But it doesn’t work that way, Brad tells Britain’s Hello! “The rule is that everyone’s got to make something for someone else. You’ve got to put time into it. Then, when they give to each other, it’s really sweet. The gift-giving is a very nice time for us.”
While most kids would be unhappy with some handmade piece of junk, the Brangelina brood is quite content because they don’t know any better. “The kids don’t ask for big gifts for the reason that they don’t see a lot of the American cartoon television, which is packed with all those manipulative commercials for big toys that look so fantastic,” the 44-year-old actor adds.
Eventually, all this holiday talk gets Brad into an emotional mood. “It’s chaos at times but there’s also such joy in our house right now,” he goes on to say. “I look down at the family and I see our boy from Vietnam (Pax) and our daughter from Ethiopia (Zahara) and our girl’s from Namibia (Shiloh was born there) and our son who’s from Cambodia (Maddox), and… they are all brothers and sisters, man. They are all the same blood. It is such elation to see them all living together, and getting along together, and to know that we were able to give them a home - in some cases, to give them a life. It’s a wonderful thing that we are able to do this because of the jobs we have - and it’s a selfish thing, too, because the rewards are extraordinary. We’ve always said that we’ll carry on until we find a reason to stop doing this - and, no, we haven’t found that reason yet.”

I think that’s a great idea! The more kids they have the harder its going to get though! I think it’s teaching the kids a really good lesson that even though they have a lot of money to buy extravagant gifts, it’s the ones that have been really thought out that mean the most.
They are so self righteous….. I love how they say these things they think are so deep and educational.
Like YAY parents of the year…..when the fact is, lots of parents do this, so they don’t make their kids turn into spoiled brats.
I think they have pyschological issues, I mean really who in their right minds would have so many children so fast. I mean fair enough if you’re spending time with them (each one), but i’m guessing the nanies do. I guess finacially they whore them out enough to pay for anything they want; but something just isn’t right.
I remember Brad saying he wants more than 7 or something like that. Slow down mate, they are children, not toys you can fling around. And try and convince the public you are all happy and “never argue”. Screams bullshit all the time. Media whores.
Sad attention whores. They really do believe that whatever comes out of their mouths is profound. Half of the time you see these freaks with these children they’re leaving a toy store. Sure give home made gifts for Christmas. It doesn’t matter because in a couple of months they will be in stores buying them all kinds of expensive shit. The two really need to get over themselves.
NO they would rather spend their money on private jets and huge mansions.. Who cares that the kids get
homemade gifts.. Why not get Ben Affleck and Angie together to help the African refugees..
Um what about you new twins that were born in France.. Brad??
It is so none of my business, but I really wish they’d stop at six. You can’t help feeling some of the kids will feel the loss of attention the larger this family grows.
Brad loose the pepe le peu moustache.
Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah!
#8 couldn’t agree more!
Like Anon says those kids are always in toy stores getting stuff. Also they are all wearing 100+ dollar outfits everyday.
#4 you are so right…a toy store or an art store…you are so right…I think I have had enough of these two…go ahead and have 10 more babies and leave us alone…you two are not the only ones in the world that have adopted or given birth…all you hear is my kids, my children, my blah blah blah….one day there won’t be any more babies and youngsters and they will be teens and brad and ang will wonder what they got themselves into….but they won’t be together anymore so who really gives flying fark…it’s HOLLYWOOD baby!
Duh…Brangelina, your kids don’t ask for big gifts for the reason that they can have them and you can buy them any time of the day, unlike any other kids who have to wait for any special occasion just to have them. Besides you are always at toy stores, remember?
glad that he is raising them to show that color doesnt matter you are who you are and that one color is not better than the other and to judge by character not color! good looking out Brad. Maybe it will in the future stop all this racism and one race thinking they are better than all the other races.The kids of the future are blessed because with all this race mixing and breeding a lot of white kids have vlack brithers and sisters and from immediate families not distant, im talking like britney Spears whether she like it or not her kids have half black brother and sister and the sister was there first!~
thats black and brothers!
