Are Ashton Kutcher and Mila Kunis going too hard with their kids? They are not giving them Christmas gifts and don't plan to set up trust funds

Mila Kunis and Ashton Kutcher once disclosed that they don't give their two kids any Christmas gifts.

In light of Sean Diddy Combs' ongoing scandal, the Hollywood couple may soon renew their vows and even relocate to Europe. They have a 10-year-old daughter named Wyatt Isabelle and an 8-year-old son named Dimitri Portwood, as quoted in a report by The Express US.

The celebrities believe their children don't need extravagant presents, or presents at all, apparently, despite having an estimated $275 million in combined wealth.


According to Heart, Kunis stated in an interview with Entertainment Tonight in 2017 that she made the decision to celebrate the holidays in a different way so they didn't raise spoilt children, as reported by the Express US.

They don't give the kids presents at this time, she stated. This year, they're implementing it because it doesn't really matter when the children are less than one year old.

Their son would have been only a year old in 2017, while their daughter would have been around three. Wyatt was two years old when we celebrated Christmas the previous year, and it was too much. It was the grandparents, not them, who gave her anything. The single gift is no longer valued by the child. They're just expecting things; they have no idea what they're expecting.

She even advised her parents not to give her too many gifts over the holiday season. They would rather accept a charitable donation to the Children's Hospital, a pet, or anything else, she clarified.

This is not the first time Kunis has opened up about teaching their kids the value of money. She said her parenting style would include teaching them from a very early age that they are poor.

Kunis and Kutcher don't plan to set up trust funds for their kids in the future. They plan to teach their children work ethic and invest their cash in philanthropic-related things. The only way his two kids are getting money from him is if they plan to set up a business and present him with a good business plan.
