Father Wanted Madonnas Adopted Child Back

I’m all for saving the world one person at a time, but I don’t understand the celebrity adoption craze lately. Madonna has been visiting Malawi (which I had never before heard of) first denying then actually moving forward in adopting a young “orphan” boy.

At first account, the boy’s father and grandmother were delighted. I know cultures and language are different across this big blue marble, but in English, an orphan is a child without parents — typically a father and mother.

The one-year old boy, now revealed with the rock-star like name of David Banda, did lose his mother as she gave birth to him. The father placed him in this “orphanage” for his own well-being, but never expected him to actually be adopted. (It kind of reminds be of a pawn shop.)

It also appears that is a really good to be a high-profile celebrity with tons of money, as all of the red tape and usual procedures which are put in place to protect the child from crazies were waived for the “material girl”.

(note to self: become high-profile celebrity with tons of money.)
