Ashton Kutcher and Mila Kunis are one of my favorite celebrity couples.
From their early days on That '70s Show to their romantic reunion, I can't help but hope to have a love like theirs one day.
Ashton and Mila have come a long way from playing loved-up teenagers Kelso and Jackie on That '70s Show.
The couple, now both in their 30s, are parents to two sweet kids: 3-year-old daughter Wyatt and 1-year-old son Dimitri.
I think we tend to assume that celebrities' children are spoiled rotten because of all the money their parents have, but Ashton and Mila have been outspoken about the fact that they're trying hard to prevent that.
In a recent interview with Entertainment Tonight, the power couple admitted that they aren't getting their children any Christmas gifts this year.

There's no doubt in my mind that Ashton Kutcher and Mila Kunis have plenty of money between the two of them. The couple, who met on That '70s Show, are both highly successful actors with no shortage of job offers.
But despite that, the couple work really hard to raise their two kids (3-year-old Wyatt and 1-year-old Dimitri) as normally as possible.
The couple said that their goal is not to "raise a**holes." They have a pretty unique way of doing this!
In a past interview, Mila admitted that she and Ashton plan to tell their children they're poor. Mila said, “It’s a matter of teaching them from a very early age that, you know, Mommy and Daddy may have a dollar, but you’re poor. You are very poor, you have nothing. Mommy and Daddy have a bank account."
In a more recent interview with Entertainment Tonight, Mila also mentioned that she and Ashton don't plan to buy Christmas gifts for either of their children this year.
Mila said when kids are very young, there's no need to get them anything because they don't really understand.
She said:
Our tradition is no presents for the kids. We’re instituting it this year because when the kids are [younger than] 1, it doesn’t really matter. Last year when we celebrated Christmas, Wyatt was 2 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.
Mila and Ashton even asked their own parents to only pick one present for each of their grandchildren, or to donate to the Children's Hospital instead of buying a gift.
Some people think the Kutcher-Kunis tradition is really great.
Others, though, have brought up some of its potentially damaging side effects.
What do you think of Mila and Ashton's unusual Christmas tradition?
