Tom Brady knows he didn’t always score a touchdown in parenting.
And the former NFL star is not afraid to admit he didn’t always do the best job while raising son Jack, 17, whom he shares with ex Bridget Moynahan, as well as son Benjamin, 14, and daughter Vivian, 11, who he coparents with ex-wife Gisele Bündchen.
“Being a parent is probably the hardest job all of us have,” Tom admitted during the Fortune Global Forum in New York City Nov. 12. “And we screwed up a lot and I’ve screwed up a lot as a parent.”
The 47-year-old added that he didn’t want to seem like “some expert in parenting,” but when it comes to his children, he does whatever he can to try and “be dependable and consistent for them.” For him, that also means supporting whatever choices they make in life.
According to Tom, his parenting style traces back to how his own parents, Galynn and Thomas Brady, acted toward him growing up, which he feels was a “blessing” for him.
