Parental control

Australian handsome actor Hugh Jackman has two teenage kids. As a father, he is worried about them. He wishes that they grow up to be good individuals.

He does not want them to fall prey to any of the wrongs of society. Hugh Jackman had recently disclosed in an interview with Closer Magazine that he keeps a tab on his children’s online activities.

He says that he checks their phones regularly and randomly in order to ensure their safety from cyber-related problems.

Hugh Jackman, 53, and his lovely wife, Deborra-Lee Furness, 66 want to be extra cautious and check with whom their children interact on social media.

Hugh Jackman said:

“They are on social media but I tell them they can only follow people they know, and only people we know can follow them. Fans may look to befriend them because of who I am.”

Before the children were allowed to use social networking sites such as Instagram, Twitter, Facebook and the like, there were strict rules set for them.

Talking about it, Hugh Jackman said:

“I also tell them I am going to look at their phones. I do it randomly. They are young and they will make mistakes. But I don’t want them to make ones they are going to live with or years,” 

It is great that a busy actor such as Hugh Jackman does spare time out of his shoot schedules to be close to his kids and also monitor their activities. After all, it is for the kids’ benefits and security! A committed father, no doubt!
