Terry Dubrow, an American plastic surgeon and TV personality, recently opened up about his children getting plastic surgery.

However, instead of giving a hard no, Terry and his wife Heather Dubrow, took a conversational approach, saying, "The way Heather and I handle this is, we go, 'Okay, let's talk about that.'"
He added, “And they go, ‘Oh, here we go, Mom and Dad are going to make us talk about it.’”
Terry continued, “Yeah, we want to talk about it, "Because last thing we want you to do is be regretful, make a decision for the you now that you will regret later and to look back and say to us. Why didn't you make me work this out?
He told the outlet, that "I am open to my kids making the appropriate changes. If they had a bad nose, I would be the first to say, 'Sure, but what are you hoping to gain?'"
Later in the interview he advised about his kids' upbringing too adding, ”Give your kids a supportive, loving environment. That's the perfect place to start."
