While Johansson recently joked about battling it out with her 2-year-old son, she’s previously admitted when raising her daughter Rose, the toddler stage proved as a challenge back in 2017.
The actress joked onThe Skinny Confidential Him & Her Podcastthat raising a toddler was like “being in an emotionally abusive relationship.”
“It’s really tough,” she said. “I remember my daughter when she was 2, I said, ‘This is great. I don’t know what everybody is talking about.’ And then she turned 3, and it’s like being in an emotionally abusive relationship.”
“It’s just so intense. No reasoning,” Johansson continued. “Very intense emotional swings and like, so bossy and adamant, and it’s just crazy,” adding she was “up and down constantly.”
