Isha Koppikar revealed that from Monday to Friday, her daughter is not allowed to use the phone at all. The phone is only given after school on Friday, and she can use it over the weekend. This rule has been followed for years, and Isha believes it helps maintain discipline and balance in her child’s life.
Sharing a sweet memory, Isha Koppikar said that when her daughter was around eight years old, she once asked her, “Mumma, you are always on your phone.” Isha said that the question made her think. She replied to her daughter, “I earn through my phone. Do you?” With that simple answer, she explained the difference between work and timepass. For Isha, the phone is a work tool, but for children, it can easily become a distraction.
One interesting point she shared was about social media. Isha Koppikar said that her daughter is not on any social media platform. She does not have an account anywhere. However, she is aware of what social media is and understands how it works. Isha feels that there is a right age for everything, and social media can wait.
The actress also spoke about the importance of parents leading by example. She admitted that children observe everything. If parents are always busy on their phones, children will question it. That is why she tries to explain clearly when she is working and when she is spending quality time with her family.
Isha Koppikar believes that setting clear rules from the beginning makes things easier later. Instead of suddenly stopping phone use, she created a routine that lets her daughter know exactly when she will have access to it. This avoids fights and confusion at home.
Through her honest sharing, Isha Koppikar showed that even in today’s digital world, it is possible to create healthy boundaries. She balances her busy career in films and politics while ensuring her child grows up with discipline and strong values.
Her simple rule of “no phone from Monday to Friday” is a reminder that sometimes small steps can make a big difference in parenting.
