Charlize Theron She opened up about raising her daughters Jackson, 12, and August, nine.

“Oh my God, they feel so ashamed of me constantly. They’re girls, they’re boys, you know? I have a pre-teen and I feel like I have a nine-year-old who thinks she’s 13. There are a lot of girls in our house,” the Oscar winner, 48, said during her interview with Electronic News on July 13 at its Charlize Theron Africa Outreach Project (CTAOP).

The 48-year-old actress said: “I’m just trying to stay afloat, because they’re smart, they’re witty, they’re great, but they’re not like, ‘Oh my God, Mom, you’re amazing.’ They’re like, ‘Excuse me, I need. I want.'”

“They are normal children,” he adds jokingly: “They are idiots, but they are very nice. The other parents know what I am talking about.”

In December 2022, Charlize said she would give up her career for her children if she had to choose between the two, she revealed in an interview with The Hollywood ReporterCharlize said: “I love being a mother more than being an actress or a producer. And I never thought I’d say that. If someone told me tomorrow, ‘You can’t do both,’ would I be sad about giving up acting? Absolutely. But I wouldn’t have a problem with that.”

She added that her current to-do list revolves around her kids: “Right now, everything I do revolves around when my kids are out of school during the summer, which usually means we’re filming during a heat wave somewhere.”

“In 10 years, I definitely see myself as an empty nester and packing my bags and traveling across three continents (hosting) a TV show. But that’s not my life right now,” said the South African-born star.
