“I was adopted at 6 months old and given some of the most special and loving people as my siblings.” Angelina adopted Maddox on her own in 2002. Brad hasn't been seen with any of his children in a long time, nor has he talked publicly about them in years. So far, Shiloh is the only one to have legally changed her last name from "Jolie-Pitt" to "Jolie." She concluded her speech by turning to face Angelina and saying, “I think back to a quote I saw years ago that said, ‘I am a strong woman because a strong woman raised me.’ Thank you, Mom.” “I wanna cry. I remember photos from when she first adopted little Zahara,” added another. “She was just the cutest little thing. Now seeing her grow into this kind, confident young woman is so heartwarming. Angelina has done such an amazing job raising all of her children, and it shows in how much they love and revere her.” Someone else attributed this to something apparently called “attunement,” which is about how we “learn our mannerisms and facial posture from our caregivers,” meaning that “adopted children can often end up looking a little like their parents.”
