CHICAGO, Ill. --

Brad Pitt has become the proud father to six kids in the last three years – and he has no plans to shirk his parental responsibilities, even if it kills him.

“They’re trying to kill us! They really are,” the star of upcoming film, “The Curious Case of Benjamin Button” joked with Oprah on “The Oprah Winfrey Show” on Wednesday. “We’ll get them to bed and one will show up about a half hour later. They can’t sleep and want to read books and we’ll do that for about an hour and a half and that one will fall asleep and we’ll just be fading off and someone else — I know they’ve got shifts, they got it worked out.”

But the proud papa, who leads one of the world’s most famous families with partner Angelina Jolie, wants to keep adding to his brood.

“It’s the most interesting, most fulfilling rewarding thing I’ve ever experienced,” he told Oprah. “So why should I stop?”

Calling his family “the thing I’m most proud of,” he gushed about their latest additions, twins Vivienne Marcheline and Knox Leon.

“They’re lovely,” he said of the four-month-old babies. “It’s very strange though, he kind of looks like me and she kind of looks like Angie.”

And despite their difficulties, according to Brad, having children has given him a parental super-power.

“I’m impervious to poo, snot, urine [and] vomit,” he said. “In the beginning, it was ‘Oh God, oh, how do they vomit that much,’ now it’s just, ‘Honey, come here, see that, you need to chew your food.’”
