Angelina Jolie's Son, Maddox, Sick Of Being Dragged All Over The World

Why? Because apparently this is the job of a five-year-old: to smooth transitions and to present a friendly Asian face to make her new son feel more at home. That seems kind of vaguely racist and ageist, but whatever.  A source tells Star:

"Maddox is getting to an age where he needs security, consistency and a routine schedule. He doesn't want to move around and wander aimlessly. Maddox doesn't like to travel.  Angelina's never been a homebody so it's hard for her to understand his need for stability."
The source also said that Brad's non-too keen on Angie's "nomadic lifestyle" and also wants "stability" for the growing brood.  Perhaps this is why he stayed home this time.  Someone needs to take care of Shiloh and Sahara, it sure seems like Angie's not doing it. I have taken some time to look around the web at other people's reactions to this latest event in the life of Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt.  While it may seem that some people think that I am too hard on Angelina and overlooking her good works, many have seen past her veneer and made many of the same observations I have.  Here's a sampling of what other commentors have to say:

"Yes, she is doing a great job by adopting and providing them with better material things however she is not bonding with the children especially her own daughter. She pretends to be a kind person by adopting but if she really cared about making a change she would help build schools or use her hollywood image to help raise funds in order to better provide services for those in need."

"She really does hate hereself &/or her parents. Messed up in the head. Dislikes her biological baby, collecting third world babies like handbags. I think Maddox and Zahara run the show in Jolie-Pitt household. Pax will be a second class citizen. I pity Shiloh if anything happens to Brad."

"Poor kids. Money isn't everything. Kids needs stability & structure, which I bet they get very little of traveling around the world, always adding new orphans to the pack, and no permanant father figure (Billy Bob adopted Maddox with Angelina, but you don't ever see him visit the kid). My guess is that Brad will eventually take the white kid (that Angelina doesn't care for because she doesn't get the feeling of selft-importance she gets from saving the other kids), and go the way of Billy Bob.
