Jon Voight and Angelina Jolie on the Mends?

CHQT…. :LOL: Did I do it?

89 COALHARBOURQT

I don’t know if this is true or not, but I read somewhere that he brought one of his girlfriends over to Angie’s mother’s house. This was when the children were younger. This man didn’t work, take movie roles, a lot of times because he thought he was too good for certain roles. Thus the family suffered because he wasn’t making any money. It all seems very nice to have that two parent household. The loving mother and the strong protective father. But in more cases than we know, that is not the case. No one can say what another person should do when that person has been betrayed by a loved one. Angie will do what is best for her and her children. Because he is old is not a reason to forgive him. Especiall if he hasn’t changed. Judging from his appearance on Bill O’rielly he doesn’t seem to be too contrite. Peace.

So very odd that so many people want her to reconcile with her father and act like it’s one of those family feuds over something stupid when (usually) women force family members to take sides over who disrespected who and they STILL haven’t returned that casserole dish or paid back the money we loaned them for the riding mower!!

Do they GET that this is much deeper than that?!?! That not all relationships are healthy just because someone donated sperm somewhere along the way? Lylian was amazing in her post.

Passing Through, you are so right. This has no doubt been about the 200th chance she’s given him. This was also much more than accusing her of mental health problems — it’s WHY he was saying she was mentally ill. Because she adopted a Cambodian boy, because she wanted to go to dangerous areas. He was not supportive, but attacking of her very soul and her children. He was perfectly fine with her fame, and the antics that made it grow, but not with her bringing into the family non-white children, or leaving the country to help others. After the abuse he had put on her and her brother and mother (have you heard from ANYONE that has had a healthy relationship with Jon Voight???), she didn’t want it to continue to another generation and her children.

James Haven needed even less incentive. He was already done and that was that, but he’s not as famous, so no one pays attention to his even MORE disdainful words for his father.

Jon Voight is an evil presence in their lives, and if it weren’t for the lips, he has no evidence of ever being a “father” to either Angie or James.

Besides, I know that is something that Angie’s been thinking about for years.
She is a tough girl, as somebody said.
I really don’t see what Brad Pitt can do.
It’s probably a little ridiculous to say that he should
support her no matter what she decides.
Wouldn’t that be sort of normal?
She always supports him.

This guy is a “HOLLYWOOD ARISTOCRACY”, but a VERY BAD PERSON too.

Let them decide, it is nobody’d business but theirs.

He’s not living with them, just visiting. That’s alright.

Oh and one more thing…

don’t tell me this guy had no idea that her mother had cancer all those years.

As I see it, all those antics and deadbeat behaviour was a way to get back at MB. Talking bad about the kids in public was also a way to get back at MB.

Otherwise, what parent goes out to bad-mouth his or her kids..particularly if said parent is divorced.

A2B - well there ya go! I know that forgiveness would be nice (and for all we know she may have forgiven him but feel it is not appropriate for him to be involved in their lives), but if he can’t support her choices to adopt the children she has adopted and do the humanitarian work that she does, then he is not going to be a healthy person to have in their family dynamic.

It’s unfortunate - good people want to see a happy ending - but sometimes it is just too complicated. Emotional abuse is so much more difficult to quantify (or qualify) than physical or sexual abuse.

Fans should keep their opinions to themsleves. Angie knows the kind of dad she has and she said when they reconcile there will be boundaries. Stop washing dirty laundries in the public as fans. Tabloids feed on this nonsense. If you love them, protect them and pray for them to do what’s best.

Fans should stop feeding the tabloids with information. They copy things from here and twist it. Please be positive and sensible.

kearnie - pretty unbelievable isn’t it? Angie’s Mom was battling cancer off and on for 7 years, and meanwhile she has to deal with this creep who was absent for years on end but thinks he knows how Angie should best live her life. I think she has been pretty easy on him in the media considering…

dina #1 and coal…..Ok I am going to chime in for the last time.
Me thinks JV could care less about Angie, James or the grandkids…Let’s not forget HE kak JV has his godchild he brags about and drags around with him !!!!!
Me thinks, he knows his daughter is exceptional in every which way, but JV has known that for years….Me thinks, he wants to get to know Brad who owns Plan B so the aging a s s hole can get a job again!!!!

Nobody here is telling anyone what they should do. WE are having a rational discussion in a PUBLIC FORUM about details which are public information. Has it ever occurred to you that our discussion about this might show a tabloid or two that nobody is buying this bullsh*t about Angie being harsh and unforgiving - that she might have a JUSTIFIABLE REASON OR TWO for cutting him out of her life. Or is that what you are really afraid of?
