Angelina Jolie Finds Motherhood Exhausting  Angelina Jolie |
Actress Angelina Jolie who raises six children with partner Brad Pitt finds her real life role of motherhood ‘exhausting’. The Academy award winning actress admits that being a mother is a difficult job and taking care of a big family makes it more complicated.
Jolie also adds that she finds long working hours more comfortable than being at home and taking care of the kids.
She said: 'When me or Brad go away and work on films it gives us a bit of a break from the daily routine of being in the house and looking after the kids. You get spoiled on a film set and in some ways it's easier to be working long hours on a movie than taking care of a large family just because you do get very tired at the end of the day.
'I felt that way especially after the twins were born because the demands on your time are so great. It meant that Brad had to spend a lot more time with the other kids because mommy was too busy or tired.'
However the ‘Salt’ actress is happy to have a successful career and a supporting partner like Pitt.
Jolie added, ‘I’m very grateful to be in a position where I can still work and enjoy that creative part of my life and not feel like I'm neglecting my responsibilities as a mother. I also love having a man like Brad who enjoys looking after the kids the way he does, because it's a lot of work.'
The pair raises six children, Maddox, nine, Pax, seven, Zahara, five, Shiloh, four, and two-year-old twins Knox and Vivienne.
