Roger Federer’s Mother Lynette Reveals How She Tackles 6 Grandkids and Their Childish Mischief at Times

The fans have always been curious about digging deeper into the lives of Roger Federer and his family. Ever since the tennis legend retired from his professional career, he took a completely different road from his previous schedule and started to be completely focused on the upbringing of his kids. However, it isn’t just him and his wife who crack their experience to take care of the little ones.

The tennis legend’s mother Lynette Federer takes great pride in instilling important values in her grandchildren. The Swiss tennis maestro and his wife Mirka have twin daughters, Charlene Riva and Myla Rose, born in July 2009, and two younger sons. In a recent interview, Lynette came forward to explain the importance of discipline, respect, and attentiveness in the upbringing of Federer’s kids and that of his sister, Diana’s twins.

“If I say that there is only one dessert, there is only one! I am generous, but strict,” Lynette explained, highlighting her disciplined approach to make sure all four kids grow up with innate values. This rule stands firm in every day-to-day activity, including when baking cupcakes with the grandchildren for school.

Along with that, Lynette also believes clear rules at the dining table are essential, such as not walking around or using mobile phones during meals. Prioritizing respect as one of the most important lessons for the grandchildren, Federer’s mom added, “That’s the most important thing,” stressing that she not only tells her grandchildren about respect but also shows it through her actions. “For example, by listening to them as carefully as adults.”

By instilling these values, the Swiss tennis maestro’s mother aims to guide her grandchildren to grow up with a strong moral foundation just like Federer, the epitome of elegance did. Being on the softer side, the former tennis pro has his own ways of training his children.

It has been a while since Roger Federer decided to hang up his racket for good. While everyone was excited to find out what his post-retirement schedule looks like, the former pro mentioned how he now acts as a driver for his children, as he takes them for training every now and then.

“You know, because I pack my schedule up, four kids will do that to you as well. So, I’m their professional driver nowadays and an organizer and a logistics man. Yeah, it’s definitely a test on a completely different level,” he said, giving ideas of his unique way of treating the little ones. As the tennis legend continues to seek comfort in being a soft and loving father, his image that the fans know about justifies what he says.
