Actor Jeff Goldblum, 71, has revealed his unconventional parenting philosophy aimed at making his children more “self-sufficient”. The actor emphasised the importance of teaching them the value of hard work and independence. In a podcast with Bruce Bozzi, Goldblum said, “You’ve got to row your own boat. It’s an important thing to teach kids. I’m not going to do it for you. And you’re not going to want me to do it for you.”

He underscored his belief in the merit of learning to navigate life’s challenges without a safety net. Goldblum’s approach to parenting is rooted in a desire for his children—Charlie, 8, and River, 6, to find their passion and pursue what they love. The actor, married to Canadian dancer Emilie Livingston, 41, became a father later in life and regards this timing as beneficial, allowing him to impart meaningful wisdom and values to his sons.
