Angelina Jolie Talks About Her 6 “Very Individual” Kids

Angelina Jolie is not just a beautiful actress and a humanitarian. She is a mom of 6 children: Maddox, Pax, Zahara, Shiloh, and twins Vivienne and Knox. Sometimes she opens up and lets us know how it feels to raise so many children, and the way she talks about them is inspiring.

In her interview, Jolie says that her children teach her kindness. One of the most important things is to be honest and kind: “I’m very honest with my kids. And I’m very human with my kids.”

Being a mother became one of the main priorities in her life, and we can see Jolie with her kids everywhere — concerts, shops, and award shows. It seems she found her main role in life.

The actress tries to accept who they are and not push them to change against their will. As a wise mother, she develops their best qualities: “Be there to support and develop all the different aspects of who they are.”

It’s important for Angelina to respect her kids’ individuality because we’re different and everyone needs different things: “I have 6 very individual human beings in my home. [...] We’re supposed to help them figure out who they are.”

Jolie says her children’s kindness “has been very healing” to her and that this is what helped her during tough times.

“I’m not a perfect parent by any means,” she says. The actress asks herself ’Am I doing the right thing? Did I say the right thing?’ all the time as a caring mother and wants the best future for her kids.
