What the Kidman-Urban Family Story Teaches Us

A biochemist father. A nursing-instructor mother. A first marriage to one of the world's biggest movie stars. Two adopted children from that marriage. A second marriage to a New Zealand country-music star. Two biological/surrogate daughters from the second marriage. Four children across two marriages.

For every family — large or small, famous or otherwise — the Kidman story carries the same lesson. Family trees include adopted children from previous marriages, biological children from current marriages, and children from surrogates. All four daughters and sons are equally Nicole's children — the tree should write all four with equal weight.
