It's not easy being a Brady. According to Gisele Bündchen, her son, Benjamin, has been bullied for being the son of NFL star Tom Brady. It seems people expect the teen to have the same athletic prowess as his famous father, something Benjamin just can't compete with at only 13.

Gisele made the revelation during a recent interview
Benjamin's athletic interests mostly lie elsewhere
He is more interested in pursuing his "non-ball" sports interests, which include surfing and skiing, according to his mom. Benjamin also loves jiu-jitsu, just like his older brother and sister. "They're all like senseis," Gisele joked of the three kids.
Tom's oldest son is a different story
In addition to Benjamin and daughter Vivian, whom he shares with Gisele, Tom also has a 15-year-old son named Jack from his previous relationship with Bridget Moynahan. Gisele said Jack is currently "quarterbacking" with a goal of following in his father's footsteps and attending the University of Michigan.

We hope people stop putting pressure on Benjamin
While we're disappointed to hear that Benjamin has been teased and bullied, we're so thrilled to know that his loving parents are there to support him in whatever he wants to do, even if it's following his own path and leaving the traditional athletics to the other Bradys in the family.
