I may not be able to educate my children about sex: Shahrukh

In the world where everyone is preaching to be open about sex, Shah Rukh Khan just made a confession on how he hesitates talking about sex with his children Aryan Khan and Suhana Khan.

Yes, although he doesn’t see that as a drawback for he believes his children are perhaps more educated about sex than him, but in this tell-all interview with Bombay Times, Shah Rukh spoke in length about the kinds of conversations he has with his children as he said, ‘My mother gave me sex education classes (laughs). For me it’s the other way, do I sit with my kids down and talk to them?

No, I am extremely friendly with my children and if I am not being too presumptuous I think it’s because of the relationship that I share with my father. Also, I am personally very shy so I may not be able to educate my children about sex, so I don’t bring that up.

Sometimes while watching film together, I feel that they are perhaps a little more educated about it than I am. Maybe, I should take a little class from them.’ Makes sense, right?

However, talking about his policy of upbringing his children, Shah Rukh added, ‘I have a simple philosophy towards my children or the people who I love. Two aspects I never question. First is their action which I believe is all good. Second is their ability to say, ‘I don’t know’, it’s good enough answer. In schools when you are asked a question and you say you don’t know, it’s often humiliating.

It’s a child’s right to not know. And even an adult’s right. At 51, it’s my right to not know and my self confidence is really high even though you ask me something and I don’t know it.’
