Despite having six kids, Academy Award winner Angelina Jolie recently confessed that she once never really wanted to become a mother, Today reported.

"It's strange. I never wanted to have a baby. I nerver wanted to be pregnant. I never babysat.  I never thought of myself as a mother," Jolie-Pitt told the Associated Press during her return to Cambodia for her film "First They Killed My Father" after 16 years since she shot "Lara Croft: Tomb Raider." It was during an early trip to this place with the U.N. that brought her to certain realizations about motherhood.

In addition to now 14-year-old Maddox, Jolie and Brad Pitt have also adopted 12-year-old Pax and 11-year-old daughter Zahara. They are both biological parents to daughter Shiloh, who is now 9, and 7-year-old twins Knox and daughter Vivienne.  It almost seems unbelievable that the mother of all these adorable kids didn't have an ounce of desire for becoming one someday. To Jolie, she knew that this is the moment where her life is in line, and she thinks she is where she should really be.

"When I first came to Cambodia, it changed me. It changed my perspective. I realized there was so much about history that I had not been taught in school, and so much about life that I needed to understand, and I was very humbled by it," she added. Jolie grew up in Los Angeles where she felt "real emptiness."

The Cambodians struck her with graciousness and warmth in spite of the fact that a tragic occurrence has taken an estimated 2 million lives. It prompted her to contact the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees before finally joining as a Goodwill ambassador in 2001.

Filmmaker Rithy Panh, who happens to be Jolie's co-producer, joked about her being a Cambodian during her previous life. "I don't think they authorized Hollywood to come here," Panh said. "They authorized Angelina Jolie. It's not the same. She is special. She has a special relationship with the Cambodian people. There is a mutual respect."
