By Alexandra Heilbron on June 7, 2007 | 20 Comments


Brad PittBrad Pitt, who became a dad of four in a little more than two years, is reportedly “physically and emotionally” tired of taking care of the kids, according to Hollywoodrag.com. Pitt and Angelina Jolie are currently in Prague where Jolie is filming Wanted. “Brad loves those kids and he doesn’t want to give up all the responsibility,” a source said. “He just wants Angelina to do her share and take up the slack.” Meanwhile, 24 hours is reporting that Jolie has fallen for a Prague orphan and wants to adopt the boy. Jolie and Pitt have three adopted children, all under the age of six, and a one-year-old biological daughter.

    Jolie has found another orphan to cart home? This woman has a problem. My wife has the same problem, only it’s with shoes. But they are fairly easy to care for.

    How can they give all those kids the attention, they need? Just wait until they are teenagers, there will be lots to read about in the scandal sheets. We’ll see how long this couple lasts with all that baggage.

    Way to go Angelina. You do what you have to do and as to anyone wwhining well there are lots of starving kids in the world who need good homes and if your family feels shoes are more important than children..well to each his own, I personally feel that it is amazing. Parenting is hard but it benefits so many and by the way there are lots of actors kids out there who are not in the scandal sheets what an arrogant and pompous thing to say or may envious.And my final comment “Welcome to the family! The more the merrier!”

    There’s nothing wrong with a man staying home with his kids, but this situation is just ridiculous! Angelina Jolie collects children desperately trying to pacify this “fix” she’s trying to satisfy with all these orphanages she visits, and adopting these children before the previous one (like Pax) has had time to emotionally adjust! Each child probably feels emotionally abandoned with her flying off all over the world, making more movies, and leaving Brad home alone to care for 4 children. This woman is emotionally disturbed, and I really dislike her. And then there’s their biological child Shiloh. WHEN do you ever see this woman paying attention, and caring for this child??! This couple will not last, and I dare say that Shiloh will grow up feeling deep resentment and will have serious psychological problems, if not hatred, towards her mother.

    i do indeed agree with bra’s thoughts on angie helping if she really wants a house full then do your part. i raised 4 but not alone and not with out hubbys help it takes 2 to tangle so brad give her your opiniion before it is to late..ps maybe your first wife would have been a great mom of one adopted.. toodles

    That woman has always been wacko !! And COLD !! How can any loving, caring person go into a village or orphanage and just pick out a child to adopt ????? Why doesn’t she just leave the children where they are and sponser them all. She certainly can afford to. The way she jet sets around the world, she could visit them every couple a weeks. I sense a VERY insecure person here. Brad would have been much better off staying with Jennifer, but he has now made his new bed, so he’ll just have to lay in it. Looks good on him !!! What goes around, comes around. And, I also feel extremely concerned and sorry for their very own daughter. I have never seen a picture with Jolie holding her.
    I agree that this relationship will not last.
    The sooner they end it, the better, before any more kids are displaced.

    You’re right! We already know that Hollywood is responsible for some of the most disfunctional families on the globe. When you consider a Hollywood marriage is lucky to last five years, it’s a shame when these celeb couples have children at all!!!! The legacy they leave behind is like a train wreck that destroys everything in its path, leaving carnage and debris that may never fully be cleaned up.

  9. Rebecca • June 8, 2007 @ 4:30 PM

    Personally, I think that Brad should have stayed with Jennifer Aniston….she was/is A LOT more stable, caring, loving, etc., than Angelina could ever be. What possessed him to leave Jennifer for Anelina, I can’t comprehend. Not to mention, EVERY marriage has there ups and downs…you learn to lean on EACH other, not a co-star!! As far as the children go, DON’T adopt anymore. I have NOT seen one picture of Angelina holding Shiloh, however, there are LOTS of her holding the other children. Shiloh is going to have some serious issues to deal with as she continues to grow!! Brad, get out NOW while you can and take Shiloh with you…go back to Jennifer!!

  10. Leanne • June 8, 2007 @ 5:33 PM

    This story is a bunch of hogwash – Angelina is NOT adopting a baby from Prague and they BOTH look after the kids. When Brad is working, Angie is main caretaker, and when she is working, he is. She’s only filming a few weeks this year, so in actuality, SHE is the one looking after the kids more as Brad has been filming a lot this year. I wish you guys would get your facts straight!!!!

  11. Leanne • June 8, 2007 @ 5:35 PM

    Sorry Nora but there are plenty of photos of Angelina holding Shiloh – hate to burst your bubble…

  12. Helen • June 8, 2007 @ 7:32 PM

    I agree with most of the comments stating that Angie is a little demented. I too have never seen a picture of her having anything to do with her own daughter. With her being so close with her own mother you would think she would realize how important that would be. Brad, you need your head examined for leaving the beautiful, loving “best friend” you did for an unstable wierdo with a little sex appeal. Looks fade after awhile, a deep friendship lasts forever. Too bad so sad!

    Kudos to Jolie and Pitt. They’re doing their part in making the world a more compassionate, caring world. And good for them. I still have a pulse.

    How can they give all those kids the attention, they need?

    Tammy there are alot of people with alot less money than these people that have more kids than they do, my mom for instance was one of 14 kids and survived a big family and turned out fine, so maybe you should think before you open your mouth, people of there tax bracket can afford to hire people for extra help like nannies etc,.. trust me these kids will be fine.

    AS for there person who likes Brad with Jenn, Jenn chose her career over kids and a man can only wait so long, Jen wanted to be in the movies and Brad wanted to be a dad, maybe she should have focused on her marriage rather than her career, cause she lost one hot pony!

    Great for Angelina….a wonderful human being…the people criticizing her are jealous and angry because she is adopting children that are not white and they cant bear the thought that these “undesirable children” will have a privilidge life. You know based on the fact they keep saying she is not holding her child which is not true and how would they know this…is Angie responsible for the pictures being printed….people are writing articles and producing pictures to support their stories so they mostly show her with the adopted kids because the whole white community is up is arms about her adopting the kids that arent white…the same way the attack Madonna…what makes people so ugly on the inside? evil evil people!

  16. emc • June 9, 2007 @ 11:07 AM

    Okay well first of all, none of us REALLY know what goes on behind closed doors right? So we don’t REALLY know who is taking more care of the kids. I am just going to say that perhaps Angie and Brad should consider a break in all the adoptions because little Pax is still adjusting, Maddox is in his first year of school, Zahara is what three years old? can anyone say JEALOUS, and little Shiloh is around a year and needs time with her mother. You can’t possibly disagree that a baby should have their mother. And in response to Tammy’s statement about them hiring a nanny, I had a nanny from the time i was 6-weeks old till I was 13, and because of that I do NOT have a good relationship with either of my parents.

  17. Teri • June 9, 2007 @ 1:32 PM

    I am a bit confused. Is this not the same woman who for the entire time her and Brad where working together that nothing was going on.OOOPsss oh no now that it is a photo oppotunity, gives an interview saying they really where sleeping together.Perfect thing for a parent to teach a child, to lie and to sleep with or women’s husbands.If family is so important to her perhaps she should work on her own relationship with her father.Unfortunately I believe she is using these kids for her own peace of mind….that is very sad.

  18. JOANNE BAREVICH • June 10, 2007 @ 9:23 AM

    I LOVE ANGELINA AND BRAD THEY ARE VERY GENEROUS AND LOVING I WISH THEY WOULD ADOPT ME.

  19. Lori • June 10, 2007 @ 10:07 AM

    Give it up people….don’t believe everything you hear or read in the tabloids!!!! Does anyone not have anything better to do that thrash Angelina? Get a life people! And remember…until you can walk in Ms. Jolie’s shoes…don’t criticize…she IS a celebrity who is doing good work on various humanitarian causes…would you be happier if she was acting irrosponsibly like Britney or Paris…they are an embarressment to the title celebrity…whereas Angeline Jolie is an inspiration and role model….

  20. Shazam Says!!!! • June 13, 2007 @ 5:33 PM

    All of you people know their kids’ names and all of that. Man, you people’s lives must be quite void. Who cares about these people? Adopt or have as many children you want. It’s your choice, quite simply.

    Get your own house in order before you even worry about someone who doe not give a shit about you or what you have to say.

    Good Grief!
