Famous actress and mother of two Charlize Theron, 46, has been in the news recently for her unusual parenting style. After splitting from actor Sean Penn, Theron adopted her son Jackson in 2012 and later welcomed her daughter Augustus into the family.
Theron decides to keep her kids private despite her notoriety in order to protect them from the intrusive attention of paparazzi. Jackson in particular has gained notoriety for his outlandish wardrobe selections, frequently going with dresses and skirts.
Internet users are now having conversations regarding parental support and gender expression. Some people are concerned about Theron’s parenting choices and advise getting professional advice, while others applaud her for letting her child express themselves freely.
Theron’s parenting style is currently a subject of discussion and attention due to the changing social standards and attitudes regarding gender identity and expression.
While some see it as progressive and encouraging, others wonder about the ramifications and effects of giving in to a child’s choices at such an early age.
Despite these conversations, Theron is still committed to giving her kids love, support, and safety while juggling the challenges of being a public parent. How do you feel about Theron’s strategy? As a parent, how do you think you would respond to a situation like this?
Family fostered a 12-year-old boy that nobody wants – But soon they realized who he really is
According to recent data presented by the Children’s Bureau, the number of children in foster care nationwide is approximately 424,000. In Tennessee only, there are slightly less than 8,000 children who are waiting to be reunited with their families or find a forever home with people who would love them unconditionally. The sad reality is that the number of foster families in this state is less than 4,000.
Up until recently, one of those kids who found themselves in the system was 12-year-old Andrew from Nashville. This lovely boy spent half his life going from one family to another. However, that changed when he was welcomed in by a special foster family; the Gills.
Kevin and Dominique Gill have a son on their own, Joc, who made very good friends with Andrew the moment they first met. The boys just love hanging out together. They spend their time playing games, taking walks, and doing a bunch of fun stuff. Realizing how close the boys became, Kevin and Dominique decided to let them be best friends forever by filing adoption papers.
Andrew had no idea he was about to become an official member of the Gill family. One day, as he was taking a walk at the park with Molly Parker, an employee at the Youth Villages, he was met with the news that his foster parents are adopting him.
“I just turned around the corner and saw everybody,” Andrew said. “They asked ‘will you?’ and I said ‘yeah!’”
Besides being best friends, these boys now became brothers. Isn’t that the most beautiful thing ever?
