Robin Williams' son Zak Williams recently opened up on how he is teaching his son about his late father.
In a recent interview with People, the 37-year-old actor said he and his wife, Olivia June, have put a lot of thought into how they are going to tell their 1-year-old son about his grandfather.
One of the ways they are doing so is by showing him the late actor's films and cartoons, he shared. "My son, Mickey, points at a cel that we have in his room of my dad that has the genie from 'Aladdin,'" he said, mentioning the animation drawing.
"He's got a collection of photos and animation cels throughout our home that he sees on a daily basis," Williams shared about the drawings featuring his late father's famous characters. "I think it's being mindful and introducing the elements and stories about him slowly."
He said that their hopes as parents are to, "celebrate the positive elements and his works and films in a way that there can be appreciation and acknowledgment of him both as an entertainer, but also as a family man, and parent and grandfather."
The actor revealed that he named his son McLaurin Clement Williams as a tribute to his father last year. McLaurin was the late actor's middle name.
Williams died by suicide on Aug. 11, 2014. He was 63.
