Feeling Brad Pitt's "Pain"

OK, usually Brainy Mom leaves celebrity gossip and the like to others, but Brad Pitt has pulled me in most unexpectedly with his comment that he is ready for another child. Here is what my beloved Brad said:

"It's the most fun I've ever had and also the biggest pain ... I've ever experienced," he said when asked what it was like to become a family with four children in a short space of time. "I love it and can't recommend it any more highly — although sleep is nonexistent."

And here is the email I'm thinking of sending to Brad:

My Dear Brad. . . maybe you should think it over a little more before you take on responsibility for yet ANOTHER human life. I mean, we all know that you and Angie have more money than you could ever possibly spend, but if you already find your children the biggest pain you've ever experienced. . .just wait!

Eventually those kids won't be so little, cute, or agreeable and then how much of a "pain" will they be? What about when they become teenagers, start dating, want to borrow your Ferrari, or want to become ACTORS? What then, Brad?

"Sleep is nonexistent". . .oh, really? Just wait until your staying up all night worrying if they are okay, when they will be home, why they haven't called you back after you left all those messages. You had better enjoy what little sleep you are getting now, Brad, because I think you are going to need it!

And why go for more quantity? Why not put a little effort into producing quality human beings out of the children you already have? They're not like puppies or stuffed animals. . . they are people. . .and you need to determine what void in your life you are trying to fill. Maybe it's time for a little introspection and delving into your psyche, Brad.

Just think about it a little bit more, that's all I'm asking.

Best wishes to Angie and the little ones!

Your friend,

Brainy Mom

P.S.-- If you do go through with this, you might want to look for a larger home, such as the one on the right.
