Sia: Parenting is both painful and rewarding


finds parenting both “painful and rewarding”.

The ‘Chandelier’ hitmaker adopted two teenage boys in 2019, and has admitted one of her sons is “doing better than the other”, as she says it has been difficult for them to adjust to having someone in their lives who will “love them forever”.

Speaking on ‘The Project’, she said: “It’s hard. It’s been both painful and rewarding and all I can say really is that I just have to just keep reminding them that I’ll be here, I’m never going anywhere, and I love them.

“I think it’s just scary to have someone say ‘I’ll love you forever’ when you’ve been in 28 different homes your entire life.”

Meanwhile, previously said motherhood is the “best thing she’s ever done”.

She explained: “Motherhood is the best thing I’ve ever done. It’s one of the hardest, but I have obviously such an overflow of love that I could definitely see myself doing it again, but not for a while. The next thing I’m planning to do is foster actual infants.

“Maybe [their mother] is drug-addicted and then I could help look after them until, you know, their mum can get back on the wagon or an adoptive home is found. If I can do that then I think I’ll feel like I’m superhuman.”

And the 45-year-old singer – who is now a grandmother, after one of her sons welcomed a child last year – also admitted she is still “learning how to be a mother”.

Asked about her new responsibilities as a grandmother she said: “I’ve decided to stop talking about it. I made a bit of a boo-boo because they’re my new children.

“I’ve only had them for a year. I’m such an open book that I forget not everyone else is. While I didn’t get into trouble for blabbing about his [her son’s] children – I was peeing, which is where I have my best thoughts, and I realised that it was not my news to share with the world … I instantly realised I can’t talk about my children’s private lives. I’m just learning how to be a mother.”
