With new babies you have new baby pictures; everybody wants to see the new baby! Even though this event has reoccurred billions of times since we've been keeping score. But! We are still interested in the miracle of birth, once more!

A new baby holds the hope of a generation to either improve, or tear down the humane progress of mankind. That's way too much pressure for the young ones to handle, so it's up to the parents to make the right decision, on a strictly independent basis.

The first test, as to whether or not to expose your child is , is there anybody calling for a picture? In the case of Brad and Angie, there are quite a few calling.

Most recently, Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt sired up this controversy procreating; the way all of us are driven; however for them, it was within the confines of a curious and determined pack of paparazzi.

It was a no brain'er to for this couple, and from a "long distance onlookers" point of view, it makes a lot of sense. Angelina and Brad are a special couple, they have superstar attraction, where their followers worship the very ground they walk on, while they seem to prefer to practice their craft of acting, then use their free time, and influence, employed in real humanitarian issues.

Frankly either world of superstardom, or worship, are very far away even though I'm only an hour away by car, so the attraction for me is the whole phenomenon of hero, and hero worship.

I really don't get it but please continue, it is most entertaining from this facet.

It seems to me, Angie and Brad are on a path less traveled, not very typical but, they are not your typical couple either. From a fans perspective their sincerity is genuine I feel they prefer to perpetuate "good fibes" over bad. You may not see it that way, but no matter what opinion you may have over their endeavors or motivations, you can't deny that they certainly display an uplifting spirit, more than one of tearing down!

With the birth the twins they had to make choices most of us will never have to make in order to insure privacy, including giving birth far from the swarm of prying eyes here in the states and elsewhere in the world, and selling rights for a coveted prize, pictures of their personal little miracles, not typical choices for anyone, but extraordinary to say the least!

Yea we are curious, but we should be even more respectful, the same way you would be we a new mother in your household.

In this case, with mutual respect, from the curious media, and the happy couple's response, this shows that there is still hope in the world, for people to coexist so far away from our natural roots.

I'll say it again, it's a no brain'er! To a media that needs to be controlled, Angelina and Brad satisfied their desire, and at the same time, they channeled all that energy into support for charitable and humane objectives. With grace and ease they managed to preserve their privacy while managing the hounds, and in today's world you must tread far from the path to find such privacy. Touch.

Hollywood should have written the story first, but often, real life paints the picture before our eyes instead. Every case is an individual case and should be handled accordingly. In the case of Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt, I don't think you could have found anyone better to handle this strange modern phenom. In the name of; Judge Roy Bean I say, "That's my rulin'"!
