[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Good to know celebrities have angry middle aged husbands too. Seriously, my girlfriends and I joke about how grumpy men get as they age. [/quote]

THIS!! A billion times. Between my own husband and a couple of guys I work with, it's really bizarre how some 50-something men become intensely seethingly frustrated with their lives as they hit middle age....[/quote]

I don't think it's so bizarre. What's bizarre is believing that it only happens to men and posting that idea to a forum with a few million pages proving otherwise. As someone who only recently acknowledged that my own life looks great from the outside but far less so within, I have to believe that there's way more going on in that marriage than any of us can know. Speculating is fun and soothing somehow.

I find it hard to believe that Brad has been an abusive father all these years and the incident last week is the only one. That's not to say that it's true or false, just that it's not the only part of the story. My own suspicion is that, whatever bad judgement they've [i]both[/i] had as parents over the years, it's come to a head as the kids have gotten older. Brad and Angelina have likely had an undercurrent of issues in their marriage, and used the public image of their big, happy family as cover. Earlier this year there were rumors they were thinking about adding a seventh child, the thought that came immediately to mind was "why?"

And again, with the announcement that she wanted to divorce "for the family" it's hard to believe that's the real reason. Wouldn't the report to CPS be a story before the divorce announcement?  That doesn't seem fishy to anyone else?

I think things definitely reached a breaking point, but I don't believe that only one of the spouses brought them there. [/quote]
