Ashton Kutcher and Mila Kunis introduce new and strict traditions for kids; skip Christmas gifts and trust funds

Ashton Kutcher and Mila Kunis, a famous Hollywood couple worth $275 million, have opened up about a new Christmas tradition they’ve started with their children.
Ashton and Mila, who are possibly planning a vow renewal and a move to Europe due to Sean "Diddy" Combs' ongoing scandal, are parents to 10-year-old Wyatt Isabelle and 8-year-old Dimitri Portwood. Despite their wealth, they believe their children don't need extravagant or any gifts at all.
In a 2017 interview with Entertainment Tonight, Mila shared that she wanted to handle holidays in a way that wouldn’t make her kids feel spoiled. She said, "Our tradition is no gifts for the kids. We're starting it this year because, when they're under one, it doesn’t really matter."
The actress explained the issue, saying that kids no longer appreciate a single gift and start expecting more without understanding its value. She has also spoken openly about teaching their children the value of money. On the Kyle and Jackie O Show, she emphasized that, despite their wealth, she wants them to understand that "Mommy and Daddy may have a dollar, but you're poor." Reflecting on their own humble beginnings, she added that both she and Ashton grew up in poverty and are self-made, fully aware of the worth of money.
Staying true to their values, Kunis and Kutcher have decided not to set up trust funds for their children.
Ashton shared their unique parenting philosophy on Dax Shepard’s podcast, revealing that their children are unaware of their privileged lifestyle and he plans to keep it that way. He emphasized that they won’t be setting up a trust fund, instead choosing to donate their wealth to charity. Kutcher added that if his kids have a strong business idea, that’s when they might receive financial support from him.
Kutcher and Kunis emphasize the value of earning success through hard work and determination. Despite amassing significant wealth throughout their careers, they believe that simply giving their children money could undermine their drive to pursue their own ambitions. As a result, the couple intends to primarily direct their fortune toward charitable causes.
That said, they are not entirely opposed to providing financial support to their children. Kutcher has expressed that if their kids present a well-thought-out business idea or a project they are passionate about, the parents would consider investing. However, the children must show commitment, responsibility, and a strong work ethic to earn this support.
Meanwhile, the couple has been in the news over Kutcher's alleged past with Sean Diddy Combs, who is currently under investigation on charges of sex trafficking.
