Jolie Urges Her Kids to Get Educated and Become Good People
4/28/06
Angelina Jolie will insist her kids get good grades at school because
she wants them to "do good things" and become "good
people".
The actress-turned-humanitarian, who has two adopted children, Maddox
and Zahara, and boyfriend Brad
Pitt's baby on the way, is campaigning for better education in Africa
and she insists her own children will prove her theory that every child
deserves a good education.
Of Ethiopian daughter Zahara, Jolie says, "She's so smart and so
strong and her potential as a woman one day is great. To multiply her by
thousands... that is the thing I can see so clearly when I look at
her."
And she fears her adopted son, Maddox, would have been a street child
in his native Cambodia if Jolie hadn't taken him in and given him the
means for a better life.
She adds, "In all probability what would have happened to Maddox
he would've probably been one of the kids doing the garbage-picking in the
streets and he would have been on his own.
"I'm happy for them that they're gonna have all this education and
I hope with it they do good things and they're good people."
