"I think you let him know that, for his generation, to be a true supporter of women’s equality ― it’s not enough anymore to be learning about it. You have to be doing it."
ON SOCIAL MEDIA
In an interview with Parents, Curry talked about setting limitations on sharing their lives on social media and how they go about it. He shared:
"We keep certain moments to ourselves, so it’s a memory just for us."
ON WHAT MATTERS THE MOST
In an interview with Popsugar, the basketball ace once opened up about the most important thing that he has come to learn about parenthood throughout the years and said:
"Quality time is important and that’s when you get the most joy. We really try to protect that at all costs."
ON WHAT HE WANTS HIS KIDS TO LEARN
Curry wants his children to know they are unique in their own way. He believes each of them has something special within them. Speaking to Popsugar on the topic, he shared:
"There’s something about them that God’s put in their life that’s going to make them stand out, so embrace whatever that is. As they go through life, that’s hopefully what sparks their success."
