I heard that she is also putting some money to the country or town where she got the baby but she's also throwing her cult beliefs with the centres as well. Great just what a country wants. Money that comes with a cult.
Also why is she adopting a boy that already has a father? She should have given the money to the child's dad so HE could raise his own child. There are kids out there that have NO family at all left.
Angelina also did the same a took a child that had a grandmother who wanted to raise the child but didn't have the money. You'd think that Angelina would have sponsored the child and other families.

My thought exactly, why not help the entire village? It's so narcissistic, they take the children from their homes, from extended family and culture (unless the area is endangered, then, how do you choose one child to save?) I heard of it yesterday and thought, It's like the new slavery. Taking these children from their "Roots", their culture, and using then like props. I know the industry has a problem with this kind of behavior but it seems very selfish. Like, "I want one!"...I'm so wonderful! I adopted a third world baby! (and ignore children in America, why not adopt a medically needy American child?...oh, less press...or an American town in need of assistance, a school a family...). Or, it it must be Africa (why not central America?) Why not bring some income earning trade to the community or spend money for water and farm equipment, why not have a village sing your praises?
Maybe the gift of a lifetime for ONE child (or two)...but it seems to fall short of everything except press potential.

or even help the homeless and the poor in the usa. Nobody realizes how many peepz r homeless and hungry. the us has poor schools and education, while i was teaching in an innercity there were 32 kids 2 one teacher. this 5th grade class has students who could not read, write, or do multiplication, divide etc.. There are schools that dont even have computers for the students to use. so maybe angelina, madonna should stop trying 2 b princess frickn dianna, and look at their own country!!!! yes peepz we have villages in the united states that dont even have schools!!!!

Hey Zen call it what it is, she BOUGHT that baby from it's father. It isn't adoption, it's more like buying a pet. Some of the media have dubbed this the latest Hollywood trend, who knows, maybe they hit the nail on the head.

I would have to agree with you. Sometimes you need to help the many instead of the few.
