Kristen Bell's 7-year-old daughter Lincoln Shepard decided to write her first opinion essay about her mom's parenting methods, the 39-year-old "Veronica Mars" actress showed in an Instagram post on Monday.

As American schools remain closed during the coronavirus pandemic, many parents — including Bell — are struggling to educate their children at home.

"Trying to get my 1st grader to write her first opinion essay, and was quite impressed with the topic she chose as she presented her grid with opinion and evidence," she wrote, also sharing a photo of her daughter's hand-drawn outline for her followers.

Lincoln's grid included the phrase, "How my mommy reacts to me," which was the topic for her essay. She surrounded the phrase with supporting evidence such as "Bad reactions," "No patience," "Stern voice," and "Doesn't believe in me."

In response to her daughter's poor review, Bell wrote, "Touche my young lass. Touche."

Bell shares daughters Lincoln and Delta, 5, with her husband Dax Shepard. She's previously provided insight into her life as a mother during the coronavirus pandemic and even likened her kids to "2 insane parrots" in an Instagram post on Friday.

She shared a photo that said, "Being quarantined with a talkative child is like having an insane parrot super glued to your shoulder."

She's also shown the family's arts and crafts projects that they've done from home, including a drawing that said, "We are going to flatten the curve!"

Aware that parents have been trying to find new ways to entertain their children while stuck in their houses, the couple, who co-founded baby product company Hello Bello, launched a virtual camp on Instagram Live and Facebook for children during the pandemic.

"Almost exactly one year ago today we created Hello Bello for one reason because parenting alone is hard," she said in the camp's first video, adding, "And little did we know how hard it could get, because parenting alone in quarantine is, um, well, it's impossible."

Bell isn't the first celebrity parent to open up about how difficult parenting is during the pandemic. Other stars like Justin Timberlake, Kim Kardashian West, and Drew Barrymore have spoken about their struggles while self-isolating with their children.
