Mindy Kaling revealed that her one-year-old daughter runs the show at home during an interview on The Talk on Thursday.

The writer-actress, 39, is a single parent to Katherine and discussed juggling motherhood alongside her busy career while on the show.  

'She is [the boss]. It's amazing how a baby, who is a year and a half, and the amount of toys they have makes it seem like I have nine children,' she said. 

She continued, 'I used to have an office, and now I had to take out my desk and put in all of her stuff … Her new thing right now is she likes to take all of my medications and put them underneath my pillow … like a weird tooth fairy.' 

With a laugh, host Sara Gilbert replied, 'Maybe she shouldn't have access to your medication.'

Kaling responded, 'My child's safe, Sara brings up a good point, but I promise you my child is safe ... It really makes you check your ego because it's like her way or the highway.'
