Unless you’ve been living under a rock, you should know that Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt announced they were married last week.

And, unless you’ve been living under a (slightly smaller but still moderately isolating) rock, you should also know that Angelina’s wedding dress looked like this:

Jolie’s veil was covered in designs created by her six children, embroidered by the fancy folk at Versace.

And that, according to one US writer, was an example of “parenting run amok”.

Jane Ridley writes for the New York Post:

Them’s fighting words – but is there some truth to them?

Is Jolie’s new ‘eight-in-the-marital-bed’ mantra just an extension of this lack of parental control? A lack of a distinction between the parents in charge and their, well, charges?

After all, it was Brangelina’s kids who wanted their parents to get married in the first place.

(Their mum and dad weren’t fussed about the whole thing, saying that they would want to wait until gay marriage was legalised.)

Or, is the reality that this was Brad and Angelina’s wedding, not Jane Ridley’s, so frankly, her opinion is of little consequence or importance?

Did you get married after having kids? How much of a role do you think kids should play in a wedding ceremony?
