Happy Birthday!" His words reflect the pride and gratitude he feels as a parent.
In previous interviews, Carey has shared insights into her parenting philosophy, humorously referencing the film Mean Girls to illustrate her approach. In a conversation with Us Weekly in 2021, she stated, "I’m not a regular mom. I’m a cool mom." This sentiment highlights her desire to maintain a close and relatable relationship with her children, even acknowledging the challenges of parenting.
