“They Must Be in So Much Pain”: Arnold Schwarzenegger’s Daughter Revealed the Golden ‘Criticism Terminating’ Technique She Received From Her Parents

Arnold Schwarzenegger established himself as a legendary bodybuilder by winning the Mr. Olympia title 7 times. He rose to fame when he won Mr. Olympia for the first time in 1970. Since Arnold became a public figure, the media cameras never stopped following him. As a result, his personal life was always in the public eye.

Arnold married Maria Shriver in 1986, and they had four children together. Their son Patrick Schwarzenegger is a Hollywood actor as well as a businessman. Whereas one of their daughters, Katherine, is an established author and has published three books on self-help. However, fame was not new to them, as they had already been in the spotlight since childhood.

Katherine speaks about how she handles criticism

People often consider fame and popularity glamorous, but it has a dark side. The dark side involves criticism, which can affect the public figure personally. If not taken in the right way, it could be very unhealthy for the mental health of that person. That is why it is vital to know how to handle criticism. For Arnold Schwarzenegger‘s daughter, Katherine’s lessons of criticism came from her parents.

According to Katherine, one of the most important things she learned from her parents is to handle criticism. Speaking on the golden ‘criticism terminating’ techniques that she learned from her parents, she said, “My mom always said to me when I was growing up that when people write those things or say those things, they must be in so much pain, to be able to say that or to write that and to try to have empathy for whatever it is that they might be going through that you don’t know about.”

In an interview with Yahoo, Arnold revealed that Katherine’s marriage to Chris Pratt shocked him. He believed that his daughter would never marry an actor. He recalled when Katherine was a child; she did not enjoy going to movie sets even though his other children enjoyed the experience thoroughly.
