Angelina Jolie & Brad Pitt let kids rule the roost
Perhaps somewhat unsurprisingly, Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt reportedly let their children rule the roost at their home in France.
The couple were recently rumoured to have ruled that their children - older sons Maddox & Pax, daughters Zahara & Shiloh, and newborn twins Knox & Vivienne - can’t be seen in public with nannies because they like to be seen as hands-on parents, not needing childcare support. But a source close to the family claims the couple aren’t concern about orchestrating that sort of thing: “Brad and Angelina don’t give a f**k what the world thinks of how they’re raising their kids.”
The source explained that the couple have “minimal staff” at home, with a weekend staff compromising of just a cook and security personnel: “They are very careful about where they stay or homes they buy so that security issues are a minimum.
“The main job of the security staff is making sure the children are safe and don’t hurt themselves.”
The source added that their current home in France is “dirty from the kids” but Angelina and Brad don’t mind: “there are toys everywhere, fingerprints and smudges on the walls, and stuff left on the floor all the time.
“It’s not unclean, just untidy but Angie and Brad don’t mind at all because they love how the house is full of life and joy.”

For a house to be a home, it must be liveable. Fingerprints on the wall and smudges are normal, they occur in homes where adults reside only. And toys, the highlite of child’s life, it’s okay. This tickles me pink, knowing the children have absolutely normal lives, they can play outside, and just run amuck. That’s what kids do.. A little cleaning by adults resolves the problems. 33 years ago, I returned home from work, to find my 7 year old so very proud of her art work, and the babysitter rather red faced.. My little one had written her name across the living room wall in red crayon, min 6 feel long and 2 feet tall. Memories to cherish..

Don’t all kids rule the roost. If I ran after my children and constantly cleaned up after them I would never have any time to do anything else. It does sound like a real family and not one of those “I had kids to get more picture deals” kind of things.
