After the birth of their first daughter, the couple announced at a public event letter that most of his money would be given to charity instead of his children.

‘How do you educate children when you can really give them anything, materially, to punish them?’ King asked, to which the Facebook founder replied: “Well, I guess we don’t give them everything in the first place.

‘Lots of love. Happy to share that Max and August will have a new baby sister next year,” she wrote when announcing her third child in September.

“That’s an important piece, but they also have responsibilities.”

He also revealed on Lex Fridman’s podcast to sit down with his daughters every night before bed to discuss the things he feels are ‘most important in life,’ including taking care of yourself and your health, valuing your friends and family, and achieving goals. your future goals.

He also mentioned that August has been ‘coding’ with his father since he was ‘the three-year-old’.
