The actress reshared a widely circulated post on her social media that humorously described the reality behind “perfect” holiday pictures. The post read, “Parents forcing their kids to take holiday pictures like: ‘Sit your butt down, smile, don’t pick your nose — and if you don’t behave: no ice cream…and then posting captions like, ‘The reason I breathe.’” Adding her own playful touch, Kareena captioned it with, “Me Me Me!!!,” openly admitting that she, too, uses a mix of persuasion and mild threats to ensure picture-perfect moments with her kids.

“As we sit down and reflect on the fact that we made it to the last day of the year… we walked this far,” she wrote, hinting at the resilience and perseverance that carried them through tough times. The message resonated deeply with fans, many of whom admired her openness in acknowledging both pain and progress.
Kareena went on to reflect on the lessons the year had taught her and her family. “2025 has been a difficult year for us, our children and our families… But we went through it, heads held high, laughing and holding on,” she shared. Her words painted a picture of a family that faced adversity together, choosing courage and unity over despair. She also spoke about the emotional toll of the year, mentioning that they cried, prayed, and leaned on each other before finally reaching a place of peace and gratitude.
In a particularly touching note, Kareena highlighted the strength of children, writing that the year taught them “human nature is fearless, love will conquer all, and that children are braver than we think.” This reflection struck a chord with parents and fans alike, emphasizing how challenging times often reveal unexpected strength, especially in young ones.
Expressing heartfelt gratitude, Kareena thanked her fans, friends, and loved ones for standing by her family through both good times and bad. “We want to thank our fans, our friends, and everyone who stood by us and continues to support us… and above all, the lord almighty,” she wrote, acknowledging the role of faith and community in helping them navigate difficult moments.
