Katharine McPhee<\/a> thinks she has “more patience” as a parent than the generation before her.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Katharine McPhee has a different approach to parenting than her husband<\/p>\n

The 39-year-old actress has two-year-old son Rennie with David Foster<\/a>, 73, and explained that while she wants to bring him up to be “nice, polite and obedient”, she also favours a more modern approach to parenting that differs slightly from her husband. <\/p>\n

She told UsWeekly: “We don\u2019t put up with any BS. We don\u2019t want him to be an A-hole. He [needs] to be nice, polite, obedient, have his own voice and all that, but just [be] a good kid. We just have different ways of approaching the boundaries. I would say I\u2019m more of that newer generation of gentle parenting and explaining and having a bit more patience in just a new way than what I think the older generation was taught how to parent. When I have a different approach, [I] try to get him to be more like my approach without wanting to take away from how he wants to parent.”<\/p>\n

The former ‘Smash’ star – who shot to fame as the runner-up on ‘American Idol’ in 2006 and went on to star on Broadway in ‘Waitress’ – went on to describe changing a toddler as the “hardest” thing she has ever done and compared the experience to that of an exercise class because the little one is so strong. <\/p>\n

She added: “\u201cIt\u2019s so funny. Literally changing a fricking two-year-old is the hardest thing. First of all, he\u2019s so strong and it\u2019s hard. It\u2019s like an aerobics class. \u2026 I mean, he\u2019s never liked having his clothes changed or whatever. So sometimes it turns into a game, sometimes it turns into a struggle, but honestly, just who knew changing clothes would be so difficult<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
