Jessica explained, “I’ve had it, I’ve had enough. And they all come down on me. Every time they ask me, ‘Mom can I download this app? Mom, can I get on the Facetime? Mom, I’m hungry. Is this outfit okay? Can you help me?'”

The founder of the Honest Company also added that she is trying to help get her husband to fulfill the kids’ demands. However, she revealed that her husband would often disappear in his man cave.

The actress said she starts nagging and then her kids tell her that her tone is mean. She further shared, And then Cash is like, ‘I guess I’m just going to go back into my main room,’ And I’m like, ‘What else is new?’ Just disappearing for me to deal with everything.”

Then you’re going to get your butt to bed right after that and that’s just the way it’s going to be. I don’t know what to say, I’m not perfect. You’re going to eat dinner late.'”
