Angelina Jolie to adopt a Vietnamese child

[Doondoo]

Angelina Jolie has filed papers to adopt a Vietnamese child, the country's top adoption official said Friday.

A U.S. adoption agency representing the Hollywood star filed the papers at Vietnam's International Adoption Agency, said Vu Duc Long, the agency's director.

"She just filed the papers this week," Long said.

Jolie and her superstar partner, Brad Pitt, have three children: 5-year-old Maddox, adopted from Cambodia; 2-year-old Zahara, adopted from Ethiopia; and another daughter, Shiloh, who was born to the couple in May.

3. Hmmmm...

Her daughter is not even 1 year old yet. I guess it seems to me that it will be hard for the children to get the attention and intimacy they require at such tender ages if the parents just keep adding to the flock.
I mean, they are only human right?
Not that their hearts aren't in the right place, but sheesh!

Even with a team of nannies, this seems a little much to me.

Just my .02.

and raise them perfectly well.
