'Fearful' Angelina Jolie turns to son Maddox to keep Pax, Shiloh in line

Angelina Jolie is grappling to handle teenage kids alone and has asked her eldest kid Maddox Jolie-Pitt to step in.

Angelina particularly fears for her kids Shiloh, 19, and Pax, 21.

The Salt star has reportedly given her growing kids significant freedom and worries about them after Pax had multiple road accidents in the past few years.

"Angelina is brushing this latest incident off as a case of Pax experimenting and pushing boundaries," an insider told Radar Online.

"But it's no secret that she's struggling to keep her kids in line," they added.

Shiloh, on the other hand, has also been stressing her mom out. The budding dancer has been hanging out with aspiring model and fellow dancer Keoni Rose.

"Angelina gives her a lot of freedom and insists she totally trusts her," the insider shared.

"But, of course, it's stressful seeing her making her own way. She's at the stage where she's rebelling, and that's worrisome," they added.

The actress reportedly relied on Maddox, 23, to keep his younger siblings in line. Especially after her 2014 split from Brad Pitt.

"Angie always depended on Maddox to keep the younger kids in line,” said the mole.

“He was very much the man of the house, who stepped up massively when she and Pitt broke up – even though he was only 15 at the time," the insider explained.

However, the eldest is now traveling a lot and "focused on building his own life" and hardly around."

The insider revealed: "And Angie has to fend for herself because she doesn't really trust anyone except Maddox with highly personal family stuff.”

Angelina Jolie also shares daughters Zahara, Vivienne, and son Knox with Brad Pitt.
