AceShowbiz - Freddie Prinze Jr. gets stern when it comes to his children's diets. The 47-year-old actor shares Charlotte, 14, and 11-year-old Rocky with his wife Sarah Michelle Gellar, and explained that because he didn't have a choice but to eat healthily as a child, he has instilled the same discipline into his own kids.

"You just have to be a jerk. It's OK. My mom had zero issues being a jerk, as did most moms in the '80s. You bring a little of that last generation in and let it speak for you when you feel you can't do it yourself. I mean, [we] didn't have a choice when I was growing up. If I didn't eat my dinner, that was my breakfast the next morning. So I'm very strict with my kids, especially with stuff in the home," he told UsWeekly.

The "She's All That" actor - who tied the knot with his "Scooby-Doo" co-star in 2002 - went on to add that his children have been "exposed to everything" on the menu from a young age so he is now able to convince them to try a variety of different foods as he revealed that he does the majority of the cooking in their house.

He said, "My kids were eating sushi when they were super young. They've been exposed to everything when they were super young, so it got a lot easier. Sarah [does] make some things for the kids sometimes, but I do most of the cooking. We cook about three [or] four nights a week. … If you ask my kids what their favorite [meal is], it's when I make Mexican truck food. They go really hard on that stuff."
