Megan Fox, a former Hollywood “it” girl, has disclosed that she sends her three children to an “organic, sustainable, vegan school.”

Fox, 33, who shares seven-year-old Noah and five-year-old Bodhi with her other half Brian Austin Green, said her children know not to ‘rip up flowers’ or hurt animals.

Megan told People: ‘We send them to an organic, sustainable, vegan school where they’re seed-to-table, they plant their own food. They grow it, they harvest it and they take it to local restaurants to sell it, so they understand how all of that works.

‘I’m very specific about never harming animals. We don’t step on ants; we don’t do things like that. We don’t rip flowers out of the ground, because we think they’re beautiful.

‘I teach them that plants are sentient beings — they have feelings, thoughts and emotions — so that’s what we’re doing.’

However, sending your children to vegan school in California is not cheap, with tuition ranging from $21,768 (£16,5580) to $33.013.50 (£25,113) each year, depending on their age. Who knew veggies could be so pricey?!

She went on to say that when her kid inadvertently stepped on a bug and killed it, they arranged a funeral for it.

She said: ‘We did a ceremony, we buried it, we lit sage, we released him back. So, they’re very involved.”

The ‘Jennifer’s Body’ actress went on to say that the couple tries hard to let their children be themselves as much as possible.

“It’s about releasing control, right? That’s all it is,” she said.

“It’s [about] allowing them to be who they are and relinquishing control, because they were born to be who they are, and it’s my job to support that process, not to get involved and micromanage and mold them into what I think they should be.”

“It’s [about] being of that mindset of realizing that they come as the teachers to us,” she continued. “We’re here to keep them alive, but we’re learning all the lessons from them.”

Fox is in the midst of a career revival, having recently wrapped production on the comedic drama Big Gold Brick with Andy Garcia and Lucy Hale.
