There is so much more information coming to the Gen Z through their phones, internet, social media and streaming platforms. With so much content around, they are far more aware, evolved and mature than we were. They are so much more ahead even in terms of technology. To keep up with them, we need to keep a check on what is happening with the AI and tech. When we know their language, it gets much more easier to speak with them. Friendship is very important.' She added, 'I have my 18-year-old daughter and a 6-year-old son. These kids are very healthy. They workout, they eat right, and they work very hard. The way for them to do that is to create a healthy environment at home. They should never feel scared of their parents. I trust and respect our children. Gen Z are not rebellious. They don't argue back.' Counting Sunjay's kids with his second wife Karisma Kapoor, Priya Sachdev said, 'We have a 20-year-old, a 18-year-old, a 15-year-old and a 6-year-old.'

'The children have also requested me, saying, 'Mama doesn't have a plan… can we invite her?' Because we don't want her to feel [left out]… and I was like of course she's more than welcome because I'm confident about my relationship with my husband and she's in a very good space and she wants the children to bond with the father and so everyone's grown out of their own insecurities and issues. And we've had conversations, like it's not about us anymore, or our insecurities or our issues.' She added, 'Our two daughters are so close also, so besides our little boy, when he was born the two girls bonded and that created the bond between Kiaan as well. And my little boy Azarius is a big fan of his older brother. Samaira and Kiaan are also from a broken home, so, for them also, their EQ is very high.'
