Chewing His Food and Co-Sleeping — Alicia Silverstone Unveils Her Unique Parenting Secrets

The actress has appeared as a guest on the podcast. She revealed that she continues to share a bed with her 11-year-old son. Her non-traditional parenting approaches have garnered criticism from the public.

Keeping her baby close

The actress made an appearance as a guest on the renowned Ellen Fisher show. During their candid conversation, the women delved into parenting techniques. Alicia revealed that she continues to co-sleep with her sole 11-year-old son. She stressed the inherent naturalness of this choice. “I’m a loving mama. I believe in love, I believe in nature, and our society is scared of nature and love,” she articulated.

She’s a mama bird, quite literally.

When Bear was an infant, Silverstone pre-chewed food for him before feeding. “He literally crawls across the room to attack my mouth if I’m eating,” she shared, attaching a picture of them together on her blog when Bear had reached 10 months of age.

Raising her son as a vegan

Alicia is renowned for her strong advocacy of animal rights and commitment to veganism. She is also imparting a plant-based diet to her son. The pair enjoys engaging in joint cooking sessions, with Silverstone believing that this involvement helps Bear grasp a deeper comprehension of the origins and preparation of food.

Winning at co-parenting and spending every moment with her son as much as she can

The actress spends a lot of time with her child. They go on hikes and engage in sports activities together. Alicia proudly shared that in 9 years of her son’s life, he had never taken antibiotics even once. For a long time, the boy had long hair, but at some point, people started making fun of him, and he asked his mom for a haircut. The star wrote that she “misses his hair.” Alicia also admitted that occasionally they take baths together with her son.

By the way, despite the fact that close relations were maintained between the father and son after the divorce, the star is raising her son on her own. Similar to Ricky Martin, who became the sole father of four children and openly admits to being happier than ever before.

Some celebrities, like Alicia, often talk about their children on social media and post family photos, including breastfeeding pictures. Here are a few such examples.
