Credit family with an assist on child care
For athlete moms, it takes generations to raise a child.
"Thank God for grandparents!" said Phoenix Mercury point guard Jae Cross, the mother of two children - 6-year-old Jenisha and 19-month-old Taylor.
"They've helped us out a great deal," added her husband, Tom. "I don't know what we'd do without them."
Jae Cross, an Australian living in Houston, is among about two dozen women in the WNBA who balance basketball and babies. Tom Cross is director of player personnel for the Houston Comets. The couple met while he was working in Detroit and she was playing for the Detroit Shock. |
