Brad Pitt's Parents Upset Over Photo?

Hmmmm....I wonder if Brad Pitt's parents are miffed over the picture on the cover of W of Angelina breastfeeding the twins? I thought they were beautiful pictures but I guess I could see where grandparents might feel like they were exploiting the kids. What do you think?

Brad Pitt's parents, Bill and Jane, are said to be "upset" at the arty black-and-white photos the actor took of partner Angelina Jolie for the November issue of the fashion and culture magazine W.

A source tells Star magazine, "Brad's dad won't talk about it — that means he's upset.

"Brad's mom feels they're using their children as a marketing campaign tool and thinks it's unacceptable."

Pitt and Jolie have a long relationship with W Magazine that started when the two worked with photographer Steven Klein for a series called "Domestic Bliss" in 2005.

Personally I loved the b/f photo (and I'm not too big on breastfeeding photos). She's not wearing make-up and she just looks so peaceful!

I'm so sick of people having issues with a freaking breastfeeding picture. Maybe if Angelina was half naked on the cover with her licking her lips, his parents would like it better?

So freaking what if they are promoting breastfeeding? Throw them to the wolves. Hang them. Not the natural act of breastfeeding!!! Such horror! The next thing you know, people will have an issue with child birth!

I don't get the sense it's the BREASTFEEDING that the grandparents take issue with, but rather the intimate pictures of their grandchildren on the cover of a magazine. My GUESS would be that if they truly are upset - it's not just THIS picture, it's alllll of the pictures of the children.

I'm not sure I get it then. Don't they donate most of the money they are paid for pictures? Or is that just the first photos? Personally, I'd rather see some nice photos that Brad and Angelina approved then some that the paps chased them down to get.

I bet some of that picture money has paid for Brad's parents' house and other things.... Wonder if they said no to gifts and things that could have been paid for by these pictures that they don't support.

I like the pics, and I would probably tell my parents to mind their own business!

I think the cover pic is beautiful!
I'm sure the pics were all gorgeous, and I'd bet that Brad's dad does have something against breastfeeding. If he were upset about baby photos in general being public and it's not because they're nursing, why is this just now a story?

I don't know why they would be surprised. They've always been pretty out front with their kids, adopted or not. Deal with it, they're A list celebs, they'll be in the spotlight.
