And brad doesn’t give a damn about pax, okay? The tabloids have let us know that Angelina is pretty much their only parent.

LOOL as if any 8 year old boy would want to leave his xBox, mansion and his family and go live with a mother that he never met who happens to be a ex-heroin addict. it looks like the tabloid are out of materials…

the mother was a heroin addict. And it’s too bad that shallow people like you can’t accept that someone could truly love their adopted child.

The child is Pax Jolie-PITT. He has a father and the last time I checked, so did the other five. They are not living in a single parent household, like the tabloids would like us to believe.

But all of the current research points to the importance for adopted children to have their adoptive parents help them forge strong and healthy relationships with their natural ones. Are you saying all of these researchers and current adoption practices are wrong? Your attitude is what is wrong with adoption today. The only guaranteed outcome from Pax meeting with his natural mother is he will have a better understanding of why he is where he is now.

my co-worker’s sister-in-law got paid $12019 the prior week. she gets paid on the laptop and bought a $391300 house. All she did was get fortunate and put to work the steps uncovered on this web site>>> lazycash1DOTcom

With all due respect to gossip cop, although I BELIEVE YOU IN YOUR OPINIONS I believe you have inside sources as much as I believe the tabloids have theirs.

Research? Have you ever been around adopted children or have been adopted yourself? I’m guessing not because of your response. My younger sister was adopted & I was nearly adopted myself 10 years ago(I was in foster care for 12 years), so don’t tell me that I know nothing about adoption. You’re what’s wrong with the misunderstanding of these things, relying too much on research when you should be looking at those in the situations. Most of the time, telling them too much information at a young age will confuse them. Now I’m guessing Pax(along with his other siblings who were adopted) is aware of his origins, but I’m sure that’s as far as it goes. It’s not stated that it’s important for the adopted parents to help them forge a strong & healthy relationship with their biological parents. You tell the child all they need to know, without speaking negatively, about their biological families and give them the information that’s needed in case they want to look for them. Usually this is done with the child is old enough to fully understand what’s going on & will be mature enough to be secure & happy with the people that raised them. It seems to me that one that doesn’t know enough is you. If you have never been around it or been in that place yourself then you have no idea what you’re talking about.

Actually, why yes I am adopted, thankyouverymuch. So please, don’t tell me I know “nothing” about adoption. I urge you to read the works of Pauline Boss and others who are researching in the field of adoption loss and ambiguous grief. Children *do* need to know more than just their origins. I am NOT saying children should be put in harmful or dangerous situations just to build a relationship with their natural families. What I AM saying is that children need more than the perfunctory, “this is where we got you” talk. Your belief of more accurate and information simply “confusing” an adopted child is outdated and inhumane. I supposed you are also among the mindset that believe amended and sealed birth records of adopted people are a good thing, too.

Obviously you misinterpreted what I was saying the first time. I do think it’s good for the child to know their origins, but only when the parents feel they’re mature enough to handle that information. Yes, I do think some things should be sealed, all of my records are sealed & so are my sister’s. But my foster parents have her original birth certificate & a picture of her mother. Every case is different & you can’t say what’s right for every adopted child. What worked for you doesn’t help in another person’s case. But I take that to heart when you say that my way of thinking is “inhuman” or “outdated” because it isn’t.
All I was saying was that if this story was true then it would be understandable for her to worry. That’s what parents do, though I’m sure Pax is very secure & knows that Brad & Angie are his parents and they love him very much. No one wants to see their child get their hopes up and then possibly get let down.

@Valency Speaks I’m not uninformed on anything. I refuse to even look at these sites that you posted because it shows nothing that I need to know. I obviously know it’s important for adoptees to see their original birth certificates & information on their parents. Like I said before, you have been continuously misinterpreting what I was saying. Next time take the time to read what I was saying instead of assuming I’m against something and know nothing of the subject because I do know what I’m talking about.

I would love to see all of your family’s judged and discussed openly as you are doing here. GET A LIFE AND MIND YOUR OWN BUSINESS. Join a specific forum if you must discuss a particular subject ( such as adoption); Someone else’s family is not an open subject!!! Pathetic…
