Stellan Skarsgård Explains Why He Won't Give His Children Parenting Advice

He says advice leaves parents unfairly responsible for their children's outcomes.

Overview

  • Speaking to PEOPLE at the Directors Guild of America in West Hollywood on Nov. 5, the 74-year-old detailed his stance during promotion for Sentimental Value.
  • He described advice as a “lose-lose situation,” saying success would be credited to him and failure would be blamed on him.
  • He is a father of eight, six of whom work as actors, and he said his favorite part of being a grandfather is watching how different each child’s personality is.
  • He appears as Gustav Borg in Neon’s Sentimental Value, which is in theaters now.
  • He previously told Vulture that his 13-year-old son Kolbjörn had been called a “nepo baby” at school, a personal account that resurfaced in recent coverage.
