[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Supposedly Maddox did not attend Brad's recent visitation with the rest of the kids.[/quote]

I don't understand why it's Maddox's decision.  If Brad's his father, then he goes.  I'm not divorced, so my kids don't have a choice about whether they're around me; we live together and we're together, even when they're mad at me.  IMO, barring serious abuse, kids shouldn't get the choice about whether they spend time with their parent.[/quote]

Well, he's 15. In custody disputes, older children have a say. And their relationship and argument have been used as the reason for his parents splitting up. He might be very angry at his dad, and his mom doesn't seem the type to make them work through things.[/quote]

PP here-That's not to Angelina's credit that she wouldn't expect her son to try to work things through, even if he's very angry.  The fact that his father is not living with him isn't a reason he should get to make the choice not to be with his father.  If his parents weren't divorcing, presumably he'd have to be in the home with his father and would not have the choice.[/quote]

I agree.  A good mother would make sure that Maddox at least attended the meeting with his father, even if he didn't speak or said some hard words.  That was what I was getting at.
