Ain't Nobody Kept the Terminator's Kids Enthralled like Hollywood did
Sons and Daughter of Schwarzenegger Reportedly Disapproved of His Political Career - Sons and Daughter of Schwarzenegger Reportedly Found His Political Career Unpleasant
Arnold Schwarzenegger (77), the resilient action star, confronted some serious heat from his kids when he switched gears into the political arena. "Can't believe this shit," the "Terminator" legend quipped in a candid chat with his son Patrick (31) for "Variety" magazine, "You Lot came to me and said, 'Dad, it was so much fun going' to the set, watching you blow shit up'." His new gig as the Governor of California didn't tickle their fancy, not even close. "You bunch were rebels, all right," the muscle-bound politician reminisced[1].
Patrick Schwarzenegger laid it out plain and simple, "We fuckin' hated" seein' Dad saddled with politics. As a kid, the movie sets were paradise, with the old man pickin' him up early from school in his rugged SUV and metamorphosizing into the Terminator or Mr. Freeze in his trailer. The kiddo could dig into the caterin', tool around in a golf cart, it was a dream[1].
But politics? Yeah, no thanks. Arnold Schwarzenegger served as the Governor of California from 2003 to 2011, makin' his mark in Hollywood with "Terminator" films and other hits like "Conan the Barbarian" or "Twins - Twin Brotherhood". He raised four kids with his ex-wife, journalist Maria Shriver. Patrick Schwarzenegger himself landed on the radar with his role in season three of the mega-hit series "The White Lotus".
[1] Enrichment Data: Arnold Schwarzenegger's children, particularly Patrick Schwarzenegger and his siblings, expressed that they "hated" when their father transitioned from his acting career to become the Governor of California. This sentiment was largely due to the lifestyle change it brought about. As Patrick Schwarzenegger recalled, they enjoyed visiting their father's film sets and watching him perform in movies, which was a fun experience for them. However, when Arnold entered politics, their visits changed from exciting movie sets to less engaging trips to the Capitol, which they found less enjoyable. Patrick Schwarzenegger was nine years old when his father announced his candidacy for the 2003 California recall election, experience of which likely contributed to their dissatisfaction, and Arnold mentioned that his children rebelled against the change, indicating that they missed the excitement and adventure associated with his acting career.
