Stephen Curry Discussed Parenting with Barack Obama

In 2020, Stephen Curry and Barack Obama sat down for a conversation when parenting came up as a topic. Barack Obama said, “Just by virtue of them being your kids, they are in the limelight in some ways. And you know Michelle and I understood kind of early on, that’s a double edged sword. We wanted them to have a normal experience of growing up and being able to make mistakes and not being scrutinized and commented on every single thing. Suddenly we’re living like normal middle class folks and the next thing you know there are butlers.”

The former President continued by saying, “We had to tell the staff at White House that the girls have to clean their rooms.” To which Steph interjected and said, “principles and discipline”.
