The king of action-comedy, Jackie Chan, is a well-known name for his flair in acting and martial arts. Besides being a successful man in his career, Chan is a keeper of Chinese tradition and philosophy. The Rush Hour actor has been mindful to teach his son Jaycee about the values of relationships, time, and money. Chan even once declared how he wanted Jaycee not to depend on his $400 million worth of fortune and get his own way around the world.

In his autobiography, the actor logged all the nooks and crannies of his life. While talking about his fatherhood, the Vanguard actor once shared how he didn’t want his son to call him on Father’s day. What made him say so? Let’s check out.

Jackie Chan shared a priceless lesson with his son

In his book Never Grow Up, Chan chose to be an open chapter to his readers. While giving a glimpse into every trial, success, and even devastating phase of his life, the martial artist penned the on-and-off relationship with his son too. He shared a story where Jaycee called him to wish him a Happy Father’s Day. As a man of principle, Chan never believed that there can’t be one special day to remember one’s father. He wrote, “If someone means a lot to you, then every day is Valentine?s Day, Christmas, or Mother?s Day.”

However, when his son wished him, “Happy Father?s Day!?, Chan replied, “Don?t bother calling me on Father?s Day or my birthday, just call me more often!? Significantly, the martial artist-turned-actor had his way of honoring the value of his relationships. But unfortunately, Jaycee didn’t take it too well and hardly called his father from then on.
