Madonna -Adoption farce  

Thursday 6 September 2007

So Madonna's publicist has declared that her adoption dream is still on track. What a mockery...

Last year the celeb trend was little bony dogs that would fit in a hand bag and wear pretty pink diamond collars. Wow have things moved on. The battle of the celeb status has reached new heights. To be in the running the accessory must be alive. The more remote the ethnic background the bigger the status.

Her chances of adopting baby 'David' should of been stopped the minute she took him from his home country. The Hague convention for the protection of children was put into place to stop baby trafficking and the sale of babies. So why aren't the laws been put into force.

Inter-country adoption can mean the difference between life and death for some children. You only have to see a documentary about the dying rooms in china to know that. That doesn't mean you can just go and pick one. The law is that you have to be approved in this country through the adoption agency procedure before you can even approach the other country. Madonna brought a child into this country illegally and not a damn thing has been done about it.

What the f#c# is that all about! She says she fell in love with the child and wants to raise him as her own and his future will be bright, OK, maybe not her exact words, but along those lines. Bollocks! If she really meant that then the money that it will cost her to raise the lad why wouldn't she give that to the child's family. The money would probably raise his whole village and provide a better future for a generation of kids like him.

I'm fascinated to see what the next Celeb accessory is going to be. I just hope for the poor kids sake it isn't white middle class children or designer cats!

    But couldn't she change some attitudes if she u-turned and spoke out against irresponsible TRA's? She could start a charity that took the money from potential adoptive parents and donated to the kids families; the kids get taken care of (by their parents) and the donators get to do their christian thing and get accepted to their heaven?

    Happy days!

    Simon you are so right. If she could see past the me, me, me and satisfying her whims it would make a huge difference to possibly thousands of kids of our future. The trouble is these celebs have the notion that they are saving these kids. What from I'm not sure, maybe its a life without carpets and microwaves that they find so appalling! Madonna's little gadget has a loving, ok poor, but loving family that she alone could make sure stayed together. That sickens me!
