Going to Syria with your kids falls into questionable and perhaps negligent. Kids don’t need to save the world just yet they need to grow up and get to do kid things. My growing up wasn’t first aid in the gulf war or habitat for humanity in Bosnia. I can’t blame this being questioned. If he had issues with…

Um, not like Syria is going through a war or anything...

lol right? Of all the things you can be upset at Brad about, I don’t think that this is one of them.

This is my take of Brad’s perspective as well. I am all for children learning about the world but I am skeptical of taking them to places to active war zones. People are trying to flee Syria, if Angelina wants to work with the UN, IMO she should do so alone.

You’re trolling right? You’re not seriously describing sending children to a warzone to “enhancing their worldview?”

No, it’s more like don’t take my children into an active war zone.

Gotta say, if my wife was taking my kids into an active warzone, I’d probably be drinking and arguing too.

Not wanting your kids in a war zone is a legit complaint.

Yep. I mean I support enhancing children’s world view and all, but if the person I co-parent with has some concerns about where i am taking the kids, I would listen to them...

You can “enhance” a child’s worldview without putting them in the middle of an active war zone.

Or he might just have had a very reasonable concern about sending his children to an extremely dangerous country.

I’m all for expanding a kid’s worldview, but Syria is a literal active war zone. If i were in Pitt’s situation, I’d voice some very definite concerns about putting my children in harm’s way as well. We’re not talking about falling off a bike, nobody disputes that people are getting killed regularly and with great…

I dunno, the “maybe don’t take our children into a war zone where even UN convoys are bombed” is not that bad a tack . . .

Kids need some stability though. School and a daily routine are important.

I’d have a hard time taking my kids to an actively war ravaged place like Syria. I see his point. As an adult she can go where she wants - her person, her decision, but he does have equal say in where the kids go, no?

This is true. Part of the tragedy of this is that, after it happened, women who were genuine rape victims at UVA came forward, with some of them saying, “I would have talked to her.” Erdley wanted the most outrageous, most twisted story she could find, damn the consequences. She didn’t even fact check the most basic…

the entirety of the blame for this shit-show lies with Rolling Stone.

I recall that there were plenty of people who said maybe we should pump the brakes on this story since parts of it aren’t adding up. Granted, those people were tarred and feathered on Jezebel and Gawker, but they certainly existed. One particular person was roundly ridiculed for daring to question the story and…

Agreed. I mean, “Jackie” is clearly a lying nutjob but precisely because she’s a lying nutjob and a college student, the entirety of the blame for this shit-show lies with Rolling Stone.

Even people with journalism degrees from Columbia.
