Some scholars described his childhood life so: "fishing, hunting, hunting dogs before the rush, the family atmosphere is obviously rugged"; and that "Castro reason for the constitutional system, bureaucracy and any kind of formal Lack of interest in formalities, may be traced to his father's hostile attitude towards any legal form, whether property or personal relations. " However, in 1936, the Spanish civil war broke out, Castro's father and his "San Diego school where the Spanish teacher", are Franco's supporters. Such an environment did not prevent Castro's political stance from being left-even though Castro did not admit that he had "made the father's counter-revolution" and only admitted that he was "anti-authoritative." For his future left-wing political stance, Castro thinks, with his "landlord's son, not grandson" has a great relationship.
