His advice was simple, to say the least. “You don’t have to do anything,” C.K. said of Fallon’s daughter, who is 9 1/2 months old. “She’s still at the age that if you leave her in a room she’ll still be there a few minutes later. She just eats, poops and falls asleep.” C.K., who was on the show to promote the fourth season of the television series _Loui_e, has two daughters who live in New York City. ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/97420/louis-ck-jimmy-fallon-parenting-advice/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/97420/louis-ck-jimmy-fallon-parenting-advice/"},"headline":"WATCH: Louis C.K.
