Record Producer Nick Cannon is raising his daughter Monroe to be a sophisticated intellectual.

The 36-year-old, who has five-year-old twins Moroccan and Monroe with his former wife and singer Mariah Carey, and one-month-old son Golden with his former girlfriend Brittany Bell, shared a photograph of himself with Monroe on Instagram.

The image features them wearing matching glasses.

Cannon captioned it: "Twins. Miss Monroe loves her glasses and I hope she never takes them off! A sophisticated intellectual is what I'm trying to raise here and these glasses keep them little grimy ruffneck kindergarteners away from my baby. For your information, my shotgun is registered."

The image comes after the former "America's Got Talent" judge recently said he won't rule out a reunion with Monroe's mother Mariah, who recently split from her former partner Bryan Tanaka.
