While celebrities may have lives the rest of us can only imagine, it turns out the playing field becomes pretty level when it comes to raising teenagers.
Celebrity parents deal with all the same happy chaos, rebellious moments and drama as everyday moms and dads – even down to the classic debate with their kids as to whether they are “cool parents,” actress Molly Ringwald explained toPEOPLE Now.
“I think I’m a cool mom,” theBreakfast Clubactress said. “I think if you talk to my 15-year old, I don’t necessarily know if she would say that.”
However, Ringwald, 50, admitted that her daughter, Mathilda, 15, did in fact give her a high compliment that could qualify her as a “cool mom.”
“She told me that I was born out of a tornado of flowers,” Ringwald said. “Meaning that I am very artistic, that was her way of expressing it.”
The actress is also mom to twins Adele and Roman, 9.
Parents often deal with their teenagers acting rebellious, something actress Marcia Gay Harden is taking on with her children Eulala, 20, and twins Julitta and Hudson, 15.
“I’m not a super restrictive parent,” Harden toldPEOPLE Now.“I want them to be free to make their own mistakes, but I do want to guide the mistakes a little bit.”
“I saw her do one take, and I was like, she’s fine, I’m leaving,” he toldPEOPLE Now. “She’s just such an impressive kid to me-or young adult. I’m sure I just ruined everything!”
