After first becoming a parent, Roberts noted an exponential decrease in free time. "But it’s such a terrific trade-off," she added. "I don’t have time to get a pedicure, but I sure am happy. Who cares if your feet look bad?” As she came into her own parenting style, she knew she wanted to raise independent kids. "I don’t want them to have some of the struggles that I had," she explained, adding, "But at the same time, you do need to know how to make your bed and do your laundry and make one meal. These are important life skills. They have to run their own race. They have to have their own experience." The happy family / Instagram via E!
