What are your thoughts on Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt adopting all these children? While I think it is great that they are showing an interest and helping out people in need, their lifestyle is not overly conducive to raising children. A friend of mine was a nanny for Madonna and she was never around. Her kid was being raised by a nany all the time. I assume both of them will continue to work and travel thus leaving the children in the care of nanny's and help. Now I am not saying this is a worse life than the child may have had in their home country, but are they doing it for the right reasons? I am not so sure. Let me know what you think. Thanks.

I think that while their hearts are in the right place, it's becoming a bit of a circus side show. Didn't Mia Farrow do more or less the same thing? I don't think it's fair on the kids.

I think we still owe them the benefit of a doubt. Angelina and Brad may lead very busy lives but I'm sure the people who allowed them to adopt those children have observed their sincerity. Those children don't just get adopted that easily and I'm sure they've finalized all agreements with these celebrities before releasing the children. Plus I think Angelina and Brad have gone through so much with their relationship and love that they wouldn't probably want people to think that they're just doing this for reasons other than giving the children better lives.

I think this is such a dog and pony show for Angelina Jolie. She wants the free publicity. The shame is she is taking kids that are from such poor backgrounds and putting them in a rich life style. I am afraid these kids will grow up to be as shallow as most rich privaleged kids. Look at Paris Hilton she has so much money she feels she has the right to do what every she chooses without consiquences.

The other thing is that these kids are not getting a mother and father they are getting a nanny.

Look at the alternative to adoption.. the kids could still be in orhanages right now or even worse. If they have the money to adopt, and the money to have nannies to help them, let them be.
