He loved his wife and his sons very much. He named his sons by beautiful and sonorous names. He dreamed that when his sons grow up, they will become his strong support.

For the first time he married Vera Volkova in his youth, but his wife left him. She was frightened because Aimautov was persecuted by the powers. There is a version that Vera Aleksandrovna decided not to expose herself any more to danger and left her husband and sons and after one of these interrogations went to Orenburg.

Life scattered the children of the repressed writer in different places. The eldest son Bektur felt hardships and suffering a lot.

As a child, Bektur drew well and also excelled in physics and mathematics. He was taught by Gulnara Dulatova, the daughter of Mirzhakyp Dulatov at school

When Bektur and Zhanak were small, the famous Mashhur Zhusup Kopeev came to them, stroked their heads, caressed them and knew their condition. There is a poem by Mashkhur Zhusup Kopeev, which begins with the words “Zhusupbek, Bektur, Zhanak, God bless you!.”

In large cities, mass schools of FZO (factory training) were opened. My stepmother called me and said: “Times changed. It’s time to take care of yourself and to begin to work. You need to get an education. Taksira Baktygereevna is going to Ufa tomorrow. You will also go to Ufa. She will help you get into the FZO. Here was a danger of persecution and so I went to Ufa.
