Kapanlagi.com - On the beautiful date of February 20, 2020, Tantri gave birth to her second child. The delivery process of her baby boy named Arkhairan Cadenza Tanarda went smoothly and the baby was born healthy.

When met at Mayapada Hospital, Lebak Bulus, South Jakarta, on Saturday (22/2/2020), the couple Arda and Tantri shared the parenting strategy they will apply after having two children. They admitted to learning a lot about parenting and starting to implement it in their daily lives.

1. Fair Parents

Arda - Tantri couple explained that their first daughter is more of a role model than a listener. They admitted that setting an example for their child is challenging, but they always strive to implement it.

In addition, this celebrity couple does not focus too much on their younger sibling or ask their eldest daughter to give in. They do not want Kara to feel that her freedom is lost because of the presence of her younger sibling.

"So there's no such thing as Kara 'giving in' just because she has a younger sibling. Kara is still a little child. Even though she is the older sister, it is impossible for her to give in to a younger child. So we direct her by saying 'Kara, don't cry, let's go and play there' or 'Kara, what toys do you have?'. So it's not about avoiding the younger sibling. What we are learning now is not to say 'because of the younger sibling, I can't do this anymore'," Tantri explained.

2. Mutual Support

This celebrity couple also shared their togetherness in taking care of their child. Their strategy of not announcing the birth of their second son on the first day was to allow Tantri to recover and bond with their older successful child.

"On the first day, we didn't announce it. Only our close family knew and it turned out to be successful. Tantri was still weak after coming out of the operating room, but she recovered quickly and could be close to her child again. I turned off the lights, and she could be with her child while I played her favorite playlist," said Arda.

On the other hand, Tantri let her husband rest and sleep without waking him up after his performance on stage. When he woke up, Arda was touched by his wife's consideration for his health condition.
