Carson Daly talks to his kids ‘like they are 30 years old’

OHMYGOSSIP — Carson Daly talks to his children about being in couples therapy.
The ‘Today’ co-host – who has Jackson, 15, Etta, 11, London, nine, and Goldie, four, with wife Siri Pinter – believes in speaking openly with his kids and is happy to let them know that marriage is “hard” and takes work.
He told People magazine: “I’ve always talked to them like they were 30 years old. I’ve always intellectually given them the benefit of the doubt to rise the intellectual occasion when I’m kind of kicking the knowledge and I do it a lot.
“My wife and I have gone through couples therapy where they’ve walked in the room on Zoom and it’s not like I hide it. ‘Hey, what are you guys doing?’ ‘Oh, we’re doing, mom and I do our couples therapy. We get to do it once a week.’
“ ‘Marriage is hard. This helps mom and dad out.’ That’s how I talk to my kids.”
The 51-year-old presenter has discussed the importance of looking after mental health with his children for their “whole lives”.
He said: “Their whole lives, they know two types [of health], there’s physical health and mental health.
“If you hurt your wrist at school, you go to the doctor. And if you’re feeling sad and you really don’t know why or if there’s something going on in your mind, you’re having a hard time grappling with, you talk to somebody about that too.”
Carson first up about his own struggles with anxiety and panic disorder on ‘Today’ in 2018 and he found that after speaking out, he was approached by others keen to share their own stories.
He said: “People just kept coming up to me and kind of winking and like, ‘Hey man, thanks for talking about that panic attack. I have them too.’
“I think people have this idea that people who had mental health issues, at least at the time, they were somehow reserved for really a certain sect of society that was in the shadows, if you will.
“There’s tons of sort of high-functioning versions of people who are struggling in silence.
“I think maybe for a moment in time I represented that and I was really glad to, to be honest with you, I never regretted it.”
