With fingers being pointed from all over that Will and wifey Jada “exploit” their children by having them singing, rapping and acting all before they’re even in their teens, Jada sat down with Redbook Magazine to clear the air. She made some really valid points!! Check out what she had to say after the jump. Do you feel that she and Will are exploiting Jaden and Willow??
RB: When people comment on the way you raise your kids—or, as some have suggested, “exploit” them—does that piss you off?
JPS: I understand it. They’re looking at something from the outside that seems so enormous and dangerous. I have my moments where I get more frustrated than upset. But I also know that our reality is one that most people don’t share and can’t imagine, and there’s no fault in that. And if anything happens to my children, I give all those people out there judging me the right to burn me at the stake. Go for it, because I’ll deserve it!
RB: Have you ever explained to Jaden and Willow that life as they know it is not typical for most kids their age?
JPS: Let me tell you what I fear most: Them growing up like I did, in a house with drugs in a war zone, where if I walked out my door I could be shot. Hollywood ain’t nothing compared to that! Growing up in the streets of Baltimore, or the streets of Philly where Will grew up—I’d rather have my kids here. It still makes me nervous that they’re part of something that isn’t totally real, but it’s up to Will and me to teach them what’s real and what’s not.
Ppl need 2 mind there business more times… Ppl r just evil in thought more times… They r able 2 expose there children 2 life many wish their kids could dream of seeing… Sum ppl just need 2 worry about there kids n all the dumb n mess up things they push there kids 2wards..
