After the divorce, Angelina Jolie raised 6 children on her own including Maddox, Pax Thien, Zahara, Shiloh, Vivienne and Knox.
Her strategy is to let her children explore the world on their own, thereby improving family happiness and staying connected.
Bright Side magazine once commented carefully on Angelina Jolie’s parenting rules and recommended that parents consider whether to apply them or not.
Unique educational approach
Angelina Jolie is very fond of the international education program called Lycée Française. The program allows students to choose different classes according to their interests and skip classes at any time during home schooling.
However, after Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt divorced in 2016, it was reported that they decided to send their children to school in the traditional style.
Regarding their future careers, the Jolie children also do not have any pressure: “None of my children want to become actors,” the Oscar-winning actress revealed.

For Jolie, letting her children express themselves the way they want is a top priority. “Nothing makes me happier than seeing my children feel comfortable being themselves. I like to watch my children’s happiness along with their own style and personality,” she said. Jolie admitted that her style was also very bold when she was in school.
Not too strict
The mother of six children shares: “I don’t want my children to be children who know how to behave perfectly by only saying what is appropriate. To be truly happy, they must find themselves. When I’m at home, I let my children relax and are allowed to snack whenever they like.”
Necessary restrictions
In fact, Angelina Jolie is a thoughtful and considerate mother. She wants to protect her children from the negative aspects of fame, so she values their privacy very much. That’s why the six Jolie children don’t have Instagram or Facebook accounts.

The divorce of parents is a difficult experience for children. For the Jolie children, the scrutiny of the media and the public makes this experience even more difficult.
That’s why Angelina prioritizes healing her children’s wounds rather than making more shocking statements about her personal life. She said that, after this incident, in her eyes, her children were very brave, very strong young men, despite everything.
Angelina Jolie’s father is famous actor Jon Voight, who also enjoys spending time with his children. Jolie revealed that when she divorced, the children really needed their grandfather. That’s why she recently reconnected and became very close with her father.
On a rare occasion, Jolie took to social networks to write a heartfelt tribute on the occasion of her late mother’s 73rd birthday. She shared an old photo of her mother, Marcheline Bertrand, and reminisced about the relationship they once had.
She also recalled her mother’s battle with cancer, thereby advising everyone to have regular health checks, especially for those with a family history of the disease.
Angelina Jolie’s colorful family, including biological and adopted children, is a testament to her boundless love. While her adopted daughter Zahara faced health challenges early on, Jolie’s steadfast support was a great source of motivation for her.
Jolie emphasized that her relationship with Zahara has deep roots, stemming from shared experiences of adversity. However, in addition to her special love for Zahara, she is still conscious of meeting the unique needs of each child, ensuring that love is spread evenly.
