Strict Mom Charlize Theron Determined NOT To Spoil Her Kids

‘She’s afraid her kids could easily become brats,’ says a source.

Life as an A-lister can be a bubble of luxury — one that a source says Charlize Theron is determined to pop. “She’s afraid that her kids could easily become brats,” the source says of the actress’ son, Jackson, 5, and daughter, August, almost 2. “Charlize was raised on a farm and did a ton of chores, which gave her a strong work ethic. She wants that for her kids, so she makes sure they clean up after themselves. They also donate old toys and wear clothes from Target, no designer stuff. Charlize is strict with them, but she’s extremely loving and a great mom. She just wants them to have as normal a life as possible.”
