Christina Ricci. The Yellowjackets star, 43, is mom to two, and it turns out that at least one child rearing lesson learned with son Freddie, 8, didn't apply to baby daughter Cleo, 15 months. Christina recently told Kelly Ripa and Ryan Seacrest on Live! With Kelly and Ryan that little Cleo was precocious in a way her big brother wasn't.

People mention it to him, clearly. I have to then explain to him what it is, and we've shown him movies. " More recently, Freddie has progressed to even more sophisticated inquiries.
"He's asking questions like, 'Mom, is that racist?' Or, 'Mom, is that okay for women?' " the former child star told The Guardian. "He's got this whole thing about not calling objects – like boats – she. He'll correct me: 'Women are not objects.
