There is no doubt that Angelina is an intelligent, committed and intense woman. But, having said that, hope Brad Pitt really, really thought this whole relationship/ adopting the kids and having a kid with her ... out, because, well, it's a lifetime committment and Angelina's a handful and it appears to me, that she calls all the shots in her relationship with Pitt and that she's the boss when it comes to the kids.
Good luck to him!

Re H

I have been telling my friends the same thing, I personally don't think Brad knew what he was getting into.... I have the feeling Angelina having his biological child was a compromise so she could adopt more. Remember she said before she wouldn't have her own biological kids.....

I remember reading an comment by Matt Damon, a young guy who I admire for his intelligence and professionalism. He said something to the effect that he would have a serious relationship or marry "a civilian". And he did just that.
As far as Pitt goes, it's one thing to walk away from a relationship that turns out to be more than you bargained for (or less, for that matter), but once children are involved, if that person is a "mench" (a human being), it's a whole different story. My instincts are that Pitt jumped head first into a pool of quick sand.
I also read on a site, maybe this one, that someone who knows Angelina said that she's the sort of person who gets what she wants and when she's done with you, it's over. We'll see.

Is Jolie 'mentally' attempting to compensate some guilt or is it for publcity? Like Mia Farrow, and the late Josephine Baker, who adopted so many children, I just do not see Pitt being able to cope with Jolie's future adoptions. Brad Pitt is just a old-fashioned boy from OK/MI...At some point, Pitt will just break down. I guess he bargained for more than he can handle. I think Jolie is nuts!
Just go back to acting, instead of trying too hard to save the world.

I totally agree of somebody who thinks that AJ is nuts because of what she did her past and still doing another complicated mistake by adopting dozen kids yet cannot commit marriage..This is not a healthy life to raise their kids...

I think what Pitt is going through was described by Arthur Rimbaud's poem, "A Season in Hell".

At the end of the poem it says "And you will stay a hyena".

That will become Brad's fate.

If Brad had stayed with horse-faced Jennifer Aniston, he'd be childless and unhappy right now, trying to deal with all her insecurities. Not wanting kids, focused on a silly career, her hair, her skinny body. Yawn!! A guy likes an independent, intelligent and passionate woman as his partner, if he is to make anything worhwhile out of his life. I say Angelina is a real, strong woman any guy (who's worth his salt) will be very proud of. Bravo Brad !!

at least jen does not tell the world every time she does some good jolie is all about me pitt is a wimp and jolie has shown the world he has no guts a man will only take so much humilation before he bites back if he is a man in any other country but africa jolie would not beable to adopt with her background she should get over her self as u answer to a higher being one day. africa can solve its own problem we do not need the jolie-pitts who are not role models for our young adulter is not admirable

really who cares?????
a.k.a who gives a damn about this freak show
