Sandra Bullock Says She Prioritizes Her Kids Over Acting Projects

The Oceans 8 star has made no secret of how much her family means to her, and is unapologetic about only accepting work that fits around her children. Speaking at the CNBC Changemakers Summit in New York in April, Bullock revealed that filming Practical Magic 2 had to work around her children's school schedule…

"I knew my kids were out of school. I'm not going to sacrifice my time with my kids," the Unforgivable actress bluntly said. She went on: "I do not do my best work if my children are struggling or if they need something and I can't facilitate it. I'm raising my children, not anybody else."

The Lost City actress also opened up about what she believes many working parents experience – feeling as though they have to pretend their children don't exist – adding: "I'm tired of hiding."
