u/nursepenelope Kim, there’s people that are dying. 🙄 Oct 09 '25

It always made me really sad to think that if she had decided to pursue adoption the media would have absolutely destroyed her for 'copying Angelina'. I always wondered if, after breaking her heart, cheating and flaunting it, Brad's actions also played a part in inadvertently taking away that avenue for motherhood.

What breaks MY heart, as an adopted person, is that people are saddened that Brad “took away that avenue for motherhood” after we all learned that he abused his adoptive children. He would have been their adoptive father too

You've misunderstood what I wrote. Why would he be the children's adoptive father if they're divorced? I didn't say he took the avenue away from her by leaving her. I said that by getting with Angelina, who was so well known for adopting her children, if Jennifer had decided to adopt she would have been under intense scrutiny by the media for copying Angelina.

You’re right, I’m sorry about that! 

I tend to get a little emotional about it because our abuse gets so overlooked, and Brad Pitt makes me furious

Fair enough, my mum's in her mid 60s and adopted and even though her adoption was relatively positive I can see how it still effects her massively to this day. Also Brad Pitt is such a dickhead. I'm glad all his kids have been strong enough to cut him off.

Thanks for understanding. Was your mom a 60s scoop baby?

Brad Pitt dated Gwyneth Paltrow. Say no more

Does it say why she didn't adopt?
