Kylie Kelce reveals the advice she gives her and Jason Kelce’s kids for dealing with mean girls
The podcast host and the former Philadelphia Eagles player share four daughters: Wyatt, Elliotte, Bennett and Finnley
“I would just hope that my kids would lean away from mean girls,” Kylie said
Kylie Kelce revealed how she protects her daughters from “mean girls.”
During the latest episode of her Not Gonna Lie podcast, the mom of four, 34, explained that to keep her and Jason Kelce’s kids — Wyatt, 6, Elliotte, 5, Bennett, 3, and Finnley, 1 — from befriending mean girls, she must first lead by example.
“There’s one thing I know for certain: I have looked at my 6-year-old child when she is not being kind to her sisters, and I have explained to her that, if you are going to be a mean girl, you will not have friends,” Kylie said of her oldest daughter. “Because people will not want to be friends with the mean girl.”
“I hope that spills into the idea that they would then not want to be friends with a mean girl,” she continued. “I think it’s important to give the example of nice play or nice communication so that your kids acknowledge and recognize what is nice play and what is good communication.”
After all, Kylie has always been a big believer in the golden rule.
“I would hope that in emphasizing kindness, emphasizing to them that they should treat others the way they wanna be treated, I would just hope that my kids would lean away from mean girls,” she concluded.
Beyond teaching her daughters to “play nice” with their friends, Kylie recently opened up about how she and Jason, 38, have decided to parent their children while living their lives in the spotlight.

"I don't want our kids to live in some, like, massive cavernous mansion situation," she told influencer Cameron Oaks during a March episode of her Conversations with Cam podcast. "I want our kids to know that they have to clean up after themselves."
Indeed, the former field hockey player went on to say that she wanted to raise her daughters to be “good people” without giving them “the silver spoon.”
"It is one of those where it's so exciting to get to give our kids these experiences, and at the same time, I'm like 'Not too many,' " she explained. "I want them to, quite frankly — I just want them to not be a--holes.
