Angelina Jolie: I feel so much more for my adopted kids

Actress thinks daughter Shiloh has had less to deal with

Wednesday, 14 May 2008

Angelina Jolie admits she has stronger feelings for her adopted kids than her daughter Shiloh.

The actress thinks Maddox, 7, Pax, 4, and Zahara, 3, have had more to deal with in their short lives.

‘I think I feel so much more for Maddox and Zahara because they are survivors,’ she explains.

‘Shiloh seems so privileged from the moment she was born, I have less inclination to feel for her.

‘I met my other kids when they were six months old, they came with a personality. A newborn really is this…blob!’

But Ange, 32, says she’s careful not to treat Shiloh, who turns 2 this month, differently.

‘I have to make sure that I don’t ignore her needs, just because I think the others are more vulnerable,’ she tells OK!

Ange adopted Maddox from Cambodia in 2002. Three years later, she took on Zahara, who she met in an Ethiopian children's home.

Pax was abandoned at birth by his mum in Vietnam, so Ange adopted him in March last year.

She is thought to be expecting twins with partner Brad Pitt, 44, this summer.

What she means is that she loves shiloh but she dont want her adopted children to feel like they dont belong her or something else she dont want them to think about that their real mother left them and shiloh has nothing to think about i mean she is whit her real mother and father but and angelina want her adopted children to feel like home she is a very god mother and have worked hard to make the adopted children to feel that they belong in this familj come on if you had a adopted child who is from africa or some where else and then you have a biological child if you just let them be like this when they grow up the will hate each other and be jealous so angelina is doing a great work and she is wonderful person and people just write OMG angi hates shiloh , did angi ever say i hate shiloh ? NO !!! , she is only saying that she feels more for her adopted children. becuse she dont want them to feel lonely, but shiloh she will always be just a regular child in brangelinas family , and yes a newborn child is like litle cute blob they sleep all the time almost ant that why angi are whit her adopted child but now when shiloh is grown up she is beginig to have a personality and angi is spending as mutch time as she can whit her and her adopted children you know in a interwiev angelina sad this about shiloh : she´s full of light and love she´s just a little honey , and very, very funny ... i´m recognizing some of myself in her. DO you people realy think that a mother who hate her child would say that about her. and you know just becuse she is famous is does not mean she is not a regular person , she is the only one i hollywood that really cares about the world and the people in it. she is wonderful and a good person. you know she sad that when shiloh where newborn and of course she look like a little cute blob when she is newborn , she sad all that when she was newborn. now shiloh is 2 years old

Jolie's comments about her "feeling more" for her adopted children than her own are typical of self-hating, liberal America. It's really not about these adopted kids, it's about Jolie and the statement she wants to make to the world. How could anyone live like that?

Angelina is well out of order for calling newborns a blob babies all have their own little personalities from the day they are born and she'd know this if she actually looked after the kids instead of used a nanny.

How on earth can she say that about her own baby? A baby isn't a BLOB, it's a human baby, she goes on about Shiloh being privileged, but she's not if her mother feels like that about her! I agree with Jemma, how is Shiloh going to fel later on in life? Why is she having more kids if we prefers her adopted ones? She's a nasty piec of work and a show-off.
