love for me has always been my grandmother. Father in his youth wanted to go to fight in Afghanistan, but his mother knew what was waiting for him there, so she pretended to be sick so that he would stay. As a result, he found himself in a peaceful life, and his grandmother waited for her grandchildren.
    6. (52 words) A real mother is not always the one who gave birth. My mother's friend took her daughter from the orphanage, but she fell in love with her so much, as not every mother can love. She took the baby to circles, developed it in every possible way, taught, and her Tanechka entered a good university on a budget. In many ways, this is the merit of her foster mother.
    7. (47 words) A mother's love will never betray. I have seen mothers forgive their children even crimes. For example, my neighbor forgave her son who beat her and robbed her. No one heard any reproach or complaint. I only remember how she was looking for a doctor who could help her son recover from alcoholism.
    8. (62 words) My friend went to discos. Her mother was very worried, but she understood that her daughter's growing up was inevitable. Therefore, she signed her number on her phone with a false name and asked her to call her as a friend if the girl was invited somewhere so that the attackers would not suspect anything, and in the meantime, her mother could find them and help her daughter out. A loving mother is capable of any tricks, just to save the child.
    9. (53 words) My mother also takes care of me. When I became very ill and was afraid to go to the hospital, she went to bed with me and also went on a diet so that I would not be offended. She also entertained me in every possible way, did not let me lose heart and get bored. I am very grateful to her for those hard days that became fun thanks to her.
    10. (39 words) My mother always supports me. For example, she learned English to help me do my homework. Maternal love made boring activities simple and exciting, I even fell in love with this language because my mother teaches it to me.
    11. Interesting? Save it on your wall!

The article by V. Sukhomlinsky deals with the problem of maternal love. This problem belongs to the category of eternal and always has been. The moral question that the author reflects on is very topical, because the mother, as in the Middle Ages, and today is the only person for a child who will never give, will not deceive.

The author believes that maternal love is strong, and also "there is no tenderness more tender than maternal caress and care, there is no anxiety more disturbing than sleepless nights and unclosed maternal eyes." I fully agree with the author, and, on

My opinion, mother - this is the person who at any moment of our life will console, understand and forgive. Her love is a great force that helps in the most difficult times. To support your position, you can bring a huge number of arguments. Let's consider them.

As a first proof, I want to give an example from the literature. In the work of A. N. Tolstoy "Russian Character", the main character Dremov, who was awarded a vacation, went home, introducing himself as a different person. But not having lived there even a day, he returned back to the unit. It seems to Dremov that he has become a stranger to his parents. But her mother's heart told her that he was coming

Son. Parents do not care if their son is handsome or not, the main thing is that he stays alive.

As the next proof, I want to cite the statement of a well-known person. Maxim Gorky said: “You can talk endlessly about mothering. So inevitable is the love that a mother bestows on her child. And most importantly - disinterested. " The words of the Russian writer only confirm that there is no love stronger than maternal.

Thus, indeed, a mother's love for her child is pure, real.
