Angelina Jolie insists that honesty is the best policy where her children are concerned.

The Changeling star – who recently stepped out in Hollywood to promote the DVD release of Kung Fu Panda – told reporters that she shares everything with her children.

She said, "We talk about orphanages, we talk about their countries and differences, and it's a source of excitement and pride.

"I hope they can talk to me about everything. And by the time they get to be teenagers we'll have formed a sufficient bond."

We're not so sure that Angelina's truth-baring is as effective as she would hope.

After spilling the beans on her romance with Brad, Jennifer Aniston has branded the Tomb Raider star 'very uncool'.
