In an new interview in this week's issue of People, Angelina Jolie opens about her family. She calls herself the disciplinarian of the family while Brad Pitt gets to be the good buy. Jolie admits that she and Pitt have different parenting styles when it comes to raising Maddox, 5; Zahara, almost 2; and Shiloh, 7 months: "I am the disciplinarian," she says. "Brad can be, but if Z doesn't get the bottle from me, she'll very quickly run to Daddy."
When asked which of the three kids rules the Jolie-Pitt roost, she says, "I bet if you asked Brad, he'd say Zahara. Mad is very smart, but he's got a certain sense of calm. Zahara is possibly the funniest person I've ever met in my life. So dramatic and creative and loud and charming. She's definitely the biggest personality in the house."
The thing that makes her most proud about her family is their happiness, she explains "Somebody said to us recently that they were happy kids, and we talked about how much that meant to us to hear. And they're good kids. God knows how we managed to do that – but they're good kids."
Jolie admits that the family's humanitarian and film work creates a somewhat nomadic existence for their family, but feels that they'll settle in one spot someday. "It's hard, and maybe one day we'll have to stay in one place," she says. "I'm sure (the kids are) going to be 18 and say, 'God, I just want to stay in one place.' They'll never want to leave home!"
