She articulated the importance of maintaining a positive public image, stating that as a celebrity, criticism of her parenting choices can be particularly harsh.
During her interview with Thelma Wright on the popular talk show Diva Doc, the 47-year-old actress explained her structured schedule, noting that she is typically free on Mondays. This allows her to dedicate quality time to her children, including Maxin and her adopted daughter, ensuring they feel her presence and guidance.
"I am Leo, August 15. I look at things, towards them before I move. The reason is that I have raised lots of children with my five children. My husband has two children, and I raised them at ages three and four. Now they are fifteen and sixteen. My sister's and brother’s children."
"Before I had Maxin, my children would say, You see your bed, mummy is coming. You see the way your room is untidy, mummy is coming oh."

"One thing I do is that I am very strict. It is logic. When you wake up, go to the washroom to brush your teeth, and if possible bathe and we come downstairs. If we have to do something, then we do it.
"All my children have mobile phones, but I take the phones on Sundays at 6 pm and give it to them on Friday at 6 pm. That is the rule in my house. My boy is at Adisadel, my first girl is at Aburi Girls my second girl is at Holy Child, and the third girl is finishing Junior High School this year."
In an exclusive interview with YEN.com.gh, Miss Ghana 2010 Stephanie Karikari who is proud mother shared her thoughts on children using phones after school.
"I wouldn’t advise kids to have access to smart phones until a particular age, preferably probably from 14 or 15."
"Taking care of kids is always by the grace of God. Yet we’re in the social media era, a whole world that we can’t really control. There are no forms of protection for children, and with the immaturity of a child’s mind, curiosity is a normal trait. Therefore, as a parent, being able to guide them to a certain extent is important. All the time, my priority."
