The mother of two opens up about the joys and fears that come with parenthood.
While that concern has been allayed, she continues to tackle a far bigger fear — a fear for the safety of her children in a world where their race alone can make them targets of hatred and violence. It’s something Bullock says she thinks about “24/7.”
“As a parent of a Black child you have to,” the 57-year-old explained. “You know, as a white woman, I didn't have to think about that until the day I fell in love like I did. You realize that there is a whole universe that you have to educate yourself to.”But there is one parenting topic that comes with equal portions of joy and concern for Bullock — thinking about her kids growing up and going off to college.
“That both excites me and scares the hell out of me!” she said with a laugh. “I have a daughter who is so frickin' smart and so stealth. I mean, she's a shape-shifter. Louie is a 100-year-old man in a 11-year-old body, and he's just the philosopher and the laid-back guy.”
