Angelina Jolie hopes to be her kids’ safe place

During an interview with Sydney’s Morning Herald, Angelina Jolie discussed about her kids and how she wants to be their safe place.

The 45-year-old said, “My mother was very gentle. I can be many things in my work and in my life, but I am very warm and gentle with my children.”

She continued, “That kindness and warmth is a foundation that’s unbelievably important. I hope that I’ve been able to be that (for my own children), that I’m that warm, safe place.”

Jolie concluded, “Because – and it’s maybe a funny thing to say – but considering what my different jobs are, or what people think they know of you, or what you feel you have to be in the world, in truth none of those things are what you really are. Who you are to your children is everything.”
