Charlize Theron 'dictated' by kids

Actress Charlize Theron says she is dictated by her children and has adapted her life to suit Jackson and August.

The 41-year-old actress says her entire life has shifted since she became a mother to her young kids and is now more careful about what projects she takes on and how long she's away from them for.


"My priorities have changed. I have kids now and nothing comes before that. I love that my children dictate my life now. I'm like a soldier being told which way to walk. It's great."

"I do press work around their schedule, and don't do anything for more than six or seven days, so I can come home. But when you work on a film, it's different. We have to pack up and find schools and stay together as a family," Theron said.
