Angelina Jolie weighs in on how she lets her children be bold
In 2019, when the ‘Maleficent’ actress was asked about her 6 children, she had nothing but good things to share. The star furthermore talked about how much she prioritizes their well-being and how, as a mother and as a public figure, it falls on her to give them a good upbringing.
Talking about the same, the actress revealed, “Knowing our true self is a very important question for all of us. Especially a child. I think kids need to be able to say, ‘Here’s who I am, and what I believe.’ We can’t prevent them from experiencing pain, heartache, physical pain, and loss. But we can teach them to live better through it.”
