Although she's the star of Bad Moms, Mila Kunis has an interesting - and possibly brilliant - parenting idea for making sure her kids don't end up being spoilt.

She doesn't give them Christmas presents.

The actress and her husband Ashton Kutcher say they're working hard to not "raise a**h****" and have revealed that that's made its way into their Christmas tradition.kids, Wyatt, 3, and Demitri, 1.

Speaking to Entertainment Weekly about their two children, Wyatt, 3, and Dimitri, 1, Mila explains:

"Our tradition is no presents for the kids. We're instituting it this year because when the kids are [younger than] one, it doesn't really matter. Last year when we celebrated Christmas, Wyatt was two and it was too much. We didn't give her anything - it was the grandparents. The kid no longer appreciates the one gift. They don't even know what they're expecting; they're just expecting stuff.

We've told our parents, 'We're begging you - if you have to give her something, pick one gift. Otherwise, we'd like to take a charitable donation, to the Children's Hospital or a pet [or] whatever you want.’ That's our new tradition."

Any parents out there tempted to try the same thing this Christmas?
