“I’m dreading the teenage years with my daughters; it’s not going to be easy for them to go on a date,” he jokingly said.
He also pointed out that keeping his kids humble is his number one goal, adding that he does all he can to make sure they’re good people.
“I want to give them all the things I never had but make sure they understand it’s not normal and that it takes hard work to get what you want,” Wahlberg said, going on to add, “You have to provide them with the tools that will make them good people.”
Mark Wahlberg Supports His Daughter’s Relationship
Given his recent support for his daughters dating and having relationships, the co-owner of “Wahlburgers” may have overcome his apprehension about it.

In an Instagram video, Wahlberg can be seen working out with James Stuart, who is reportedly his daughter’s lover.

“I used to work out to keep the boys away from my girls, and now I’m working out with the boyfriend. Imagine that,” the actor joked in the clip as he wore matching ensembles.
According to Page Six, the actor revealed that the reason he’s no longer overprotective of his daughter is that dating among teenagers is “inevitable.”
“At some point, it’s gonna happen,” he said. “I wanna know who she’s gonna be hanging out with, what his parents are like, all that stuff.”

“I want to be able to work from home,” Wahlberg said while on an episode of “The Talk” per Page Six. “I moved to California many years ago to pursue acting, and I’ve only made a couple of movies in the entire time that I was there.”
He continued, “So, to be able to give my kids a better life and follow and pursue their dreams whether it be my daughter as an equestrian, my son as a basketball player, my younger son as a golfer, this made a lot more sense for us.”
The actor reportedly listed his California property for a lumpsum price of $87.5 million and got an impressive estate in Nevada said to be worth $15.6M.
