Shahid Kapoor is one of the coolest parents in Bollywood. The doting father loves his dear angel Misha Kapoor to the fullest and, recently when he talked about parenting skills, we couldn’t agree more.
On Tuesday, Shahid was at a UNICEF charity event for child education. Speaking at the event he said, “I have just had a baby and I understand how important it is for parents to see that their child is getting the right kind of education, this is a great initiative.”
On being asked as to whether he expects Misha to become a dancer and an actor just like him, Shahid replied “My parents would tell me when I was small, that beta you do what you want to do, it is not necessary for you to do what we do. I didn’t have any restrictions and expectations from their side.
Shahid went on to say that he wants to see Misha happy doing what she wants to do.
“I hope she (Misha) does whatever makes her happy, so when she was dancing with a smile on her face, I was happy that she was happy, if she is happy doing something else, I get happy seeing her do that! My happiness is in her happiness, the 36-year-old actor added.
Further, he said that parents should not pressurise their children with their expectations.
“As parents we should support, love and encourage our children. At times parents tend to pressurise their kids with their expectations, and I make sure I don’t do it”, Shahid Kapoor stated.
