Years ago, Alicia Silverstone surprised many people when she shared that she fed her son by pre-chewing his food and passing it into his mouth like a bird.
The actress and mother has made another shocking statement, this time around she said she still shares a bed with her son who is almost a teenager.

The mother said she still co-sleeps with her son as a way of her just simply following nature.
The 45-year-old revealed this while trying to compare her co-sleeping arrangement to humans trying to survive in any kind of 'wild setting' where parents were protective of their children.
"Bear and I still sleep together," she said on the podcast.
"If you were in any kind of wild setting where there are wild animals, if you put you baby over there your baby is going to get eaten," she said.
"So it's not ideal for the baby to be over there," she added.
