Ohanian “wanted to shield” his daughters from the spotlight
In light of the difficulties of growing up in the spotlight, Alexis Ohanian recently shared his attempts to make sure his kids have a strong sense of self-worth independent of their parents’ notoriety. Just a few months ago, the 40-year-old highlighted that he wants his kids to feel important for their own traits and accomplishments.
He stated, “The thing I know I wanted to shield them from was this idea that they are special just because of who their parents are. They are special, but for other reasons. Reasons of their own accounting and agency… This is one of those, ‘You’ve got to wait. Check back in 20 years’ things, but we’re trying.” Not only that, he clearly stated that he wants to protect them from the idea that their value comes only from their celebrity ancestry.
