She calls children nuggets. He cannot live even a day without his children who are not related by blood! The fact that she adopted kids doesn’t stop her from being a mother 100%. Charlize Theron, whose children are adopted, rushes headlong every day from early morning to feed, clothe and send them to school, after which she goes to her favorite job. Today we’ll talk about Charlize Theron, a global star.
The actress is truly called to be a mother, and the desire to protect orphans came from early childhood. Cases of adoption in Hollywood are not uncommon; many stars do this, including Madonna, Jolie, and Bullock. Charlize Theron is no exception. She is grateful to her mother for the proper upbringing and loves her adopted children as if they were her own.
Personal life and raising children
Charlize grew up as an only child in the family and dreamed of a brother or sister. Having grown up, she took an oath to definitely shelter abandoned children. Back in 2012, Charlize became a new mother, taking custody of her son Jackson for the first time. In 2020, she adopted Augusta. Charlize lives without her husband in Los Angeles with her children and her beloved mother named Gerda. At the moment, my daughter is 3 years old, and the boy is 6. What kind of children does Charlize Theron have? You can see photos of black babies right now.

The star’s mother played a major role in the development of her personality. She developed a sense of beauty in her and helped her overcome fear and uncertainty in difficult situations. “She always said when I was nervous that it was just a moment and would soon pass.” Often her phrases sounded like this: “calm down, it’s not the end of the world.” And she smiled when I was literally losing my mind with anger.

It is this kind of upbringing that Charlize tries to apply to her children – girl Augusta and son Jackson. Often the paparazzi notice the tender hugs and affectionate glances that the children and the actress mutually direct to each other. But there are moments of strict upbringing. Recently, journalists captured the mother's demonstrative disregard for Augusta's whims... The girl flatly refused to carry her own blouse in her hands and whined.
As the actress states, she never looked at the world through rose-colored glasses and raising her children this way (encouraging them in everything and doing everything for them) means making a mistake. Children must understand that they need to be independent in the world, but they must feel their mother’s love. She rarely resorts to the help of a nanny and tries to give all of herself to dark-skinned kids.

Since Charlize Theron's children are black, which confirms their South African roots, she feels even more close to them. In raising children, he tries not to make mistakes, to exclude the topic of racism from their consciousness. Considers “this” to be a sore spot in modern society.
The actress's son, Jackson, is a girl??
Often the paparazzi began to notice that the actress’s two children appeared in public in dresses and skirts. This is surprising, because Jackson is officially a boy. Why does his mother allow him such an extraordinary form of clothing? Not yet known. The press suspects that the mother dresses the child this way in accordance with Western liberal trends.

Recently, the family was spotted in Los Angeles; over the weekend they came to dine at a restaurant. Charlize Theron's children wore dresses. Boy Jackson's feet were wearing wedge sandals. When asked by journalists, the mother answers that she does not hide her son’s hobby of dressing up and even calls him a girl. Even if Jackson has girlish tendencies, it’s not for us to judge, but the mother loves her children despite such twists of fate. Or maybe everything will change and the child will get tired of wearing dresses...

Emotional shock. "Tally"
A new film, just released, shows the life of a young woman as it is. This movie is so realistic that you begin to believe that Charlize herself is pregnant. To truly play this role, the actress needed to gain 50 feet and gain more than 22 kilograms! As the 43-year-old actress says in an interview, it was easy for her, because she really wanted to get the role. This is a great experience - understanding what can happen to every woman and how to prevent the consequences of depression.
According to the script, the main character Marla, having two children, each with their own whims, becomes pregnant and gives birth to a third. Here a lot of problems arise due to excess weight, misunderstanding of relatives, especially the husband, and other, other troubles. The appearance of night nanny Tully, like a bright ray in a dark kingdom, makes the main character look at the world from a different perspective. And, of course, take a break from household chores and get in shape. There were also entertainments, but what did they lead to...
You can talk about the film for hours, as well as, in principle, about all the roles that Charlize played in her life. She was an atomic blonde and a gentle lady who was betrayed, a spy, a combat soldier, a passionate woman and even a killer monster. But in life, she does not change, she is always sincere, kind and attractive.
Charlize Theron spoke for the first time about why she dresses her son in dresses
He's still small!
Charlize Theron is one of the few celebrities who has decided to adopt other people's children. Of course, in principle, such a position is as correct and laudable as possible. After all, there are so many kids in the world who absolutely cannot do without the attention of adults. And even more so without maternal love.
But many fans and media representatives have repeatedly criticized the actress because of her parenting methods. In particular, this applies to Charlize's first adopted child, a 7-year-old guy named Jackson. But he wasn't a guy for that long.
Charlize Theron boasted that the appearance of children in her life greatly changed the character of the actress. She learned to be more patient and attentive. And now, as soon as the actress wants to flare up, the star simply begins to think that her children are unlikely to be happy to see this.
Charlize is raising her children in a completely gender-neutral environment.
Moreover, she buys dresses for her son Jackson and braids girls’ hair.

Because of this, the actress was repeatedly criticized mercilessly.
She replied that she had also previously thought that Jackson was a boy.
Until he looked at her and said that he was, in fact, a girl.
Charlize decided to accept her son's choice and support him.
And especially not to pay attention to press comments.

Moreover, the youngest daughter Charlize is still a girl.
More precisely, she continues to believe that this is exactly the case.
Charlize Theron is not even going to criticize her child's choice and do everything to make Jackson change his mind and decide to become a boy. The actress is confident that children themselves are able to make choices and determine their future. And everything depends on their feelings.
She noted that her task, like any parent, is only to help her child. And help includes support and a lot of love. The actress emphasized that she will do everything in her power. But only so that her children are the happiest and most satisfied with their lives.
Charlize Theron said she will always protect her children. No matter what gender they are or what age. The actress is sure that only they themselves are able to determine for themselves the right path in life, which should bring them a lot of happiness and joy.
The star said that her mother conveyed such beliefs to her. After all, once upon a time her father beat little Charlize severely, and also often drank. Until the woman had to defend herself in a very radical way. After all, her father died just before the actress’s eyes when she was only 15 years old.
And even then, Charlize Theron firmly decided that she always needed to defend her position. Moreover, she is sure that she must fight for her rights at any cost. And for this reason, he does not want to infringe on his children’s desires or forcibly re-educate them.
Interesting statements by Charlize – last interview 2018
Charlize Theron. Adopted children…
“I have never seen any difference in raising an adopted child and raising my own biological child and I don’t feel like I’m missing out on anything.”
“I was always honest with my men and immediately said that I was not against biological children, but adoption would be a part of my life.”
“I don’t envy people who have more than three children, because I know that children completely absorb attention and take it upon themselves.”
Regarding filming the role of Marla
“I have never understood those people who do not want to transform, literally and figuratively. For the sake of the role, this is simply necessary. I'm happy to change my body to feel my character."
“Eating and drinking a lot of sweets made me dizzy, and I quickly gained weight. And she fell into a terrible depression. Full recovery came after filming a year later.”
“I always get into character very much because I imagine that I am in reality. It’s strange that some people are still surprised by this.”
About communication, age and “a staff of 40 people”
“In life, for many years I have been looking for open, honest people to communicate with, who do real things, and do not pretend. Sometimes I transform into an atomic blonde and do something crazy, but this is very rare.”
“When I turned 20, I loved to travel with a backpack on my back, walk until late, and have a drink. At 30, I wanted more to visit my mother and feel her warmth, to adopt children and start a family. And at 40, there’s nothing to say... I finally found everything that was perfect and suitable for me in size, color, smell - the perfect mug, the perfect bed, perfume...”
“Do I have assistants? People think I have a staff of 40 people at home. In fact, my mother, nanny and friends help me. I'm not afraid to ask for help, they give me fuel - a charge of energy. If there is no fuel and there is emptiness inside, the “car” will not move. So am I."

Outlook on life
- The actress has a free outlook on life. She does not accept prohibitions and taboos, and is categorical about signs and other things that constrain people’s consciousness. Stereotypes are not for Charlize. She doesn’t even limit her children’s clothing, allowing her son to wear dresses. Charlize Theron with children - photo 2020, see above. Regarding this, the actress says - it’s better to let her wear what she wants than for me to prove that I’m right and fray my nerves.
- The actress often uses strong words, especially on the set. Considering this a better way out of the situation than hours of scandals and disputes.
- Charlize said during her last interview that she considers patience to be a virtue that comes to her from above at the moments of the emergence of maternal feelings. This had never happened before, but after two little creatures appeared in life, everything changed. Charlize Theron is happy that she has to take care of children and overcome obstacles.
After her role in Tully, the actress’s life has changed a little; she is learning to be more patient. Although this is difficult. Charlize says that at 5.45 in the morning thoughts about running away flash through her head, because sending two children to school and kindergarten is quite a troublesome task, especially if the children have character. She doesn’t think that she could have more children, because it would add more trouble. Therefore, he wants to give all the warmth to his kids, to raise them as worthy people.
Despite the fact that she already had the experience of raising three people, even if it was cinematic, Charlize “grew up” in her eyes, having been in the shoes of a woman in labor, so to speak. Having endured all the hardships of motherhood on stage, she rethought her life.

Adoption of children
According to Charlize, adoption is a very personal moment; a person must be convinced that he will be able to raise someone else’s child as his own.
According to Charlize, she felt spiritual emptiness and a strong desire to have a child. And her first application for adoption was written as a result of a strong mental struggle.
Charlize with mom
When the girl first applied to adopt a child, her mother showed her a letter written in childhood. In it, Charlize asks her mother to take her to the orphanage for the child: Charlize always wanted to have a brother or sister.
Adoption put a lot of things in place in her life. Charlize admits that there are different moments in the family, sometimes even leading to hysterics, when it seems that children choose the most difficult moments in life to behave badly. But there was not a single moment when she regretted her decision.
For her, her stepchildren always come first, even when she is in a serious relationship. This is her strict belief, and she honestly states this to her partners.
Son Jackson
Many people believe that Jackson is from South Africa, but this is not true. He was adopted by Charlize in 2012 in America.
The first photo of Charlize with her adopted child
The wait for the first child in the family lasted so long, and the desire to have a child was so strong that Theron even had chest pain. This is the power of self-hypnosis, the star believes. Psychologically, she was ready to become a mother and breastfeed him.
Just 2-3 years ago, the star put military-style clothes on her son and took him to karate. But now he wears waist-length braids, and was recently seen with his hair down and makeup on his face.
A few years ago, people noticed that the actress allows her son to wear women's bags, skirts and dresses, and wear the clothes of princesses from Disney fairy tales.
Journalists saw the reason for this as the star trying to live up to his liberal views.

Charlize said in an interview that Jackson chooses his own clothes. He loves skirts and bright colors, and there is no anomaly in that. She argued that the child was developing normally and that banning women's clothing would be more harmful than wearing it. She did not want to explain gender differences to a small child or in any other way cause him moral suffering.
In April 2020, the star gave a long interview to Elle magazine, where it was said that her adopted son is transgender. Jason, at age 3, told her, “I’m not a boy,” and announced that his name was Jacqueline.
“Children choose their own path,” the star added. “And it’s the parents’ responsibility to love them as they are.” Now the star considers herself the mother of two proud African daughters.
Some facts from the biography of the actress
- Birthday: August 7, 1975
- Where was I born: South Africa
- Horoscope – Leo/Rabbit
Charlize Theron was born in the African Republic. Has French, German and Dutch roots. She was the first African girl to win an Oscar for best role in the film “Monster,” which helped her overcome financial difficulties and rise to the top of fame. Let us note that she played surprisingly touching roles in the films “North Country” and “Head in the Clouds.” And many other films.
Since childhood, Charlize has been dancing and seriously thought about majoring in ballet. Becoming a ballerina was her dream. If it weren’t for a knee injury, which crossed out her, as it seemed then, a wonderful future. At the age of 15, a tragedy struck a farming family - the father died under terrible circumstances. Charlize's mother shot him in self-defense.
Unfortunately, she had to leave the ballet due to injuries (psychological and physical); after 16 years, the girl earned money on the podium as a model. But she couldn’t make ends meet, she was constantly short of money, and her work didn’t bring her pleasure. And later she took a one-way ticket to Los Angeles and never returned. Thanks to a lucky coincidence - a meeting with an impresario, Charlize was recognized as a talented actress and was invited to film a small role.
The actress starred in advertising for Dior perfume and often appeared on the pages of glossy magazines. But she devotes most of her time to transformations on the set of films.

Posted by Roman Lvovsky (@romlev70) Feb 23, 2020 at 2:01 PST
The future American film star was born on August 7, 1975 in the small town of Benoni in the Republic of South Africa. Her parents were simple, down-to-earth entrepreneurs: they owned a farm and a road construction company. The girl spent her entire childhood outdoors near the city of Johannesburg.
Charlize showed herself to be a talented child, so at the age of 6 she entered a dance school, and later went to a special ballet boarding school, where she devoted all her time to training and was going to become a professional dancer.
A tragic crime occurred in her family when Charlize was 15 years old. The girl's father suffered from chronic alcoholism, which made him uncontrollable. On the fateful evening, he attacked his wife, so that she had to repel her aggressive husband. She fatally shot him with a shotgun, nearly landing him in prison, but a jury found she acted in self-defense. Despite the acquittal, Theron hid this stain on her family's reputation for a long time, saying that her father died in a car accident.

At the age of 16, the girl began participating in beauty contests, where she won landslide victories. At one of the competitions in Italy, she impressed scouts from a modeling agency and received a contract in Milan. After this, intense years of work began in many cities in Europe and America. Young Charlize decided to settle in New York to combine a modeling career and study at a prestigious dance school.
She dreamed of performing on stage, but a knee injury put an end to her career as a dancer. Then the girl fell into despair and for some time thought that she would have to return to South America to lead a philistine lifestyle for the rest of her days. Having gathered her courage, she decided to go first to Miami, where she worked as a model, and then decided to go to Hollywood, where she had a very difficult time at first.
Genderless children: the stellar trend for gender-neutral education is sweeping the planet
More recently, the pendulum of public attention has swung towards the removal of all differences associated with gender. To some extent, this is due to the growing power of feminism. In some ways, it’s because people are no longer afraid to openly express their difficulties with gender self-identification.
Previously, this phenomenon was called exclusively “disorder.” Now experts are inclined to believe that some people really need the opportunity to “choose their gender.”
This idea is actively supported by the stars. “Sexless” upbringing in celebrity families has hardly become a trend among famous families.
The leader of the gender-neutral movement is Angelina Jolie, whose daughter Shiloh Jolie-Pitt has worn exclusively boyish outfits and short haircuts since early childhood.
In an interview, Jolie recalled how Shiloh was offered the role of Princess Aurora in Maleficent:
The producers didn't have a chance. There’s no way she’s going to wear a dress!”
By the way, the girl doesn’t like the name Shiloh: she asks to call her John.

Another example is Willow Hart, the daughter of singer Pink and motorcycle racer Carey Hart. The 7-year-old girl loves to wear men's suits on the red carpet and, according to her mother, "plans to marry an African woman" in the future.
Pink herself is not at all embarrassed by such statements. She is absolutely sure: a child needs freedom of choice in everything - let him try to be both a girl and a boy, and decide for himself what he likes more.
By the way, Pink herself sometimes also behaves like a man: at one time she herself proposed marriage to Carey Hart.

Jackson Theron, the adopted son of Charlize Theron, is also being brought up in an atmosphere of complete freedom of expression. He really loves girly dresses, braids and tutus - and his Oscar-winning mother willingly buys him all of them.
Each new photo of Jackson in a tutu causes a storm of emotions in the media: “Charlize Theron’s son appeared in a skirt!” - scream “sensational” headlines.
But Charlize cares little about the opinion of the press and public canons. She categorically states:
I am for freedom of expression!”

Jennifer Lopez's nephew Brandon is not far behind Jackson. Few people knew about his existence until the famous aunt posted his photo on her Instagram. At the same time, Jennifer presented the boy very ambiguously:
This is Brandon, my sister Leslie's youngest child. They have been selected as the person to represent their school at the World Young Leaders Conference in Washington DC. I am immensely proud of him."

“They” is not Lopez’s slip. The fact is that Brandon is a transgender teenager: until the age of 14, he was a girl named Rebecca. But then he dressed as a boy, chose a new name for himself (in honor of bisexual musician Brendon Urie) and is now waiting for his 18th birthday to begin the hormone therapy necessary for gender reassignment.
The pronoun “they” is also Brandon’s choice: after all, it is more neutral than “he” and “she.”

And pop diva Celine Dion joined her colleagues. The Canadian singer has launched her own brand of gender-neutral clothing. The brand is called Celinununu and offers very cute things that are equally suitable for both boys and girls. You get the hint: the trend towards gender-neutral education is no longer exclusively stellar and is confidently striding across the planet.

Charlize Theron's son wears dresses. What's happening?
The most famous Hollywood case of a child “dressing up” in clothes considered typical for members of the opposite sex is, of course, the story of Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt’s daughter, Shiloh.
The girl, born in 2006, became the first common child of the actors. The first years of her life, little Shiloh Nouvel looked like most babies: cute dresses, long hair. However, pretty soon everything changed.
Shiloh told her parents that she wanted short hair and clothes that boys wear. Pitt and Jolie supported their daughter and allowed her to dress and look the way she was comfortable - already at the age of eight she began going out with her parents in jackets and ties.
In a 2008 interview with Oprah Winfrey, Pitt said that Shiloh prefers to be called John, and he has absolutely no problem with that. Jolie also said in conversations with journalists that together with her husband they support their daughter and do not interfere with her choice of gender identity. “She likes to dress like a boy. She wants to be a boy, to look like a boy, so we cut her hair. All her clothes are boyish. She considers herself one of our boys,” the actress was quoted as saying by E! Online.
Now, as some publications write, 11-year-old Shiloh is seriously thinking about changing her sex. So far, however, there is no confirmation of this. And it seems that everyone has long been accustomed to Shiloh and her choice - society generally has a more tolerant attitude towards girls in pants. The same cannot be said about boys in dresses.
Reports that Charlize Theron's adopted son Jackson wants to wear dresses and sequins surfaced several years ago. First
boys in girls' clothes appeared in the fall of 2016. Jackson and his sister were photographed wearing pink tutu skirts and ballet flats. In this form, they went with their mother to visit.
At first, the ubiquitous commentators decided that it was all about the approaching Halloween - the photographs appeared on October 30. But then the media increasingly began to publish photographs of the boy, either in pink UGG boots, or in long sleeves with sequins, or in various dresses.
Of course, versions began to multiply: someone said that Theron allegedly forced Jackson to dress like a girl, someone spoke in the spirit of “this is what happens when whites adopt blacks,” and someone suggested that the boy simply did not know how he needs to dress, because he grows up surrounded by women - mothers, grandmothers, nannies. However, the latest version does not tolerate any criticism - immediately after the adoption, the boy was always dressed in, say, more traditional clothes.
The world has no choice but to admit that Charlize Theron simply allows her son to be himself. And here it doesn’t matter at all whether he wants to become a girl or he just likes to wear dresses. As the authors of the celebrity blog Indusrty On Blast say, he achieved this right through hysterics and scandals.
By the way, Jackson is not the only boy from a Hollywood family who is allowed to wear dresses. Megan Fox and Brian Austin Green allow their eldest son Noah to wear dresses and any other girl's clothing.
In an interview with Hollywood Pipeline, Austin Green explained why he and his wife are okay with their son's choice: "I know some people are against him wearing dresses. I can tell them: I don’t care. He's four, and if he wants to wear dresses, let him. This is his life. And these are not my clothes."
And most importantly: “What else to do at four or five years old, if not have fun. No one will get hurt because he wears the dress. So if he wants to wear dresses, let him wear them.” The key phrase is “no one gets hurt.” Luckily, Brian Austin Green's son lives in a world where no one gets hurt by his clothing choices, especially himself, as may well be the case in the rest of the world.
