Pet Smart

Larsa wants her kids to know the value of hard work, and of having a pet.

By Larsa Pippen

Instilling work ethics in kids can be challenging because they think everything should come easy. I have the means to spoil my kids with whatever they want, but I choose not to because they have to understand the value of hard work.

How to Watch

Watch The Real Housewives of Miami on Peacock and the Bravo App.

My kids get rewarded for their efforts at school. So when I got their report cards from school, and saw their good grades I had to reward them. They said they wanted some pets and that they would care for them. I took them to a pet shop and we bought a rabbit, turtle, and a couple of lizards. They have been doing a great job of caring for their little buddies.

Alexia had an authentic Cuban dinner at her house. Alexia and Hermen went through a lot of trouble to hand pick dinner. It's not an easy task to pick out the right pig. I don't eat pork, but I was not going to insult her by complaining about the meal that took a lot of effort to prepare. Lea didn't think it was appropriate to have Little Miss Piggy for dinner. LOL!

Sophia is my best friend. We do everything together! We had a full day of laundry and cleaning. I called the nanny agency to set up some interviews. I wanted to interview English speaking and nurturing women for my kids.
