Bethenny Frankel thinks raising her 7-year-old daughter Bryn is like house breaking a puppy.
“Kids are like dogs,” the“Real Housewives of New York” star told People. “They have to know where the wee-wee pads is. ‘This is where you pee and his is where you don’t pee.’”
The Skinnygirl mogul, 46, also added that she’s a strict mom.
“I don’t negotiate with terrorists,” she quipped. “I’m liberal and I like to spoil, but I lay down the hammer when it’s time.”
Above all, she’s got nothing but positive things to say about her daughter with ex-husband Jason Hoppy.
“My daughter’s extremely strong-willed and sassy and funny, and likes to beat a joke into the ground,” she said. “Which makes me realize that’s my kid.”
And while motherhood isn’t easy, Frankel prides herself on not needing a nanny.
“When I am with my daughter, I’m 100 percent with her. So when I work, I work. And when I’m with my child, I’m with my child. I spend a lot of intense time alone with my kid,” she explained.
