Angelina Jolie shares with reporters that she hopes her kids will see the world for what it is – and not just as the bubble of Hollywood.  She shared with the press on Saturday at the Palm Springs Film Festival:

“I’m not one of those moms who kind of lectures [my kids].  But I do tell them, whenever I go on a trip, where I’m going and why. And on some occasions, they’ve come with me to different refugee camps. And they also go to their home countries a lot.  Hopefully they live in the world, and they see the world really as it is, outside of Hollywood.  If they really live in the world and spend time with friends around the world from all different types of backgrounds, they [will] just see things as they are.”

Angelina also shared how she keeps her kids’ heritage present in their everyday lives, including birthday celebrations.  Zahara turned 7 years old yesterday, and Angelina said:

“We make sure we’re very aware of her culture and her heritage.  She’s an African-American girl, so we make that a part of anything she does. So that’ll be a part of her [birthday].”
