Bezos and Mackenzie had four children, three of whom were born to them and one of whom was adopted jointly. Although the two are divorced, they retain the common ideas they have agreed to in the past in raising and educating their children. Not long ago, after Musk's distinctive parenting was revealed, many media also turned to see how Bezos and MacKenzie did it, which is really different in comparison, look at the MSN website report on May 8.
The Bezos insist on never speaking ill of each other in the face of their children, they never quarrel in front of the children before divorce, and after the divorce, they also have one, do not say bad things about each other when talking about each other, on the contrary, they are explaining the reasons for the divorce in front of the children, and the divorce does not affect the relationship between the children and the parents, even if they have a new partner, they still do not give any bad comments to the ex.
Bezos has always taught children that hard work is more important than innate talent. He thinks it's really easy for a talented young man to be proud of his talent: 'I'm really athletically talented,' or 'I'm really smart,' or 'I'm good at math.'" But none of this will directly lead people to success, only hard work. Bezos's four children are very hard at school, and unlike Musk's children in several online schools, they all receive the most formal education, and his eldest son is about to enter his father's alma mater, Princeton University.
Bezos's children were encouraged to do things on their own with various tools at an early age, and Bezos allowed his children to play with knives from the age of four and power tools from the age of seven. He believes that children from elementary school use a variety of tools that can teach them to use both hands and brains, self-reliance, and understanding where and how risks are to be avoided. This is another example of Bezos's dedication to traditional ideas compared to Musk's encouragement of children to play computer games.
Bezos and Mackenzie have been trying to keep their children out of the spotlight. Apart from the fact that the eldest son is an adult and can decide to appear in public on his own, there is little information about the other two sons they share and a daughter adopted from China. They do this because they don't want their children to feel different from their peers, and they don't have to take on the pressure of celebrity children to have a healthy mental state until adulthood.
Overall, Bezos's parenting philosophy is somewhat the same as Musk's, such as encouraging children's creativity and hard work, but more differently, Bezos's approach is more traditional, and it is all in agreement with MacKenzie, while Musk's parenting is basically a one-word. As for which of their parenting methods is better, it probably won't be known until the children grow up.
