Andre Agassi opened up about the idea of his kids taking up tennis as their careers
Andre Agassi sat for an interview with The Telegraph in 2018, where he opened up about his mindset involving his children, Jaden and Jaz Agassi, pursuing tennis as their careers. He revealed that he did not want his kids to take up the sport and emphasized his goal of breaking the 'cycle of dysfunction' from his childhood. Drawing from the experience of his time with his father, he said:
"Well, I do not wish my kids had taken up tennis. It’s too late to ask what I wish because they’re older; they’re 16 and 14," Andre Agassi said.
He added:
"My goal: We all try to break the cycle of dysfunction in our childhood. And I’ve done my best to do that in areas that I feel that I was denied, and I try to be the person that my father was to me in areas of offering strength. But you do a lot more learning as a parent than you do teaching, and I am always trying to learn."
Andre Agassi once shared an emotional confession about the relationship with his father, Mike. He also revealed how his experiences influenced his way of raising his kids.
