John Krasinski On Handling Fan Photo Requests While Parenting

Smart kid! “Why are you lying to me?” 😂

[rositadiaz]

You were a salesman!!!! Not an accountant!!!! IT’S NOT A JOKE JIM 😂

[TheNerdistheWord]

You say “I’m an actor and I was a character on a show called “The Office.”” 7 year olds understand way more than you’d think. Our kids are that age and they will tell me things that happened when they were 2 and 3 and I’m always in Awe that they still remember enough about things from that age to retell those memories. They’re incredible!

Aw, he’s a good father. Trying to give his children a fun and normal childhood. Family time is special.

[gabifgt]

i think adults underestimate children's intelligence a lot.

John K, you are such a humble, easy going dude. Kudos on not letting Hollywood change you.

[SquidTheKid]

Honestly that’s refreshing always liked John from The Office

I ❤ John and Emily! Their rule for fans coming up to then while they're wirh their underage kids is a great rule. Protecting and putting their kids 1st is a great rule to follow! ❤

[Gracious-mb]

Wow that's pretty cool love that show

[stephhinton]

And then there is Emily, who introduces to them "Ken" (Ryan Gosling) 😂

NGL for some reason their kids are still babies in my mind lol, they seem like really good people.

[DreamBelief]

How do you explain that to her? She's 7. She's not 7 months old lol just tell her you're an actor and that the show was called The Office etc. I'm sure she's more than smart enough to grasp it. Guessing they just didn't want the kids to know yet

[AmmaLove]

Why would you tell your kids you're an accountant? Just tell them the truth, they aren't stupid and they know when you're lying.

[MM-higd]

i thought he was gonna say bc he doesn't want to potentially expose his kids on the internet, but he just said sth like 'theyre probably too stupid to understand acting as a concept and we don't wanna explain our jobs' lmao. i love u john but what? 😅😂
