CBL, I think that’s because the boys probably go to private schools, while Violet’s school is more public? So they can take pics of Ben or Jennifer from a distance, while the Beckham boys probably go to a school where the privacy is really high.

I’m really confused about her comment about never getting photographed picking the boys up from school. The Garner-Afflecks also live in LA (well, I think they maybe actually live in Brentwood, but still, that’s pretty close to LA), and Violet gets photographed being picked up from school all the time!

this is a recent quote taken from an interview with Seal, here is what he has to say about the beckhams and their children:

“I have nothing but the utmost respect for David and Victoria.

“I believe you can tell a lot about people through their kids and Brooklyn, Romeo and Cruz are three of the most respectable, well mannered kids you’d ever come across. They are a very classy family.”

well people that actually know her – like for example heidi and seal, say how wonderful a person she is, david is and more importantly how lovely their children are and how unbelievably polite they are. now i think i believe them over people who dont actually know them! recent pictures of the boys show happy a seemingly normal young boys who adore both each other and their parents.

for some reason people just like to hate on the beckhams especially in england. the british media are absolutely vile to victoria beckham for no specific reason.

like yvonne i have also met and worked with victoria beckham. I work in PR and have on several occasions met her, and she was absolutely lovely, in fact id goes as far as to say that she was quite possibly the nicest celeb i have worked with and extremely professional – one stand out moment being when she introduced herself to everyone by saying “hi im victoria nice to meet you” which completely wasn’t necessary because of course we all knew her, but for a celebrity to not just assume you know them is quite refreshing, and extremely polite!

My favorite celebrity kids! The Daily Mail had pictures of David with the boys at a Lakers game a few days ago – they were all over the place when he left for a few minutes!

I want so badly to not like this woman (I don’t know why, it’s just this feeling I get…) but I can’t! She seems like she is so dedicated to her sons and a great mama. And good for her for instilling manners into her children. Manners and children seem to have gone down the drain in the past few years, at least in my family.

Sorry guys, I should probably have been more specific. It was a work connection, and subsequently, I met with her on more than one occasion. I guess I just feel that to treat people nicely costs nothing, and to choose not to do this anyway, to me it’s just a bit rude. I’m openminded, it’s possible that the few occasions I met her she was just having bad days or something, but I just didn’t get good vibes from her.

Artemis – it’s great that you’re a fan, and I’m not calling on her parenting abilities either, but I think it’s nice if people are friendly and warm to others. Like I said, it costs nothing to be nice to someone.

I’m sorry that happened Yvonne! Most people I’ve spoken too that have met her say she’s totally awesome and so down to earth! I guess it just depends on the context of where you met her.

Why does she have to be friendly at all? Im also a very cold person. The point is she’s an awesome mom, the last thing I’d think she’ll turn out to be! I really love the Becks.
