>Steve Jobs did the same with his children after all

Is there any reason to believe that Steve Jobs is an authority on raising children?

Didn't he famously deny paternity for his first daughter until she was around 9 years old?

Steve Jobs was famous for his reality not being the same as everyone else's initial idea of what reality should be.

This would have been an enforceable rule, a decree to be obeyed by nanny. So ideals from Steve Jobs could be valid even if delegation was involved.

he forbid his kid from drinking milk and many other harmless foods. I guess that is not even an outlinner in California... but still

I'd imagine there's a lot of vegan households that forbid the consumption of milk and other "harmless" foods in California, so it doesn't seem strange at all.

I wouldn't say milk is harmless. It really depends on the person.
