Actress Alicia Silverstone is well-known. She originally gained notoriety
in the 1990s after making her acting debut in the thriller "The Crush" in
1993. The following year, she won an MTV Movie Award for her performance.
It's hardly unexpected that she quickly rose to fame among teenagers,
especially after taking part in Aerosmith's "Cryin" music video.
Of course, no one could forget Silverstone's performance as Cher Horowitz,
the title character in the 1995 adolescent comedy "Clueless." Following its
initial popularity, the movie went on to become a cult favorite and is now
regarded by many fans as one of the greatest teen movies ever made. The film
also starred Paul Rudd, Stacey Dash, Donald Faison, and Brittany Murphy in
addition to Silverstone.
Silverstone continues to play important parts after becoming even more
well-known thanks to "Clueless," including her portrayal as Batgirl in the
1997 film "Batman & Robin." She has continued to make appearances in
films, television series, and even plays into the early 2000s.
In addition to her acting prowess, Silverstone is renowned for her
charitable efforts, campaigning, and parenting style. Silverstone, a single
mother, has always tried to raise her kid with the freedom to be true to
himself, to make his own choices, and to be himself.
Silverstone gained notoriety when her son, who was 9 at the time, chopped
off his long hair. Even though the actor's son is now 11 years old, he still
shares a bed with Silverstone. While some could claim that she is
overparenting, Silverstone claimed that she is only doing what comes
naturally.
Since he was a little child, Silverstone's son, Bear, has long, gorgeous
hair. He loved it and decided to keep it that way as he grew up; it became
his trademark. But when he was nine years old, Bear made the decision to
shorten his long brown hair.
The "Clueless" actress captured the moment on camera and subsequently
shared it on Instagram. What are we doing right now, Silverstone questioned
her kid in the video. "Cutting my hair," the bear said. Then, she questioned
him, "Why?" He said, "I have no idea," which is probably a statement we have
all heard before. However, there are moments when you just have to act even
if you have no idea! He continued by saying that he was both very happy and
quite anxious about the big shift.
The adoring mother continued by describing Bear's enjoyment of having long
hair:
"He liked it so much that he decided to keep it for as long as he did!! He
only desired to experiment. Although I have a hunch he'll eventually find a
way to grow his hair out again. However, I will always back my dear,
thoughtful, and priceless young child in all of his choices.
Silverstone said in her essay why Bear desired a new hairdo. Was that his
choice? Yes. Did I cry as I saw him get it sliced inside? Maybe, but did I
make an effort to stop him? Not even for a second," she penned.
As long as Bear stays true to himself and does what makes him happy,
Silverstone and Bear's father, her ex-husband Christopher Jarecki, fully
support his choices.
"No matter what, I will always support my wonderful, caring, and precious
little kid in any decision he makes," Silverstone said.
On "The Ellen Fisher Podcast" in July 2022, Silverstone made a further
discussion about her parenting philosophy and the way she and her
11-year-old son share a bed. She said, "Bear and I still sleep together." I
truly don't care if I get in trouble for stating that, though.
Bed-sharing "may be one of those methods," according to Dr. Craig Canapari,
who told Good Morning America that there are "many different ways to
properly raise your child." That this parenting approach would be
"unhealthy, hazardous, or produce any psychological disorders" was not
supported by any research, in his opinion.
The parenting style of Silverstone, according to GMA, is attachment
parenting. This parenting style, which emphasizes a loving relationship, is
said to be best for producing "confident, autonomous, and sympathetic
children," according to WebMD.
Being a mother is easy for Silverstone, who claimed that she is just
"following nature." She clarified:
"I'm a mother by nature. I'm also a devoted mother. And while our culture
is afraid of love and nature, I also believe in both of them.
The actress said, "If you put your infant out there in any type of wild
area where there are animals, your baby is going to get devoured. Being
there is not optimal for the infant.
Despite some claims to the contrary, it is obvious that Silverstone is a
loving mother who cares deeply for her son Bear. She is just parenting in a
way that works for their family.
