## Summary

Malin Akerman says moving from Los Angeles to Connecticut has given her 13-year-old son the outdoor, independent childhood her family wanted. She describes him spending hours biking with neighbourhood children and fishing at local ponds, and says the arrangement feels like a return to the 1950s.

Akerman shared the story on the “Call Her Daddy” podcast, saying her son is not a “tablet kid” and that she can still travel to New York when she wants city life. The 48-year-old actress shares her son with her first husband, Roberto Zincone, and is married to British actor Jack Donnelly. She stars in Netflix’s “The Hunting Wives”, whose second season is scheduled for 26 November.
