Twinkle Khanna frequently discusses parenting in her interviews and postings on social media. In a recent interview, the former actress, who is now an author, opened out about how most parents “just wing it” and discussed her children Aarav and Nitara. Being a parent “should require some prior preparation,” according to Twinkle, who is married to star Akshay Kumar, much as getting a driving license requires instruction and passing a test.
Twinkle, who recently made headlines for traveling in an automobile in Mumbai with her daughter Nitara, also discussed her parenting style. She asserted that the best approach to raise children is to “set an exemplary example.” Twinkle Khanna claimed in an interview last year that she has always paid for the schooling of her children Nitara and Aarav and has never shared a bank account with her husband Akshay.
When asked about there being so much focus on raising daughters right, and not enough on raising sons the correct way, Twinkle told Harper’s Bazaar India in a recent interview, “I did write a column about how to raise our sons the right way and not just focus on raising our daughters. If you ask me, just the way you have to train and get a license to drive after passing a test, being a parent should also require some prior training. All of us are just winging it and hoping for the best at this point.”
Further asked about the correct way to raise children according to her, Twinkle said ‘leading by example’ was the approach she would suggest. When asked how the next generation could be raised differently to bring a change in society, Twinkle said, “You are asking me these questions as if I am an expert. Perhaps it would be better to wait and see how my children turn out before I start dispensing advice.”
Twinkle made her acting debut in 1995 with Barsaat, and she gave up acting after the release of Love Ke Liye Kuch Bhi Karega in 2001. With Mrs Funnybones, Twinkle made her writing debut in 2015. She then followed it up with the fiction book Pyjamas Are Forgiving and the anthology of short stories The Legend Of Lakshmi Prasad, both of which were published in 2017.
