Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie are one of the most talked about couples in Hollywood. Not only because of their craft in acting but also because of their values when it comes to family and humanity.
According to eonline.com, the couple boasts their imperfect but happy family especially their six wonderful children, Maddox, 14, Pax, 11, Zahara, 10, Vivienne, 7 and Knox, 7, during an interview.
Brad heartwarmingly shares that they have always wanted to have a dozen children but unfortunately, they "crapped out after six."
Pitt also added "Everyone talks about the joy of having kids-blah, blah, blah. But I never knew how much I could love something until I looked in the faces of my children."
With six children in under one roof, Brad admitted that sometimes their home can have episodes of "chaos, total chaos." However, he assures everyone that despite of the chaos, their family life is "so much fun."
Brad said that when it comes to his boys, he's a disciplinarian father but becomes lenient when it comes to his daughters. "Girls do no wrong...I feel like my job is to show 'em around, help them find what they want to do with their life, put as many things in front of them, and pull them back when they get out of line, so they know who they are," he added.
In a report by people.com, Brad Pitt admitted that he was raised in a religious family in Springfield, Missouri. Though he raises his kids different from his upbringing, Pitt says that his childhood still holds key points on how he takes care of his children.
Brad is not using "the Christian guilt about what you can and cannot, should and shouldn't do" method in raising his kids. Instead, he uses the one thing that he cannot forget about his parents and his childhood. "One thing my folks always stressed was being capable, doing things for yourself. He was really big on integrity - and that informed a lot of what [we] try to do now," he explains.
The actor also shared how his family life helped him improved his craft and how it helped to become a better actor. "I was a pretty good actor before, but definitely hit-and-miss. I think I became a really good actor. I'm sure a lot of that has to do with age and wisdom too. But I see an absolute shift from the day I started my family."
