It has been a big debate in the last little bit whether or not Madonna was allowed to adopt a child from Malawi, a country in southeast Africa. You would think what a strange debate to have right? Here is a child who could be given so much opportunity with all the money Madonna has, and an chance to have a family. Why shouldn’t that be allowed? Well, because Madonna hardly takes care of her own, as well as her being a dysfunction family. So where are the boundaries?
On Friday, April 3rd, Madonna was rejected by Judge Esme Chombo to adopt a 3-year-old child from Malawi because she has not been a resident of the country for the last 18 months says NYTimes. Madonna has adopted before, her son David Banda which was completed in 2008 but Judge Esme was warned against celebrity adoptions saying it could lead to child ‘trafficking’. Anyone could come to Malawi and arrange for adoption but could have great consequences on the children.
A ton of people have said that Madonna is juts doing this for attention and seen the publicity Brangelina get for adopting children from 3rd world countries and wants the same. Everyone thinks that Madonna is adopting for the wrong reasons. As nice as it is for a child to be adopted and some wait for this moment for their entire livesat the same time, it has to be accepted into a loving and functional family which might not be the case with Madonna. So then again I ask, where are the boundaries drawn?
