Matthew McConaughey and Camila Alves' son Levi celebrated his 15th birthday on Friday and his famous parents surprised him by setting up an Instagram account for him.
The teen was overjoyed by Matthew and Camila's decision and alongside the video the actor shared on his personal feed, explaining their decision, he wrote: "Mamma and Papai thank you."
Matthew and Camila confessed it wasn't an easy move to make and they'd been considering letting Levi join social media for three years.
He added his model wife was "a little nervous today about one of the gifts we are giving you." Matthew added: "We are allowing you Levi, today on your 15th birthday, to join the social media universe."

Camila chimed in: "We've been talking about this for a long time. Preparing for it, talking about it for three years now."
But the father-of-three - they're also parents to 10-year-old Livingston and 13-year-old Vida - feels confident that his oldest, "knows who he is," and noted: "He knows where he's going. I think he can handle it. He has a great story to tell, to share.
"I want to let all of you all know you're getting a very cool and respectful young man, Levi McConaughey, coming at you, and I hope you can all do your best to treat him the same way.

Matthew recently opened up about parenting teenagers during an appearance on Chelsea Handler's podcast, Dear Chelsea.
"We're just getting into those teen years. That's a whole new roller coaster," he joked but added that entering the years of classic teenage angst also has its benefits.

It's a welcome change for the actor, who added: "I'm not teaching, I'm not talking to her as her parent, we're just jiving."

"I noticed early on these young people are who they are," he said, explaining: "I can shepherd them, I can nudge them, I can put in front of them what lights their fire, and try to keep them from hurting themselves too bad."

You see a full passport, you got a pretty good idea that person has pretty good wisdom about how the world works and how humanity rolls."
