                     Early Childhoodin

      In January 1786 . Simon was two years old , his father died of tuberculosis , and so Dona Concepcion was as head of household , effectively ensuring the interests  of the family until his death .                                                         

 However , the responsibilities caused his health , too sick tuberculosis , decayed rapidly and , in the opinion of medical historians , and then you may suffer the Bolivar tuberculous primary infection with a type of tuberculosis that goes  unnoticed while the body's defenses  are favorable.

 Concepcion died on July 6, 1792, when Simon was nine, but taking care to make a will in which I decided who should take care of their children.

 The brothers became Bolivar custody of his grandfather , Don feliciano Palacios , when he assumed the role of tutor felt so sick I started to cook their will to appoint  a replacement as gyardian of her grandchildren and decided ro ask them to review respect their will.

 Simon was entrusted to his uncle Don Esteban Palcios y Blanco , but as he was in Spain remained in the custody of Don Carlos Palacios i Blsnco , another of his uncles , who apparently was a man she did not get  along and was rough , hard character , narrowminded , who are frequently absent from Caracas to meet their properties and therefore used to leave his nephew attended by servants and going on your own to public school Caracas.

   References Bolivar left in his correspondence make suppose that his childhood was happy , safe , surrounded by strong emotions and fond memories with prominet  and influential relatives in an aristocratic environment and fond memories  with prominent that and influential relatives in an aristocratic environment and generally in an environment that provided her emotional balance , love and affection .

   In this sense there are some stories that were popular in venezuela who had Bolivar as  a troubled child because the romantic writers considered essential attribute an untamed childhood believing  , according to the fashion of the time , I could not get an exceptional man of a child average but has demonstarted that these stories were invented  and introduced in the stories of history by Aristides Rojas , considered an axcellent storyteller but I often used his imagination to lack of documents to prove the veracity of yheir atories.

           

                Education

Faced with the prospect of livinbg with his master , Simon escaped from the house of his uncle the July 23, 1795, to take refuge in his sister Maria Antonieta , who held temporary custody, until the court case was resolved in the Real hearing that returned to Caracas Don Calos , custody of Simon.

     Simon tried to resist but was forcibly removed from his sister's house and carried on wings for a slave to the house of his master.

    Once there , the conditions under which the master lived with Rodrigues were not ideal , they had to share the space with 20 people in a house unfit for it , and so Simon escaped from there a couple of times on that was back by court order.

    Before long , Rodrigues resigned from teacher to go to europe and the Royal Audiencia of Caracas determined that Simon was transferred to the Academy of Marth , led by father andujar and  working that Simon was transferred to the Academy of Math , led by father Andujar and working at his uncle Carlos.
