During a chat with Hauterrfly, Madhu stated that both of her kids, Priyanka and Siddharth Chopra had three basic rights, adding, "Both my kids had the right of thought, right of speech, and the right of expression. We used to ask them first, then share how we feel".

Madhu asserted that even when her kids were younger and they came back from school, "we used to ask them first about what happened, then we used to discuss it, or advice them".

'My kids had certain limitations': Madhu

Madhu Chopra further stated that due to this practice, the kids grew up to be confident individuals who had the ability to articulate their thoughts and be self-assured. She continued, "What happened with this was they became confident, they were never scared of speaking, at least in front of their parents. Then it became a part of their nature. They became expressive".

Stating that the household was quite liberal, Madhu further added that kids also had certain limitations as she said, "Tantrums were never allowed, raised voices were never allowed, abuse was never allowed. With these things banned, they could express themselves".

She wrote in the caption, "Our next chapter begins now, and our baby is truly a bad**s. Let’s get it MM! Mommy and Daddy love you."
