Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie's eight-year-old adopted son Maddox is already a humanitarian. A source said: "Maddox is only eight, but from his visits to places where people are not as lucky as he is, he’s learned the lessons of being a humanitarian.

He spent time in New Orleans, where poverty is common and things were hard after Hurricane Katrina." Pitt has been very active in helping the local community in New Orleans, and has even been encouraged to run for mayor. The source said of Maddox: "He’s been on the site where Brad’s heading a homes development for people who lost their houses. Brad tells them it’s important to help your fellow man. He always adds, 'and your family, too'." Like Jolie, Maddox has also visited orphanages in foreign countries. A friend says: "Sometimes the kids will fight over a toy, and Maddox, instead of handing it to the crying kid, he’ll explain how it’s great that they have almost everything they want."
