Naomi Watts happy to be older mother

Naomi Watts says she is happy that she isn’t a young mother because she feels she couldn’t have been as dedicated to her two sons as she is now. The Australian actress gave birth to her first son, Sasha (now four) when she was 38 and says she’s glad she waited. Naomi, who is also mother to two-year-old Samuel with partner Liev Schreiber said, “I had a lot I wanted to do when I was younger, and perhaps I wouldn’t have been as focused. I got a lot out of the way in terms of my own dreams. You grow up and hopefully become more self-aware. I think I’m a better parent.” She also admitted that she enjoys seeing Schreiber with their kids. “Liev’s moments with the children are amazing. The games just go on and on. I’ve always said that men are great in the moment, but not good in the planning, like, ‘Is there milk in the fridge?’ and ‘Do we have diapers?’”
