While he plans to shower his children with love and provide emotional stability, Rocky also acknowledged that his kids will be much more fortunate than he was growing up in Harlem, New York. Still, he made clear that despite the fame and riches of their parents, his children will not depend entirely on their privilege, adding that he wants to “keep them humble.”
“I want to make sure that I teach my boys discipline and keep them grounded, keep them humble as much as possible,” he said. “Because they could be considered nepo babies. I got to make sure they chill with their cousins, the rough cousins that’s going keep them on their toes.”
