Charlize Theron talks about parenting

Charlize Theron recently opened up about her two children. The Tully actress revealed that she originally adopted her seven-year-old, Jackson, thinking she was a boy.

“Yes, I thought she was a boy, too. Until she looked at me when she was three years old and said: ‘I am not a boy! So there you go!” Charlize explained in an interview with the DailyMail.co.uk.

“I have two beautiful daughters who, just like any parent, I want to protect and I want to see thrive. They were born who they are and exactly where in the world both of them get to find themselves as they grow up, and who they want to be, is not for me to decide,” she went on to explain.

Charlize adopted Jackson in 2012 and another daughter, August, in 2015.
