Given that we can adopt American children if we are over 50, why the cheap shots at her age? The little girl is 4. The U.S. is also a sending country which means our children in state care can be adopted by foreigners. To expect a prospective adoptive parent to go live in the 2nd poorest country in the world with unsafe food and water for 18 – 24 months is absurd. Especially when Madonna has 3 other children who are in school. And before you criticize Madonna, why don’t you adopt a child from the U.S. or become a foster parent?! Work to change the laws in our own country that continue to return children to their abusive families until they are permanently damaged.
at least brad & angelina have the decency to adopt, you know, ORPHANS! the first kid had a father living, and this one has a grandparent – how heart wrenching a decision, to give your CHILD away to someone so they can have a better life. Why not adopt a true orphan??? Why put people through that anguish? it’s horrifying!!
The child will be dead before age 18.
