Kuleba shares why he raises his son, a soldier, and daughter, a gentle soul, using different parenting methods.

The former Foreign Minister of Ukraine, Dmytro Kuleba, is a father of two and has opened up about his relationships with them for the first time in a long while. He discussed this topic in a podcast with Yelena Kravets titled "Let's Talk at Home," where he was accompanied by his 13-year-old daughter.

According to him, his parenting methods vary significantly between his children. He raises his 13-year-old Lyuba with a more gentle and thoughtful approach, while he treats his 18-year-old Yegor as if he were in the military. The young man is already immersed in military studies and is undergoing relevant training while also attending university.

"My relationship with my son is akin to that of a military relationship, while with my daughter, it’s like being with a princess. Two distinct models. Especially Yegor – he is deeply involved in military matters, studying at university, but also undergoing serious military training. He lives in this world: his gatherings, friends, some of whom, unfortunately, have died. This undoubtedly influences the kind of relationship we have. As for Lyuba – it’s all about love; she’s tender. Thus, the relationships are accordingly different," Dmytro Kuleba explained.

The diplomat’s daughter shared that she is currently trying to master a new hobby—singing—and is even giving her first concerts. It all began in her childhood when she participated in a choir and later in opera. Now, however, things have changed a bit.

"An opera singer brought me on stage and said that I would sing like that. Eventually, I transitioned to pop music, and now I have a vocal school. I have concerts every month, and Dad attends all of them," said Lyuba Kuleba.

It’s worth noting that on November 27, Dmytro Kuleba spoke about his preferences in movies and series and shared why he finds political themes uninteresting. According to the former Foreign Minister, he enjoys watching content that allows the viewer to relax their mind and simply enjoy the visuals. In contrast, most political films are not very realistic.
