Jennifer Lopez gets mom-shamed just like the rest of us. The Boricua pop star opened up about her motherhood journey in a recent interview with Fox 5 New York's Rosanna Scotto. J.Lo revealed she feels judged for homeschooling her children instead of giving them a "normal" life. Wow! This is pretty deep and it makes me see her differently. Watch what she had to say.

Around the 5:20 timestamp, Lopez talks about her decision to homeschool the twins. "We don't have a normal life, I don't have normal kids," she told Scotto. J.Lo also added, "Everybody's like, 'You should have them in school, they need friends.' It drives me – it can drive you crazy."
I love that she was so candid. From the outside, it seems like Lopez has it all figured out and lives in a perfect bubble. In reality, she's dealing with pressures and judgements just like the rest of us. You can even argue that her situation is more intense since she's a single mom juggling fame and all that comes with it.
Homeschooling her kids is her decision and people should just back off. "We'll get them educated – homeschool is great for them, when we have to do it. The most important thing is that they're with their mom — that they don't feel abandoned by a parent," she added.
It sounds like the twins are lucky to have a mami like her and they're in good hands.
