What is your take on the Angelina Jolie/Brad Pitt divorce saga? What happened on the plane?

Brad is too busy shacking up with Ines de Ramon.

Brad’s 60th birthday is next month and I’m assuming he’s having a party and none of the kids will be there.

twitter made it and other things about kids popular again when the zahara news blew up. I am pretty the "friends" confirming it, is actually from tweets that posted things about them. I expect more news about Shiloh just using Jolie and him ghosting the twins graduation soon

International adoption in general seems more sketchy now than it did, say, 20 years ago. I've seen so many stories where it didn't go well or that the child had a lot of identity issues, understandably, but years ago this wasn't talked about.

"The number of children American parents adopt each year from abroad has declined rapidly too, from 23,000 in 2004 (an all-time high) to about 3,000 in 2019."

A lot of countries have closed their programs though. You can no longer adopt from Ethiopia, China etc. I think you can technically still adopt from South Korea which used to be the largest source of adoptees in the U.S. but don’t think you can adopt non-SN children from there anymore.

After a large number of Russian adopted children were killed by their American adoptive parents, Russia is closed to adoption too.

Turns out, international adoption is just a bad idea. Domestic adoption is problematic all-too-many times too.

Link please. Because I know that is not true

Not the previous poster but yeah there is truth to it

There were a couple deaths over the years but I seem to recall the tipping point was the father and the hot car death. These were used as the official reason by Russia but I also recall some political element as well.

I can believe wrote but I can also believe it’s made up by a fan and Daily Mail is running with it.

The Daily Mail ran a story about Sandra Bullock breaking up with her “husband” when he was actually dying. I just can’t believe tabloids.

Looks like all the adopted kids are alienated from Pitt.

Angelina Jolie wanted to create the perfect family and shopped around the world for her kids. Too bad she rejected the "father" part of the family.

Poor kids.

Those two boys she adopted worry me…hope they will be fine. To me, Maddox never liked Brad, seemed a bit like when kids are resentful of a new person their parent start dating; did he ever call him dad? Pax seem to take his queue from Maddox. Zahra and the biological kids seemed fine with Brad but who knows. I don’t care for Brad, care even less for Jolie, hopefully Brad and the kids can mend their relationship.

I agree he has less overt beef with Zahra but he seems very uninterested in her life. There was that really awkward clip where it was clear he had no idea she was going to Spelman.

She was collecting them, in all these colors. It’s sad. Hopefully they don’t end up messed up in the end.

Zahra was in an orphanage. Her mom came out a few years ago and was upset she couldn’t contact Angelina but if she was in an orphanage I don’t think she bought her.

At first Jolie said Zahara's mother was dead then later relented and allowed her to be alive. Still didn't allow contact that she said she would, though.

The Miraval lawsuit is primarily with the Stoli owner. So not sure how Brad could drop himself from being sued.

Zahara should get to know her birth mother.

Her bio mom said she's never spoken to her. ajt was never said she would be allowed contacting. Zahara's bio grandmother told the orphanage she was dead but the orphanage never double checked not they didn't get her proper help

Zahara and Shiloh are definitely not fine with Brad. Zahara recently left off his name in her sorority introductio while Shiloh doesn't use it on ig. Her teachers have started leaving it off in her dance videos as well.

Angi and Brad were having a spat.

Pax was mouthy and had an attitude towards Brad.

Brad gave him a tight slap. Angi flipped out.

They divorced because they have the money to divorce. They both were stupid.

Plenty of kids with living parents are in orphanages in other countries, for all kinds of reasons. In South America and Africa many kids whose parents can’t afford to feed them go to an orphanage, some even go home on the weekend as if it is some kind of boarding school arrangement. In Eastern European it is VERY common for children with physical, developmental or intellectual disability to be placed in a “group home” aka orphanage because parents don’t know how to handle them.

I can’t understand why people are ok with a white American wealthy woman, plucking an African kid out of an “orphanage” taking her away from her family, her culture, her religion, her language, her country, her continent. And just pluck the other kids, one by one to get a rainbow. She’s awful.

No it was Maddox.
