Talking to children about where they came from can be an uncomfortable topic for parents. Many choose to avoid it altogether, and some wait for their children to become teenagers, but Justin Timberlake and Jessica Biel have a different way of approaching things.
They believe in being completely honest with their children about the whole thing, from a young age. They claim acting this way will decrease shame and guilt. What do you guys think? Would you take the same approach with your kids?
Don't Let It Go to Waste
We all know that kids can be wasteful little creatures, and as parents, there's not a lot we can do to control that. That's where Buffy the vampire slayer comes in! Sorry did we say, Buffy? We meant Sarah, the waste slayer!
When Sarah Michelle Gellar's children ask for food and then let it sit on the kitchen table, untouched, she makes them pay for it, literally! Gellar recommends taking a quarter out of their piggy bank, to teach the value of both food and money.
Spilling All of the Beans
While Brad and Angelina's marriage is sadly, over, we can't simply dismiss the twelve years they have spent together raising six children. Parenting this many children doesn't come easily and these two must have some helpful parenting hacks, right?
Well, Brad offers the following tip: Don't keep any secrets from your children, ever! Wow, that's not what we expected. While we appreciate the sentiment, it's difficult for us to envision this working out in either the children's or the parent's favor, what's your take on this controversial advice?
Breastfeeding? As If!
"Clueless" star Alicia Silverstone has a unique way of feeding her children, one that is both bizarre and well... natural. Apparently, she gets tips on how to nourish her young ones from the animal kingdom, well, from birds, specifically.
These winged mothers usually take to chewing food before they feed it to their hatchlings. And Silverston? Well, she does the same! She isn't shy about it either and has actually posted a video of herself feeding her son that way. While we applaud her connection to nature, we think she might have taken it too far, don't you?
No Microwaves Allowed
The Kardashians have managed to reach a cultural status that makes us all want to know everything about them, from their beauty routines to how they raise their children. Kourtney has recently said that when it comes to her babies, she prefers not to microwaves any of their food.
She has read that using this heating device can lead to negative health effects. While scientists say there's no problem with using it as long as you do so correctly, Kourtney favors being safe rather than sorry.
