Like mother, like son!
Angelina Jolie says she is passing down her knife obsession to her seven-year-old son Maddox.
"My mom took me to buy my first daggers when I was 11 or 12," Jolie says in the new issue of W magazine. "And I've already bought Maddox some."
The actress has long been obsessed with knives.
In a 2003 interview with 20/20, she admitted that, as a teen, she once had a relationship that involved ritual self-mutilation.
"I got knives out and had a night where we attacked each other... it felt so primitive and it felt so honest... and then I had to deal with, you know, not telling my mother, hiding things, wearing gauze bandages to high school," she said.
She said she no longer engages in such activities now that she's a mother.

ETA: Apparently the full quote is "My mom took me to buy my first daggers when I was 11 or 12," she recalls. "And I've already bought Maddox some things. We take him to a special shop." She emphasizes that the knife blades are dulled so they're not dangerous, and that the purchases are accompanied by discussions about violence. But, she says, "we also talk about samurais and about the idea of defending someone as good. We talk about everything." thanks,![[info]](http://l-stat.livejournal.com/img/userinfo.gif?v=92.2)

This article is a joke, right? Please tell me it is a joke

If I quickly figured out how to hurt my brother using Barbie's Malibu convertible, how long would it take a kid to stabbity-stab the other?

I can haz contekst.
She didn't say she put them in his crib.
You do not automatically decide to cut yourself simply because you have knives.
People apparently have no faith in their restraint.
