What's creepy about having family members on your payroll? A lot of people on DCUM are always extolling the virtues of having family around to watch their kids. Why should she be different? |

It's not creepy to have family members on your payroll. It is very creepy to have the BROTHER that she has been photographed **making out** with watching her children all while she's kicking her husband to the curb. |

Well, she did make a big deal about not having been intimate with Brad till the Jen thing was officially over.

She did not make out with her brother. The photo shows her kissing her brother at an award ceremony. Some people kiss on the cheeks. Others kiss on the lips. She's French and the French do a lot of mouth kissing. Do you have a picture where they swapped tongues or saliva? Otherwise, it's just a kiss. People are so judgmental about adults. As for her brother, he has always been around, just as my sisters have always been around me. They will be around if I was to ever divorce my DH. I suppose it is the same for AJ. It's okay if your life is different from another OP. That doesn't make your situation better or worst. Just different. |

How do you know? Heck, you didn't even know that AJs brother was on the payroll until today. And what is wrong with putting your family on a payroll. People do it all the time with family and friends they trust. That's what a decent person would do, take care of deserving family. I forgot. This is America and people only look out for themselves. |

Why so angry, hon? |

Brad's brother has his own career and so does Julie's husband. They're both doing well for themselves without him. |

Either he didn't try to hijack a fuel truck, or the police don't care. I'm betting on the former. |

I guess we don't know exactly. We are all just speculating on the cause and what happens in a relationship gone wrong. There's always something and it's always a built up to the final decision.
The positive thing is, at least she's trying to get her life together and think outward with a humanitarian focus. That's more than what most of us can and will do, with or without kids. |

I am just so struck by the fact that at the end of the day, these people are really not so different than any of the rest of us, despite all their money and hired help. It's the same old shit we're all struggling with.
They're raising 6 kids together. SIX KIDS. Of course that's incredibly difficult and stressful. Who the hell wouldn't end up divorced in that scenario. I'm raising two and I feel like I have no idea what the hell I'm doing or which end is up some of the time. Can you imagine SIX??? Same with the Jon and Kate Plus 8 people. It's too much. |

I haven't read the whole thing, but this is interesting: The Brangelina Split’s French Connection: How Angelina Jolie Works the Press
If there are this many people following them so closely all the time, it seems there would be a lot more evidence/rumor about Pitt being abusive. I've always thought she seemed to enjoy playing the role of righteous mother and I believe the bit about her not having any friends because witnesses (other than paid staff) make it hard to control the narrative. |

CPS and the police are different agencies. The LAPD doesn't have the case. CPS does. |

No. I can not imagine 6 - especially with all of the traveling, commitments (work and social) that those parents have. It's got to be crazy stressful especially now that the kids are getting older and are asserting their wills more and more. When they were little the nannies could watch them. But now that they are older and wanting to do more and more things....ugh. They have their hands full. Maybe more so than they know. I hope they can get a handle on it soon. |
